How could I not add "this one's by me" blog to my reading? There is only one post but I am truly looking forward to more. After all, I am a bit partial to the authoress of that blog...
Some thoughts on Richard III. Unfortunately, I didn't pay enough attention when I learned about him in school (my own or the kids' apparently!). We are reading Daughter of Time at the AO forum and I'm learning a lot of interesting things!
Some DIY gift ideas, both at the same place. Stationary Kit and Baking/Cooking Kit. I can see doing this for both the kids. For other people for gifts as well.
Young women, motherhood, and education; that is the theme in these posts: Habits and Motherhood at Learning to Live; Thoughts on Education for Young Women at the Common Room. Both have book titles that I'd be interested in having a further look.
Nature Study. There are quite a few areas that are lacking in our CM homeschool. Nature study and Shakespeare seem to be the two most dominant at the moment. I'm always reading others' suggestions and pining over their experiences. I really like Tammy's suggestion of setting a temperature limit. We often feel like it's too hot or cold- but it rarely truly is!
And speaking of CM and education (two common topics here), Mama Squirrel linked to Andrew Kern's post titled "For Gold's Sake," where he says that people "need the bread of angels and we give them only the husks of pigs." Wow. Good read.
Reading that made me think back to another post I read recently by an Australian CM homeschooler. Her's is about the Education Manifesto. After searching, here is the post from Journey and Destination with CM's quote on Science of Relations, which means there's more to life and learning than making money.
