This is one place in our home where our emphasis is on learning. However,
most learning doesn't necessarily even occur here. You learn wherever you are
and whatever you are doing! Learning is not something we can box up and give
out. Education is not a commodity--it is an attitude. Education is
not what you learn just in a classroom...it is what you learn in all of everyday
life. Life is the classroom.
So, in this room we would like to share some of the things that we have
learned as educators in order to link resources to those who can most benefit
from them. We would also enjoy sharing some of the things from our students.
Ultimately, our goal is to be life-long learners where life itself is our
school.
As mother and co-educator, I am rewarded and challenged daily. We feel that
academic excellence and standards are necessary and good. They provide a feeling
of achievement and personal self-worth for each child. However, we try to use
many creative, innovative, and unusual ways to facilitate learning, so that the
focus is not merely rote and memorization alone. To enter our school room just
click on the word LEARNER.
