Classically Catholic Memory<br />
Classically Catholic Memory<br />
Classically Catholic Memory is a Catholic homeschool<br />
memory work program, that is both Catholic and<br />
classical in nature, that guides parents and children in<br />
mastering challenging and inspiring material in eight<br />
subjects: Religion, Latin, History, Science, Math, Timeline,<br />
Geography, and Great Words. Memory work is<br />
simply the mastery of core facts in a given subject, or the<br />
mastery of a certain body of work (poetry or Scripture,<br />
for example) using the tool of one’s memory.<br />

each subject, broken down by week, and includes a weekly<br />

continent.<br />

Testimonials from<br />
Homeschoolers<br />
“We love Classically Catholic Memory,<br />
and we recommend it to anyone that<br />
we can. The program has given our<br />
home education a focus to uniting<br />
the multiple learning levels in one<br />
direction—instead of six separate<br />
students. Even if I get nothing else<br />
done in a week, we can do our memory<br />
work; even our three-year-old can sing<br />
along with the memory songs and recite<br />
some of the memory work. This was<br />
lacking until we started with Classically<br />
Catholic Memory.”<br />
— Lucas (homeschooling husband and<br />
father of six) in New Jersey<br />
“I love, love, love your program! Our<br />
co-op is awesome, and my kids are<br />
learning so much ... thank you for your<br />
great program.”<br />
— Katie in Georgia<br />
