Hey y'all

I just finished reading "Natural Structure" from CHC -- a great book and lots of cross-over between Montessori and CM type learning!

I have a question: the authors mention a music game called "Music Maestro" -- does anyone know where I can find out more about this?

THANKS!

I believe "Music Maestro" was a game made by Aristoplay, but I don't know if they still sell it. I didn't see it at their web site. You might trying asking at the Cathswap yahoo group or at vegsource on the want to buy boards.

God bless,

I was thinking it was some software we are using, but in checking, we actually have Music Ace. I googled Music Maestro and got lots of hits, but they vary widely. Since I haven't read the book I'm not sure what you're looking for.
I have been wanting to read that book but have been delaying b/c of the price. our library doesn't have it; I guess I should see if ILL can get it.

Karen:

You'll probably have a hard time finding it as it is published by CHC and I'm not sure any public libraries would carry it. It's well-worth the cost (aside from supporting a Catholic homeschooling family who runs CHC) as it is a great overview of how one family "does" Montessori and classical ed in a Catholic homeschool setting. The authors give tips on how to implement from preschool thru high school.....

Oh, I knew CHC carried it but didn't realize they actually published it. Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like the price wasn't worth it, and I do like supporting Catholic businesses (I actually just placed 4 book orders the other night - one from Emmanuel, one from CHC, one from Ignatius and one from allcatholicbooks!). I have read several Montessori books from the library so was hesitant to get another but it sounds really good. Thanks for posting.
