Peter Gray’s “Freedom To Learn”

• Head Start’s Value Lies in Care, Not Academic Training
  Head Start and other programs for young children could work better if we removed the schoolishness and reverted to a greater focus on care.
• Kindergarten Teachers Are Quitting, and Here Is Why
  As one teacher wrote: "Who knew 5- and 6-year-olds could burn out? They certainly can, and I worry about how they’ll continue through school for the 12 years after I have them."
• When Children Play, They Follow the Golden Rules of Fairness
  Children are much better at sorting things out and playing fair than many adults believe, and adult interventions usually hinder more than they help.
