My Philosophy & My Promises
What if we did actually have a sixth sense…?
I think we do…
…It’s our sense of WONDER.
Children have a very strong innate sense of wonder, and my hope is to offer more spaces where children are empowered to utilize that wonder.
I think the foundation of being a good learner is to be curious. Children need to know that their curiosity not only belongs in their classrooms/learning environments, but that it is extremely valuable in those spaces.
When you give children the time and space to wonder, you’ll be amazed at what happens. Our young learners begin to formulate their own original thoughts, begin to trust their own ideas and gain confidence, begin to solve their own problems and answer their own questions, begin to understand others’ thoughts and become a better teammate, and begin to take more risks in and out of their learning environments.
I know all of this because I have been lucky enough to see it, firsthand.
