    This is an EXCELLENT introduction to CC – as we affectionately refer to Classical Conversations. It is true, that it is not CC but the Classical Method that makes it work so well. However, the founder, Leigh Bortins and her staff, have made the Classical Method available to every parent by giving us a foundational body to work with. A place to commune and create fellowship – including for our children. That is my favorite aspect of the Challenge levels: just about the time children become more desrious of their peer’s company and to discuss idea and wrestle with thoughts with someone other than a parent, they enter the Challenge program. The begin to work on their own and learn self-discipline, self-government, and self-motivation. This is the best invironment for positive “socialization”. 🙂
