2025 Workshop Talk | | Science

Summary


Legacy Classical Christian Academy (est. 2010) recently added the Charlotte Mason Model to their 2024-2025 curriculum. As a result, nature studies were added for PK-6th-grade students. Our new program has been wildly successful due to our students’ passion and enthusiasm for exploring God’s amazing creation. Incorporating nature studies into your school curriculum can greatly increase your student’s curiosity and observational skills for all ages and doesn’t have to be complicated or overwhelming.

Speaker


Elizabeth Carlson graduated Summa Cum Laude from Oklahoma State University with her BS in entomology and double minors in Latin and classical studies. Currently, she is teaching nature studies and Latin at Legacy Classical Christian Academy in Haslet, Texas. She has five years of teaching and educational experience as a TA of the largest entomology class at OSU, a tutor of 11 college-level courses, a teaching and outreach intern, and a teacher at LCCA. Before her bachelor’s degree, Elizabeth attended a classical Christian University Model school learning how important that form of education is for preparing students for college and life in the broader culture. She loves to travel, sew, and enjoy God’s creation (especially moths!).
