For many families, Advent is full of traditions and memory-making opportunities; some of my favorite Christmas times involve reading aloud as a family.  Reading aloud allows us to build family culture, to get to know the same characters, and to develop “inside jokes” and literary references that draw us together.  Reading aloud is also just plain fun!  This year’s Everyday Educator Advent series introduces listeners to some new friends from all across the country; listen this week as the Knotts from Connecticut share what they love to read together, and why reading as a family is so powerful.  Your family may find a new read aloud to share tonight!

Have you ever bought into a myth because “everybody says so”?  Lots of misguided folks believe that classical education is just for smart kids; or even that classical education makes kids smart.  Join Lisa and her guest Chelly Barnard as they bust that myth wide open!  Chelly will help you remember to consider both the purpose of education and the mission of CC; and you’ll discover the tools that might make you “smart” but will lead you and yours to realize the potential the Lord intended you to fulfill all along.
