Preplanned Curriculum... Your thoughts?
Although I'm only in town for a few hours - I wanted to briefly comment on the use of "pre-packaged curriculum" I'm seeing in various classrooms and programs around the country...
I am curious to know who out there uses this kind of curriculum packages? Not for reasons of judgement, but really because I am curious as to what determined your decision to use them?
Let's chat about this! Send me some feedback!

From "Teach Your Own - The John Holt Book of Homeschooling", on the topic of "Intelligence":
"Intelligence is not the measure of how much we know how to do - but of how we behave when we don't know what to do. It has to do with out ability to think up important questions and then to find ways to get useful answers."
The curriculum we plan and the environments we create must be working towards this end.
I'll be in touch...
all my love
