A Woman on a Mission

Reviewed by Parent/Teacher

I love that Robin Finley agrees with the Charlotte Mason philosophy of waiting until the children are older to teach them grammar. I also love that Robin describes herself as follows: "I am a woman on a mission to convince parents that they don't need to be doing a grammar worksheet every day, all year long, for years and years and years! If grammar is taught sequentially and logically, there is no need for so much repetition."
