Learning and teaching should not stand on opposite banks and just watch the river flow by; instead, they should embark together on a journey down the water. Through an active, reciprocal exchange, teaching can strengthen learning how to learn.

Happy Mother’s Day to our amazing mamas!
Each kiddo worked so hard to create a sweet little zipper pouch covered in hearts with their moms in mind. We talked about all of the things we love about mom, where we like to go with her, what we like to do together and more! That info was typed on the back of a post card, & the kids made a picture of themselves with mom on the front. Painting the gift bag the whole present went in was the finishing touch!
