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.

installing road signs
Today we installed the kid made signs designed to give the children greater consciousness about their use of the school campus. While some of the signs had no writing or had misspelled words and some were intended just to get others to slow down and enjoy the beauty, each student knew what his or her sign meant, gave careful consideration to its placement and described what it meant as we took a campus tour to see and admire each other's installations. This was a project for students in grades 1, 2 and 3.
