Are you reading Charlotte Mason's homeschooling series? Are you discussing them with a group of homeschool moms? No? Why not?

I know - between Driver's Ed for a few weeks, music lessons on Thursdays, small group on Tuesdays, and scouts most Mondays you just aren't sure where to fit it in.

(You have to be able to get groceries some time!)

Well, now the book discussion has come to you. Every Tuesday afternoon when school is over and it's not quite time for dinner I'd like to invite you to tea. Just pop into Periscope (amberlynnbenton) at 4pm EST and we will chat for a few minutes while people arrive and then dive into a discussion of Charlotte Mason's Original Homeschooling Series. (Don't forget your tea.)

We are beginning with Volume 1 Home Education. (If you don't have a copy of the series not to worry Ambleside Online has provided a copy for you to read and study for free.) During this week's periscope I discussed:

Who I am and why I'm doing this.
How Tuesday Tea with Charlotte will work.
A bit about my 13 years experience educating in this way.
Why I'm still reading and studying Charlotte Mason after 13 years!
This story of how Home Education came to be.
An overview of the entire book.
The big idea for this week's reading.

This week we are reading from Part I:
