Mozart and Monet



It's Mozart and Monet at Living Waters this summer. We'll be using Mozart: The Wonder Boy as a read aloud, listening to the Story of Mozart in Words and Music, and coloring a few pictures of Mr. Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart from the Bellerophoron coloring book of great composers.


As for Monet, we'll do a picture study, rotating prints each month. I can't wait to decorate our learning room wall with these! I've ordered a Monet calendar and plan on cutting the paintings out for display and study. On the advice of Susan Andreason in A Charlotte Mason Companion, I will not offer much information about the man behind the paintings until the children have had a chance to really live with them for awhile and come to their own conclusions.
