I keep seeing it referred to but I'm clueless.

Latin Centered Curriculum

Kind of a less is more philosophy...... do less, but do it best. It is more of a grammar driven method rather then a history driven method.

I'm sure others will come on later and give a more precise accounting of LCC..... at least you should hope so. :o:D:p

I hope more knowledgeable people will correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that sometimes posters use it in a general sense to mean a curriculum that is following a truly classical model of education, which places great emphasis on the importance of the study of Latin. And sometimes people are using the term to refer specifically to the book The Latin Centered Curriculum: Home Schooler's Guide to a Latin-Centered Classical Education by Andrew Campbell, who happens to be a regular poster (Plaid Dad). I hope that helps.

Thanks, I think the times I'd seen it referred to the posters were referring to the book. I was just curious.

I am glad that you asked since I had been wondering the same thing.
