Classical Writing Primer – Winter – Set of 4

Classical Writing is a writing curriculum for beginners all the way through high school. Kathy’s primary inspiration for the Primer series came from the works of Charlotte Mason, a highly respected educator of the late 19th and early 20th century. Charlotte Mason brought back the ideas of short lessons, copywork, narration, nature study, and picture study to the homes and schools of her day. She knew that young children needed ample time to play and dream each day and that short lessons were the most effective means of preparing the child for the more rigorous education to come in later years. Charlotte Mason’s ideas have been rediscovered by many home and private educators in recent years.  These are the basic principles we have followed in developing our Primer series for primary grade students.

The aim of the Primers is to help teachers establish and maintain a simple and consistent weekly routine of copywork, narration, nature study, and picture study with primary grade students.  We have done all the preparation work for you so that you may spend more time engaged in instruction with your student.  There are also exercises each day which most students will be able to complete on their own.
