Description

What is narration in homeschooling, and why does it matter so much in a Charlotte Mason or classical education? In this episode of Homeschool Conversations with Humility and Doxology, I talk with Adrienne Freas (homeschool veteran, grandmother, author, and classical education consultant) about the art of narration. Adrienne shares how narration goes beyond simple retelling to become a joyful, life-giving practice that builds memory, strengthens reasoning, and develops eloquent expression. Together we explore the roots of narration in the classical tradition, why it uniquely activates all three arts of the trivium, and how homeschool families can begin narration in simple, practical, and creative ways.
