Classical Education Question of the Week:

It seems like a lot of older books are used to teach reading. Aren't these out-dated?

ANSWER: Yes, we do use what we would call "classics." When our students read these novels, we are doing more than teaching "reading." We recognize and reinforce examples of virtue. We look for right and wrong. We see connections between our spelling words, our Latin studies, and insights from previousl novels. So much goes into our choice of novels for our students to read.
