Progressive Education in the 1940’s

Tuesday, October 19, 2010

Here’s an interesting video I found showing the difference between Traditional and Progressive Education.

“We are trying to help the child learn to face actuality. And on this basis build his ideas, his character, his sense of self-reliance; of how to live and wake with others. In a word, we are equipping the child to face his future by learning to face intelligently his immediate present.”

-William Heard Kilpatrick

About Me

I am Paula Garcia and Teacher Papol is just one of the many nicknames I got from the children I’ve worked with through the years. I am currently a First Grade teacher during the day and an MA Psychology student at night.

I like writing during my free time--as a way of destressing and keeping track of the things that go on in my life.

My goal is to share my experiences and ideas about activities, dealing with children and families, resources, etcetera to help my fellow teachers in their journey of touching lives.
