This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

Today at Clear Spring School I've been preparing materials for the week's classes. As you will see at right, I've started a new feature. A hands-on poll. You can select more than one answer in this one. The purpose of the poll is to help me to become better acquainted with my readers and to allow you to share your thoughts and feelings without having to leave comments. Please take part in the poll, but please leave comments related to blog post, too. Your participation helps to give voice to our hands. As a friend of mine Frank Wilson stated, the hands are like a large mountain. They make their own weather. Their impact on our lives is so profound as to go unnoticed.
