Kitchen Table Homeschool

Courtney talks about testing, AJ describes traditional, language-centered classical education, and Jenn, Courtney, and AJ talk about their experiences with MCT.

Jenn and Courtney go deep on Oak Meadow while AJ gives a history lesson from Oxford to the Moral Majority and beyond.

In this episode Courtney and Jen introduce our new co-host, AJ Campbell. Then we tackle joy in the homeschool, classical education, and The Well-Trained Mind.

How to create a book list, Dr. Kripa Sundar on curriculum design and "seductive details", and Build Your Library.

We tackle "What is classical education?" Plus, another problematic curricula list. In lieu of that list, we supply alternatives.  Finally, we cheerfully eviscerate Scientific Connections Through Inquiry.

Jen and Courtney discuss the best online curriculum, review different types of curricula, and then cheerfully eviscerate the Pandia Press's Ancients Level 2 curriculum with Wikipedia.

Jen and Courtney tackle the emotional toll of teaching your child something they don't want to learn, discuss another problematic curricula list, and then cheerfully eviscerate the Torchlight curriculum with cognitive science. 

Jenn and Courtney are two experienced homeschoolers who practice classical, secular homeschooling. Jenn's been doing this since 2001, and Courtney has been homeschooling since 2014. Using their experience and expertise, they cheerfully eviscerate popular recommendations and curricula. Join them to hear what they consider the good, the bad, and the ugly.
