Welcome all Classical Conversation families! Additionally, welcome to homeschooling families that use this list to supplement their study of American history!
A few notes about the arrangement of books in this post:
- This book list is a tool and not a checklist! Please use it to supplement your morning time routines or studies of CC memory work.
- My family will not read all these books listed each week (there are so many more I could list!). Instead, this will be a reference list for us to utilize in weekly book selections and in chapter book read alouds or read alones. (Note: We ceased using Classical Conversations two years ago and have transitioned to a more Charlotte Mason approach; however, I know what a valuable tool book lists are for our family so I have continued to complete the 3 cycle book lists for families like yours! )
- Additional books are listed after the twelve week suggestions which can be used throughout the cycle.
- I will not provide a download of this list, but encourage you to write these suggestions in the Memoria section of your Foundations Guides.
- This list is primarily a history based reading list in addition to books relating to fine arts and geography. I am not as familiar with science read alouds.
It is my hope that this list proves to be a wonderful resource for your family enabling you to make memories around the shared experience of reading great books. You can find weeks 1-12 here. Enjoy!
