Myth-taken impressions
Happy Friday the 13th! Since I am on the road once again, I thought I would simply point you all to an excellent post on The 8 Myths that Undermine Educational Effectiveness: http://www.edutopia.org/blog/myths-that-undermine-educational-effectiveness-mark-phillips.
How many times have we all heard these myths? I suspect I am not alone in feeling irritated when the same arguments with the same mistaken impressions are made over and over again, particularly by the deformers, I mean the reformers.
Enjoy the piece. I will be back home tomorrow and hope to post once I have had a night in my own bed.
Here is some fun while you are waiting. Which famous children's book illustrator slips a drawing into his daughter's lunch box daily? You can see them here: http://drawingsformydaughters.tumblr.com.
