How Much More Precious Is A Little

I Could Not Think Without Writing.

Are We Forming Children Who Are Only Capable Of Learning What Is Already Known? Or Should We Try To Develop Creative And Innovative Minds, Capable Of Discovery From The Preschool Age On, Throughout Life?

Children Have Real Understanding Only Of That Which They Invent Themselves, And Each Time That We Try To Teach Them Too Quickly, We Keep Them From Reinventing It Themselves.

What Is Desired Is That The Teacher Ceased Being A Lecturer, Satisfied With Transmitting Ready-made Solutions. His Role Should Rather Be That Of A Mentor Stimulating Initiative And Research.

Everytime We Teach A Child Something, We Prevent Him From Inventing It Himself.
