The Power of Recitation: Words Before Understanding

"They don't even know what they're saying — so what's the point?" It's the objection heard in non-classical schools about recitation. In this episode, Katy McKinney, founder and Head of School at Lafayette Classical Academy, makes the case that this isn't a flaw in classical education — it's the process itself.
Katy explores what recitation actually trains beyond memory, the meaningful passages Lafayette students carry with them for life, and two stories — one from her own kitchen table, one from a middle school classroom — that reveal just how much is happening beneath the surface when a child memorizes words before fully grasping them.
Recorded as the country marked the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, it's a timely reminder of why some words are worth giving to children early — long before they understand them.
