Our aim here at A Delectable Education is to encourage and equip families to implement an authentic interpretation of Charlotte Mason’s life-giving method. We hope that our new tool, Curriculum Templates, will enable individual families to build their own Charlotte Mason curriculum.
A Delectable Education has spent hundreds of hours researching and acquiring the specific knowledge teachers need regarding the content of each subject, which subjects are offered at each age level, how each subject is presented, and the quantity and frequency of specific lessons in Miss Mason’s balanced curriculum. They have taken the guesswork out of this massive gathering of information and have now distilled the basics for teachers. The ADE Curriculum Templates help teachers build their individual curriculum with confidence that no part of the feast is neglected nor are they over-scheduled or under-achieved. Form by form, each subject is presented with the relevant details necessary to plan a cohesive and comprehensive school year.
Each Curriculum Template:
- Outlines the scope for that Form (or Forms)
- Goes subject by subject
- Includes links to resources for training as well as content
- Shows ideal lesson lengths and frequency
- Provides detailed explanations of what content should be covered in each subject area
- Please note, the only specific book recommendations included in the template are those that Miss Mason consistently assigned year after year for that particular subject
No family must feel bound to a box curriculum, or one-size-fits-all programs anymore as long as the teacher is willing to put a personal plan together with the guidance that this curriculum builder provides. All essential background information for making the wisest selection for living books is included. With the download, you will be able to use these templates year after year for children in all forms. As you grow in your experience and knowledge and your children grow and develop, these templates give an ongoing baseline from which to organize your ever-changing school needs.
It is possible to gather and organize your school lessons on your own, though full consultation appointments are still available from ADE when you need individual guidance for specific book choices in combining multiple ages, accommodating special learning challenges, and where other unique circumstances requiring assistance is helpful. Additionally, “Curriculum Reviews” are available after you’ve worked through the template and chosen books if you’d like feedback on the choices you’ve made. Please note that the Curriculum Review Consultation is a one-time service and does not include the year-long email support and follow up help as the full consultation service provides.
