Another year of CC

We recently wrapped up another year of Classical Conversations!  This is a group that meets for 24 weeks during the school year and follows a set curriculum.  Each week the kids learn something about history, Latin, English grammar, geography, math, timeline, a science experiment and fine arts. They also do a short presentation each week.   Each CC day is 3 1/2 hours of class time and one hour of lunch and fellowship.

This year Emma decided to also go fro Timeline Master!  This meant that she had to recite the ENTIRE CC Timeline, which is "161 events of human history, representing major cultures and every continent."  Here she is toward the end...

She did it!
