FablesAndTales1

Parent/Child Tutorial (8-10 yrs), $175 - No Prerequisite

Come ready to read and discuss! This is a parent/child course. Experience using the Socratic method in this introductory level course while reading and studying a weekly fable or tale. The entire family is encouraged to participate in reading and asking questions about these classic short stories prior to class, so that once in class, the experience is rich. Students and parents alike will enjoy this exploration into the deep lessons and ideas in these seemingly simple readings.

We recommend that parents review these works ahead of time to ensure they are a good fit for their children. Not all courses may be well-suited for each family, particularly when children are in a younger age range. We rely on parent discretion to determine whether or not a course will serve their child well. To request an in-depth view of the readings, please email the Program Manager, Nicole, at nicole@wisdomhomeschooling.com.
