Do Comprehension Questions Kill the Joy of Reading? | Classical Et Cetera Mailbag

from Classical Et Cetera · host The Memoria Press Podcast Network

It's another Mailbag episode of Classical Et Cetera! This week the Core Four tackles your questions on several topics, including whether comprehension questions steal the joy of reading, how to school multiple children together as a family, and whether your kids even need to know why they're learning Latin. We also dig into the difference between the classical virtues and the fruits of the Spirit, and what to do with the Lord's name in vain when it shows up in literature. Send us your questions at [email protected].   *What We're Reading* from This Episode:  "After Midnight" Daphne Du Maurier (Paul) "Brideshead Revisited" Evelyn Waugh (Tanya) "Ironwood" Michael Connelly (Martin) "The Marriage Portrait" Maggie O'Farrell (Jessica) "Cloud Cuckoo Land" Anthony Doerr (Jessica)
