Welcome to another week of Trivium Tuesdays! For those of you who are new here today, this is a link-up aimed at encouraging and informing other homeschoolers who use the Classical model of teaching. Here we can share with each other and learn from one another.
Don't forget to follow all my Pinterest boards that are a part of the All Things Classical List!
Also, please remember to only link up posts that have to do with homeschooling using the classical model of education. Thank you for understanding this link-up's theme.
Feature
This week is a little different in that I want to feature a giveaway I have going on here at Living and Learning at Home! I have partnered with The Great Homeschool Conventions to give away a Family Pass (and more!) to one of my readers.
As I looked through the list of speakers, I noticed that there are a good number who are associated with classical education. This would be an amazing convention for all of you to go to! A huge bonus is that there are three locations to choose from. I'll be at the Cincinnati convention!
Great Homeschool Convention Speakers - Classical Education
- Christopher Perrin, from Classical Academic Press
- Cheryl Swope, author of Simply Classical: A Beautiful Education for Any Child
- Adam Andrews, on the founding board of Westover Academy (a Classical Christian school in Colville, Washington)
- Janice Campbell, author of Excellence in Literature (among others)
- Martin Cothran, author of some of Memoria Press' programs and is the managing editor of "The Classical Teacher" magazine
- Duke Pesta, academic director of FreedomProject Education (an online school for providing a classical education)
- Linda Lacour Hobar, author of The Mystery of History
- Andrew Kern, co-author of Classical Education: The Movement Sweeping America, and The Lost Tools of Writing
So please take a minute and enter the giveaway and then come back, link up your posts, and read what others have shared!
This Week's Link-Up
Here are the rules:
- Your post must have to do (in some way) with classical homeschooling (any age children).
- Your post may be from your archives as long as you only post it one time on this link-up.
- Please link to your direct post, not your blog in general.
- Please place my Trivium Tuesdays button (found on my right sidebar) on your blog post so others can learn about this link-up!
- It may be helpful to state in your link description what stage of the trivium or what subject your post is about, if applicable, so others can easily find posts they are interested in looking at.
- Remember, everyone loves comments =) So don't be shy, and tell someone if you liked their post!
I reserve the right to remove any link-up that does not have to do with classical homeschooling.
If you are a regular here at Trivium Tuesdays and have something
to share that is a little off topic, but still would be an encouragement
to the readers here, please still share it =) I'm referring to people
who are just trying to get their blog more exposure without following
the rules above.
Yay! Excited about the GHC this year. Thanks for doing the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I am happy to be able to =) Are you planning on going? If so, which one?
DeleteAmy, I don't have any free printables this week, but Melissa and Doug is having a two day 25% off sale. Is it ok to link that?
ReplyDeleteThanks,

Sure =) Melissa and Doug has lots of awesome products for the younger set!
DeleteThe conference looks exciting. I've heard Christopher Perrin before (he was a consultant at a school where I taught), but none of the other speakers.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of Classical Academic Press, so I would love to hear Christopher Perrin! I haven't heard any of the ones I listed, thought if you look at the full list on the GHC website, I've seen a few of those.
DeleteThanks for hosting Trivium Tuesday. We are back into our school routine and so I am back to blogging about school.
ReplyDeleteGreat! I look forward to reading more from you!
DeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteI'm too far away to go to any of these conferences, but this morning I was stunned to be asked to speak at a conference!!! I linked up a very important booklet about teaching literature today (#20), and I'll probably mention it in my talk next spring as well.
That is awesome! What an honor. I'm off to read your post now!
