Top 4 Classical Education Blogs

Top 4 Classical Education Blogs | Elemental BloggingI am a big fan of classical education, after all it is the method we use in our own homeschool.

I also enjoy reading homeschool blogs because like you, I am inspired by what others are doing in the homeschooling world.

So today, I wanted to share with you all four of the blogs I head to for classical education inspiration!

My Top 4 Classical Education Blogs

I have been reading the following blogs for a year or more.

These ladies post about more than classical education, but they all use this method in their homeschool. I frequently pin little classical education nuggets from each of them.

I have also gleaned quite a bit of encouragement and inspiration for my homeschool journey from them. So, thank you ladies!

1. Amy at Living and Learning at Home

  • Don’t Miss – Oral Narration
  • Classical Focus – You will really appreciate this blog if you have a preschooler or grammar stage student.

This post is part of Amy’s 10 Things to do before the age of 10 series. I really enjoyed her explanation of oral narration and the goals she shared at the end of the post.

Amy shares tons of encouragement, inspiration, and resources for classical education. She also hosts the Trivium Tuesday and the Classical Mamas Read link-ups, both of which you simply must check out as a classical educator.

On top of that, she also offers classical copywork on a variety of topics.

2. Mary at Homegrown Learners

  • Don’t Miss – When your homeschool must change
  • Classical Focus – You will really appreciate this blog if you are interested in or participating in Classical Conversations.

I have been following Mary for years now and have watched her grow comfortable in her role as classical educator. I love the vulnerability with which she shares about her homeschool journey, like in the post above.

She shares some on the day-to-day experiences of a classical education and quite a bit about their experience with Classical Conversations.

Do not miss her music curriculum SQUILT, which is a favorite in our house!

3. Tonia at The Sunny Patch

I love how Tonia brings the loftier ideals of classical education into the reality of the normal homeschooling family, like she did in the post above.

She regularly shares practical how-to posts and easily explains the concepts of classical education, including self-education. One trip to her blog and you’ll walk away with plenty of classical food for thought.

4. Sara Dennis at Classically Homeschooling

When I first read the above post, my daughter was just finishing 6th grade and I nodded all the way through it! I love how Sara shares about the concepts of classical education in a practical, yet entertaining way.

Her blog is a pleasure to read and I’ve gleaned more than one classical education nugget from her.
