The longer I teach, the less I do in my classroom--and the more my students learn and grow--and the more that learning is something they take with them outside of class. The longer my son is in school, the more I think that it has no relation whatsoever to learning. How do we so easily forget what we know about how people learn?

And the claps and cheers and simply watching while she learned. So glad you've savored every moment with your sweet granddaughter. I'm off to meet my grandson this week!

I'm leaving for CA in a few days to babysit my 18 month granddaughter for 12 days (some of those days will be only the two of us, Yikes!). I will be watching the joy of exploration and learning too.

Such a joy to watch the natural state of a learner. They just know how to do it don't they. I think so often we, as teachers just get in their way.

What a lovely week yo...Grandmother extraordinaire!<br /><br />What a lovely week you and Esveidy are sharing. I am a first time grandmother- my grandson is off to kindergarten at the end of August. I share your "insider's" view of the education system. My daughter has done a good job of finding a school where he can grow and be happy. I pray for a fun-loving experienced teacher with patience. <br /><br />Meanwhile Esveidy has had her successes and can enjoy the pleasure that brings. That feeling alone can give her drive and motivation as she grows older.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724394291330902141.post-46880562684726525192016-07-06T04:43:10.834-06:002016-07-06T04:43:10.834-06:00Yes, why?

Why not the cheering for the small steps toward success? <br />What a sweet time for grandmothering! Glad You can cherish all those little moments!Diane Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16902966404302255893noreply@blogger.com
