Classical Learning

The kids are having a great time this week learning thier Classical conversations material.  Classical learning teaches facts at the younger ages - the kids memorize the core of info, not neccessarily their connections.  A lot of the information is set to a tune or a dance.  We also had fun making up our own.  In the first video below, the kids are all joining in - I love how Ryan is having fun too (and the room he destroyed in 10 seconds flat while working on writing with Becca and Robby is in the background)  In the second one, Robby is reciting what an "infinitive" is, and saying it like he is a king!

"An infinitive is "to" plus a verb, used as a noun, adjective or adverb."
