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 deeply 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.
