I've heard that Bob Jones publishes plays. We'd really like to do a musical and put all our talents to work. Any leads would certainly be appreciated. Dear Harvey, Planning and publicizing your visit this April has led me to analyze this very topic of how to label and describe the trivium. It has been useful to me to have short labels for each stage, and then a brief description of each stage for those who ask.
Children learn to read and write.
Parents read aloud to their children each day, thereby exposing them to earth science, nature study, history, geography, art, and great literature. I am developing a greater appreciation for the wisdom of the ages, I wish I had been taught this before I was in my thirties, I can't begin to tell you of the frustration I have had at times trying to learn something quickly through intensive studying or cramming. It takes me three years to develop mature levels of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. There was a point back 5 years ago when our family went almost a month without all being home at the same time, due to schedules of soccer team and scouts and several other activities. I looked at my husband one night and said something had to give.
