I found all of your quotes absolutely enlightening. I really liked the quote "Curriculum is not delivered. Milk is delivered." - Lilian Katz I thought it was so true. You have to present the curriculum and reach a child's understanding!
ReplyDeleteI liked the quote you posted from T. Berry Brazelton about resilience being the biggest thing parents can give their children. I think that parents sometimes get caught up just trying to get through the day that they lose the bigger picture.
ReplyDeleteI like the quote about learning more from mistakes than successes (T. Berry Brazelton). I have often thought this to be true because, as with most people, I remember my mistakes in much more detail than I remember my successes. It is always my goal to learn from my mistakes and move on with the hope that I will not repeat them.
ReplyDeleteIt's short and sweet but straight to the point. It's not easy writing curriculums that will relate to all children. That's why am a firm believer in fun activities while teaching a lesson. Curriculums show the teaching ability of the teacher and how the children learn. I learn it is what you put into it that will benefit the growth of the child.
