A Book Meme


I have been tagged by Mother Hen to participate in a Meme. I have to admit that this will be my very first one to be involved in  , so I hope that I do this properly. 


The rules of this meme are as follows:

Grab the nearest book.

Open the book to page 56.

Find the fifth sentence.

Post the text of the next two to five sentences in your journal/blog along with these instructions.

Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Tag five other people to do the same.


All right, ( I am not sure why the font changed ...sorry) here I go . To the right of me is a book that I always refure to it is called More Charlotte Mason. 

Page 56, 5th sentence reads : Second, the more first hand accounts you can find the more accurate your study will be. Third, do not be afraidto challange your children's mind by selecting above -grade -level books. Charlotte wrote that " Education implies a continuous going forth of the mind." ( Vol. 6, p.66)

I now tag: 

Maureen

Dee

Wendy

Rebekah( who is in 5th grade) just read her first chapter  in this book all by her self...... How awsome is that !!!!!

It has been a long journey for her and reading, but every minute of working and tears on reading has finally paid off.

 Bekah  really likes this book, and even asked if there were more books after this one.....and I of course gave her a whole hardy Yes !!!!!!! Yipeeeeee!!!!!! I am so proud of her.
