The Ideas Flowchart

So much of what we do needs more thought. How often do we do things that we did last year, just because we did them last year? How often do we do things that seem like they might be educationally powerful when in fact they're not? Too often.

Using the flowchart just as a thought-process, can help you iron out all of those ideas and traditions that are really not giving the kids anything of substance.

Don't forget though, it is OK to just have fun sometimes!
