Charlotte Mason Literature & Language Arts · Grades 6–12
Browse the coursesFind it. Follow it. Frame it. Keep it.
Every course runs on living books and narration — and underneath that gentle surface is real rigor. Students work in close literary and comparative analysis, read through historical and critical lenses, and learn to build an argument that holds. Wonder and analysis grow side by side — never one before the other.
What a week feels like
Six moves, in order. The same shape every week, whatever the book.
-
Read
Encounter a living work of literature.
-
Narrate
Tell what you encountered — before someone tells you what to think.
-
Notice
Find a word, image, pattern, question, or moment that lingers.
-
Follow
Trace it through the text.
-
Connect
Bring it into conversation with history, philosophy, art, nature, or another writer.
-
Write
Say something true — and support it.
Narration carries the early weeks; by the end of a unit the same student is arguing a thesis they arrived at themselves.
