JUST BRILLIANT!! A superb read a nd validation of the  Montessori method.

I’m so happy that so many people think about our planet and act.  Could You imagine how and what can we teach children during cleaning this part of the land?

Every year 8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans. It’s time to make a change! Start cleaning up around you. Every bit counts.

Sharing powerful stories from his anti-obesity project in Huntington, W. Va., TED Prize winner Jamie Oliver makes the case for an all-out assault on our ignorance of food.

Jamie Oliver communicating to others about the importance of food awareness in young children.

The article posted below explains how there needs to be three kinds of studios within children’s environment.

http://www.edutopia.org/master-classroom

1. Leonardo da Vinci Studio: Encourages cross-disciplinary thinking, and transparency to the inside to the outside

2. The Einstein Studio: Quiet places that encourages critical thinking

3. Jamie Oliver: Eat well, be healthy, and knowing where food comes from.

Children playing outdoors, outdoors environmental designs, and more.

Here is my other Pinterest Board on bringing children outdoors.

According to Howard Gardner, human beings have nine different kinds of intelligence that reflect different ways of interacting with the world. For Gardner, intelligence is:

the ability to create an effective product or offer a service that is valued in a culture;

a set of skills that make it possible for a person to solve problems in life;

the potential for finding or creating solutions for problems, which involves gathering new knowledge.

HOWARD GARDNER’S NINE MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES:

1. Linguistic Intelligence: the capacity to use language to express what’s on your mind and to understand other people. Any kind of writer, orator, speaker, lawyer, or other person for whom language is an important stock in trade has great linguistic intelligence. 2. Logical/Mathematical Intelligence: the capacity to understand the underlying principles of some kind of causal system, the way a scientist or a logician does; or to manipulate numbers, quantities, and operations, the way a mathematician does. 3. Musical Rhythmic Intelligence: the capacity to think in music; to be able to hear patterns, recognize them, and perhaps manipulate them. People who have strong musical intelligence don’t just remember music easily, they can’t get it out of their minds, it’s so omnipresent. 4. Bodily/Kinesthetic Intelligence: the capacity to use your whole body or parts of your body (your hands, your fingers, your arms) to solve a problem, make something, or put on some kind of production. The most evident examples are people in athletics or the performing arts, particularly dancing or acting. 5. Spatial Intelligence: the ability to represent the spatial world internally in your mind – the way a sailor or airplane pilot navigates the large spatial world, or the way a chess player or sculptor represents in a circumscribed spatial world. Spatial intelligence can be used in the arts or in the sciences. 6. Naturalist Intelligence: the ability to discriminate among living things (plants, animals) and sensitivity to other features of the natural world (clouds, rock configurations). This ability was clearly of value in our evolutionary past as hunters, gatherers, and farmers; it continues to be central in such roles as botanist or chef. 7. Intrapersonal Intelligence: having an understanding of yourself; knowing who you are, what you can do, what you want to do, how you react to things, which things to avoid, and which things to gravitate toward. We are drawn to people who have a good understanding of themselves. They tend to know what they can and can’t do, and to know where to go if they need help. 8. Interpersonal Intelligence: the ability to understand other people. It’s an ability we all need, but is especially important for teachers, clinicians, salespersons, or politicians – anybody who deals with other people. 9. Existential Intelligence: the ability and proclivity to pose (and ponder) questions about life, death, and ultimate realities.

What are dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia and dysgraphia?

These excellent visuals come from aboutdyspraxia.com (website seems to be down at time of writing) and offer a quick reference for teachers and others to identify signs of the above conditions.

Who doesn't like dinosaurs ? :D

A very successful work cycle with lots or friends, laughter, and works completed.

For example, a child might draw a truck by making a line fast across the page and going ‘zoom, zoom,’ and so it doesn’t look like a truck when the child is done, but if you watch the process, what the child says and the noises and motion he makes when he’s drawing, you can see that he is trying to represent a truck through action,” she said. “And in a way you have drawing fused with symbolic play.

All we have to do is to create appropriate environment and let the children grow naturally.

Absolutely truth :)

I know the children who do not eat the fruits and veggies. I wonder what would happen if prepare food with children in this way :)

Just my usual chocolate smoothie bowl to keep me cool this morning after my run. I have work soon but I will spend my free time this morning enjoying a little sunshine and maybe a quick dip in the pool before my walk to work. I always get so anxious before work after a few days off. Every week it’s the same, and my anxiety is always heightened no matter how hard I try to calm it. Maybe it’s because I still don’t feel like I fit in and I am a super pro at making myself look like an idiot. I honestly struggle to do anything right 🤣 Usually I have nothing to worry about, but convincing myself that isn’t so easy.

For children all world can be a playground :)
