<p><strong>History of Christma&#8217;s Celebration</strong> (Texto en Español a Continuación)‎</p>
<p>During the Christma&#8217;s season, believers in Christ commemorate the coming of Immanuel, ‎which means “God with us”. This miraculous and holy event is illuminated in the ‎beautiful words of Scriptures, which detail the events surrounding Christ’s amazing birth. ‎</p>
<p>The Christmas season has long been a mixture of both the secular and sacred. During the ‎church’s first three centuries, Christmas wasn’t even on the calendar yet. Initially, the ‎celebration of Christ’s birth was lumped in with Epiphany on January 6, one of the ‎church’s earliest feasts. Some thought that it would be wrong to honor Christ’s birthday ‎since birthday celebrations were for pagan gods. The date December 25 places Christmas ‎in the middle of a significant pagan winter festival that celebrates the rebirth of the sun ‎using bonfires and evergreen trees. The mixture of traditions between the pagan holiday ‎and the Christian holiday is seen today in everything from snowy nativity scenes to stars ‎on decorated pine trees. ‎</p>
<p>For hundreds of years, Christmas has also been the flashpoint of bitter legal and social ‎battles. During the 1500s and 1600s, the celebration of Christmas was banned for a time ‎in Scotland, England, and Massachusetts. Many Puritans and Protestants believed that the ‎holiday was so secularized that it had become a blasphemy against God. The opposite is ‎the case today as Christian aspects of the holiday are brought under attack by liberal ‎government and special interest groups.‎</p>
<p>In modern times Christian’s families around the world preparing families dinners at Dec ‎‎24; Most decorate the houses with lights (electric and candles) and give gift to the ‎children in resemblance of the very first Christmas as related in the Bible. However in ‎many houses the gift tradition has being replace for the commercial Coca Cola image of ‎the mythical figure of Santa Claus bringing the gift to the children.‎</p>
<p>Some conservative Christians families prefers do not celebrate Christmas to avoid fall in ‎the worldly traditions. ‎</p>
<p>In our particular case, we celebrate Christmas in a very modest way, using the spirit of ‎the celebration to be in close contact with relatives and friends and to share with them ‎joy, peace and love. That is why in the next days we will announce contests with many ‎prizes that we hope you enjoy in your homeschooling journey. ‎</p>

<p><strong>Historia de la Celebración de Navidad</strong>:</p>
<p>Durante la época de Navidad, los creyentes en Cristo conmemoramos la venida de ‎Emanual, que significa “Dios con nosotros”. Este evento milagroso y santo esta ‎iluminado en las bellas palabras de las Escrituras, que detallan los hechos alrededor del ‎asombroso nacimiento de Jesucristo.‎</p>
<p>La época Navideña dese hace mucho ha sido una mezcla de lo secular y lo sagrado. ‎Durante los tres primeros siglos de la iglesia, la Navidad ni siquiera estaba en el ‎calendario. Inicialmente, la celebración del nacimiento de Cristo se realizaba en la ‎Epifania del 6 de Enero, una de las primeras celebraciones de la iglesia. Algunos ‎pensabas que era incorrecto celebrar el nacimiento de Cristo ya que las celebraciones de ‎cumpleaños eran para dioses paganos. La fecha del 25 de Diciembre coloca la Navidad ‎en medio de una celebración del festival pagano de invierno que celebraba el ‎renacimiento del sol usando fogatas y árboles siempre verdes. La mezcla de tradiciones ‎entre la celebración pagando y la celebración de Navidad se ve hoy en todo, desde ‎escenas nevadas de nacimientos a estrellas y pinos decorados.‎</p>
<p>Por varios cientos de años, la Navidad también ha sido el foco de batallas legales y ‎sociales. Durante los años 1500s a 1600s, la celebración de navidad estuvo prohibida en ‎Escocia, Inglaterra y Massachusetts. Muchos Puritanos y Protestantes creían que la ‎celebración estaba tan secularizada que se había convertido en una blasfemia contra Dios. ‎Lo opuesto sucede hoy, cuando algunos aspectos de la Navidad son atacados por ‎autoridades liberales y grupos de interés espacial.‎</p>
<p>En tiempos modernos, las familias Cristianas alrededor del mundo preparan cenas ‎familiares el 24 de Diciembre, decoran las casas con luces  y dan regalos a los niños en ‎recuerdo de la primera navidad como esta relatada en la Biblia. Sin embargo, en muchos ‎hogares la tradición de los regalos ha sido reemplazada por la imagen comercial de Coca ‎Cola de la mítica figura de Santa Claus trayendo regalos a los niños.‎</p>
<p>Algunas familias conservadoras Cristianas prefieren no celebrar la Navidad evitando caer ‎así en tradiciones mundanas.‎</p>
<p>En nuestro caso en particular, celebramos la Navidad de una forma muy modesta, usando ‎en espíritu de la celebración para estar cerca de familiares y amigos  y compartir con ellos ‎alegría, paz y amor. Por esta razón en los próximos días anunciaremos concursos con ‎muchos regalos que esperamos los disfrutes en tu ambiente de Educación en Casa.‎</p>

Aquí hay dos razones básicas: la filosofía egocéntrica del ‎humanismo, y las ideas humanistas psicológicas, que nos han enseñado a educar a los ‎niños con permisividad. Los niños que crecen sin una corrección paterna amorosa ‎resultan ser personas egocéntricas y egoístas, y su intento de ser independientes o ‎autónomos siempre  les lleva a la futilidad o al caos.‎&#8221;</p>

<p>Here a couple of pictures of Octavio working in cursive. ‎</p>

<p><center><img alt="Octavio Cursive Bangkok 2" src="http://theclassicalmommy.com/blog//../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../tmp/cursive 2.bmp" /></center></p>
<p>He is using <a href="http://www.zaner-bloser.com/educator/products/handwriting/index.aspx?id=6202">Zaner-Bloser 2C Workbook</a>. He started making half page per day, now he is ‎doing two pages per day. He likes cursive very much and just to invented the letters that still he ‎didn’t know, but this week he will finish the lowercases, so no more invented letters!</p>
<p><center><img alt="Octavio cursive 4" src="http://theclassicalmommy.com/blog//../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../tmp/cursive 4.bmp" /></center></p>
<p>We took the workbook and his mini white board (his favorite toy) in the last travel to ‎Bangkok, yes, homeschooling do not stop during travel time, it change from the regular ‎schedule, but there is always something to learn.‎</p>
<p><center><img alt="Octavio Cursive Bangkok 3" src="http://theclassicalmommy.com/blog//../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../tmp/cursive 3.bmp" /></center></p>
<p><strong>Español:‎</strong></p>
<p>Previo un par de fotos de Octavio trabajando en letra de carta ( así le decimos n ‎Honduras), también llamada letra ligada.‎</p>
<p>El esta usando el Cuaderno de Trabajo <a href="http://www.zaner-bloser.com/educator/products/handwriting/index.aspx?id=6202">Zaner Bloser 2C</a>. Empezó haciendo media página ‎al día, y ahora hace dos páginas diarias. A el le gusta mucho la letra de carta y ‎acostumbraba inventar letras que aun no había aprendido, pero esta semana terminamos ‎las letras minúsculas, así que ya no mas letras inventadas!‎</p>
<p>Noe llevamos el cuaderno de trabajo y la pizarrita blanca ( su juguete favorito) en el ‎pasado viaje a Bangkok. Si, la educación en casa no para durante los viajes, cambia de su ‎horario regular, pero siempre hay algo que aprender.</p>

En las palabras de Dorothy Sayers, <strong>“La ‎única verdad de la educación es simplemente esta: “Enseñar al hombre a aprender por sí ‎mismo; y toda instrucción que falla en hacerlo es esfuerzo gastado en vano.”</strong> ‎</p>
<p>El síndrome del estudiante perpetuo es el opuesto exacto al ideal clásico. Dependencia ‎continua en instituciones educativas no muestra una dedicación a aprender, si no que ‎muestra el hecho de que uno nunca ha realmente adquirido las habilidades del ‎aprendizaje, sino, una amalgama de asignaturas. Es chocante que tan frecuente usted ve ‎personas vagando en la universidad local para aprender algunas asignaturas que ellos podrían ‎muy fácilmente adquirir invirtiendo un par de tardes con los libros correctos. ‎</p>
<p>Si un profesor no le ha enseñado a sus alumnos a aprender por sí mismo, él sólo puedo ‎ser visto como una fracaso.  Tristemente, tendemos a equiparar el nivel de la educación ‎de alguien con la cantidad de tiempo que el ha gastado en instituciones académicas, ‎en vez de cuan rápido llega a ser libre de la necesidad de esas instituciones.‎</p>
