I was encouraged to read this book by my upline for jamberry. It is geared towards the direct sales/multilevel marketing industry, but a lot of it can be applicable to every day life. (Full review here: http://melodysreview.blogspot.com/2015/09/book-review-go-pro-by-eric-worre.html) The theme that I really liked was that we should never stop learning.
"There are no bad experiences and no good experiences, only learning experiences." This is something that I want to make sure that my children understand.
Eric Worre talked about this one school that had a plan-do, review philosophy.
"In the plan-do review process children make plans, carry them out, and reflect on what they have done. In doing so, children learn to take initiative, solve problems, work with others, and accomplish their goals-their play becomes purposeful and focused. By making plan-do review a successful and integral part of your classroom's daily routine, you'll learn how you can promote learning and build on children's interests and intrinsic motivation."
I really wonder why the public school arena doesn't incorporate this philosophy more. I guess it is because they wouldn't be able to create lesson plans, and totally have to revamp the system which costs money. This is why I am grateful for the chance to homeschool! I can use this philosophy in my children's education!
