Towards a Philosophy of Education is the sixth volume of Charlotte Masons six part homeschooling series, a series that is considered one of the finest ever written on education. Towards a Philosophy of Education gives the best overview of Masons teaching philosophy. Written years after she was able to see her teaching methods in action she is able to give further examples and directions.Masons method of education shows its strength through its widespread use today by private schools and homeschooling families. It is flexible and includes first-hand exposure to ideas through books in art, music, and poetry, nature observation as the primary means of early science teaching, use of manipulatives and real-life application to understand mathematical concepts and learning to reason, rather than rote memorization, and an emphasis on character and on cultivating and maintaining good personal habits.The complete collection of Charlotte Masons Original Homeschooling Series includes:Volume 1 - Home Education Volume 2 - Parents and ChildrenVolume 3 - School EducationVolume 4 - OurselvesVolume 5 - Formation Of CharacterVolume 6 - Towards A Philosophy of Education
