I. THE WAY OF THE TEACHER HUMILITY
Plenary Presented by Nancy Kelly
What postures do we take in our homes, schools, and communities? There are many lessons to be learned from L'Umile Pianta (The Humble Plant), the publication by the alumni from Charlotte Mason's House of Education and the badge chosen by the Old Students' Association. In this session, Nancy will explore how the lessons shared back then can help us today as we examine Mason's thoughts on humility. This session will make you stop and think about how you approach education in any venue.

Nancy will share how you can make your homeschool an enriching place with any size family by describing her tried and true schedule from her own homeschool, Sage Parnassus.
