Turning
children into lifelong learners can be the ultimate joy for teachers and
parents alike.
The
benefits of this effort will continue to emerge throughout an entire lifetime.
Getting A’s is a
great feeling for a student. But in the long run, generating a genuine
curiosity and desire to learn can make a bigger difference than any grade on a
test.
Imagine
the potential of children who are curious about the world around them and who
are happy with themselves.
That
combination can lead to success in almost any arena.
Parents and teachers have the power to set the tone for a
child’s academic accomplishments.
Praise
children for their effort, for working independently, and for the energy they’ve
spent in achieving a goal.
The
process of studying well and learning completely should be the highest
priority.
If
you look behind good grades you will often find a great deal of love and
support.
Your
children deserve the best chance to become true, lifelong learners.
Help
maintain their enthusiasm for gaining knowledge,
not just good grades.
