The Art of Recitation

Teaching children the beauty of speaking an author’s thoughts and ideas by way of recitation allows them to become the interpreter of the author’s words to the audience. Recitation is a skill that used to be taught in schools many years ago, but thankfully, through our homeschooling opportunities, we can bring it back into the lives of our children, and maybe even ourselves. We can learn to speak beautifully, clearly, and share great ideas of authors that inspire and kindle our hearts.

ABOUT ELLA:

Ella Savchuk is a follower of Christ, wife to her best friend, mother to 5 children, and a part-time Labor/Delivery RN of 12 years, who began her homeschooling journey 4 years ago when the Lord called her to stay home with her children and bring them home to educate. She tried different homeschooling methods in the beginning and met Miss Mason her 2nd year of homeschooling.

Pouring over Home Education and A Philosophy of Education by Charlotte Mason for almost a year before taking the leap, she began her CM journey 2 years ago. Last year she opened a Charlotte Mason Co-Op in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, which taught lessons such as brush-drawing, paper sloyd, swedish drill, Shakespeare, Plutarch, and more. The co-op just celebrated their first year together by holding an evening filled with hymns, recitations, and folk songs. Her mother culture moments are spent tending her flower gardens, reading living books, learning to watercolor, and nature journaling.
