Feast Charlotte Mason Community
"Spreading the feast of living ideas together”
FCMC meets around the Montgomery County area and includes the following offerings:
Nature Explorers: Fridays at 11am at various parks around MOCO. We learn about God’s world together through nature journaling, object lessons, and exploration.
Mother’s Book Discussion: Second Fridays each month. Held at a group member’s home, we discuss Charlotte Mason’s works, currently working through Volume 2, Parents and Children.
Seasonal Celebrations: Held in Fall and Spring, we gather at a local church to recite, do a handicraft, play group games, display the children’s favorite creations, and enjoy a meal together.
Field Trips: Taking advantage of the many opportunities nearby, we are planning at least one field trip per term to be held on a separate day from our regular Friday meeting.
Child-Made Museum Event: Held during a regular Friday meeting time in the winter, the children can sign up to create a display and present on their chosen topic. This years theme is “Living History.”
Holiday Handicraft Fair: We will be holding our first ever handicraft fair the beginning of December! More information coming soon.
Paideia: Once a month group for students in 4th grade and above. We will be studying Shakespeare, Geography, and life skills together.
