Homeschooling high school and the rhetoric stage hasn’t been nearly as bad as I feared. There was a big adjustment fall of freshman year, but things improved dramatically once we adjusted expectations. 🙂

My parents and I also had many wonderful discussions during the high school years. As the children have grown, I’ve been amazed at how well classical education corresponds to the mental development of the children. Thank you for stopping by! 🙂

Sometimes our Socratic discussions are simply my asking leading or thoughtful questions about the teens’ passions. “Really, was that appropriate? Why?” or “Wow, what happens next? Why did it work?” And to be honest, we use Tapestry of Grace for similar reasons you use Omnibus. An excellent teacher’s guide and a guide to Socratic discussions. Thanks for dropping by.:-)
