Episode RAR #192: Help! My Kids Hate Narration
When my kids were young, I tried narration in my homeschool.
But instead of working how it was supposed to, it made my oldest daughter freeze with panic. She actually started hating books she had previously loved. Read-aloud time became fraught. And the quality of her education suffered for it.
In today’s episode, I’m diving deep into the Charlotte Mason (CM) idea of narration, and offering an idea for what to do if narration simply isn’t a good fit for your family.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• What’s the goal of narration anyway? • What my family does instead of narration (and we like it so! much! better!) • A reminder of what we’re going for (spoiler alert: narration isn’t the only way to get it)
