3. We know that deep, lasting learning requires conditions that schools and classrooms simply were not built for. Yup! That is why I love experiential learning in addition to traditional academics.

7. We know that separating learning into discrete subjects and time blocks is not the best way to prepare kids for the real world. Yup! I love how we can make connections in our children’s’ daily lives because we are deeply involved with what they are learning.
