Summary

Today's episode is our attempt to answer the question of what is scholé? And how do I know if I'm doing it right? Is scholé just restful learning? Or is there more to it than that? These are interesting questions to tackle!

***

So what is scholé anyway? What gives with using such a weird Greek word? Scholé Sisters has a short, free guide to understanding what scholé is and how to get some in your life and homeschool. We want to make scholé approachable and practical. Scholé is more than reading and more than restful learning. It's an approach and an attitude. Our Beginner's Guide to Scholé will help you jumpstart your own schole practices. Click here to find it right on the front page of our website - for free.
