Hello Community! It's March which means I'm sharing our new guided reflective prompt. This month we're talking about Liberated Learning! Children are born with an innate curiosity and a powerful drive to explore, create, and understand the world around them. But too often, this natural inclination is stifled by rigid structures, predetermined outcomes, and narrow definitions of success. Liberated learning begins with believing that children are capable, competent, and full of ideas. Rather than imposing learning from the outside in, educators can unleash children’s potential by tuning into the learning that is already happening—especially through play.

This month, we're talking about joyful teaching. We must reclaim joy as a legitimate, necessary condition of teaching and learning. We must interrogate how schoolification and academic pushdown have positioned joy as suspicious or expendable. Check out the guided reflective prompts for thinking about joy. And join me here on Wednesday, 2/18 at 6 pm EST for a live discussion about joyful teaching!
