Today we are digging into what history lessons look like in early elementary school.

We will cover the scope and sequence and show some helpful resources to make history come alive for our youngest students.

feast of the Charlotte Mason Method. I'm Emily Kaiser and I'm here with

Liz Kittrell and Nicole Williams. So last week we began our series on Charlotte Mason history

lessons and we learned why Charlotte Mason considered history such an important part of the curriculum.

So today we're going to be focusing on specifically form one.

So that's grades one through three in America.

Nicole, will you tell us more about the history that is covered at these ages?

Yeah.

So when it comes to history in form one, Miss Mason begins where every child should begin, and

that is with their own country. And she also begins

with something else, and that is story always. In the earliest year, what we would call, well,

it's form 1B, but we would call it first grade in America. Children are introduced to the heroic

age of their own nation. And these are the tales that form of people's early memories.

They're kind of half legend, half history, told in broad strokes.

In Charlotte Mason schools, that meant the earliest British history.

Tales like, let's see if I can do this, Boadysia.

I think they call her Boudicca.
