Schools are places where children stop thinking gradually. The mind that has so many questions slowly loses its brilliance. The hands are engaged in a mindless activity called writing, sorry, copying off the board. Let us keep our children's mind alive. Let them be the way they came into this world- curious...
Can you learn science?
Exploring Science is an attempt to help children develop the love for science by active involvement in activities. Activities that help them think scientifically and not learn 'science'.
I may not be highly educated (thankfully) but I understand children and I love Science. I have taken help to make this blog and not made it myself. I am comfortable speaking in Hindi and have faced no hudles in communication with children so far and have realised in the process that it is the inquiry and the way it is led that matters and not the language.
I have learnt from life, not from text books. I would love to meet you and look at how we can make children's minds more alive and connected with the world around them. A mind that thinks and does not become a mental printing press of someone else's thought. Let us see how our children think.
Have we ever allowed them to?
