A Simple Re-Telling

As this is our first year of schooling and using the Charlotte Mason method and Ambleside's AO1, we have gotten accustomed to the narration aspect of things we read and do. So far it has been fairly easy and without much complaint. We generally just to oral re-telling; however, my 6yo son sometimes fancies a dramatic rendition. I love that he takes to this of his own volition! Here he is re-telling Little Red Riding-Hood

Granted, this is not a reading that was scheduled for the week, save for the fact that it fit in well with our Spanish lesson. However, it is a good example of the spark that the Charlotte Mason approach ignites in the mind of a child.
