Great summary by @winterjessica of what's gone wrong with American ECE and the Montessori movement. A disservice to children and Maria herself. newyorker.com/books/under-re…

A Ukrainian teacher created the ultimate vision of childhood education 70 years ago, the "School of Joy". A perfect inspiration for schools everywhere, today and tomorrow. @DianeRavitch @pasi_sahlberg @drmikehynes @HargreavesBC abc.net.au/radionational/…

@williamdoylenyc @pasi_sahlberg @leoniehaimson @John_Merrow @DianeRavitch @drmikehynes @Screensandkids It started much longer ago than you realize. See books.google.com/books/about/Ch… Spoiler: there was a coup for control of education that teacher-trainers rarely learn about.

Froebel innovated this type of guided play 180+ years ago. Great to see it still at work. Let's get it into more classrooms! See also twentyonetoys.com/pages/empathy-…

Mrs. Sherman@MrsShermanOakSt

Talking all about positional words today! LOVED watching them play “match mine” where one partner made a shape and then described to their partner what to do by using words like above, below, next to, etc. it was so cool to see how close they came each time. GREAT teamwork!

"Read LET THE CHILDREN PLAY if you have any doubt about the two bold truths laid bare by the authors: that play is the engine of childhood and the foundation of effective education." @pasi_sahlberg @JoshFullan @BoStjerne @SRinconGallardo @DrJeanforkids

With @SRinconGallardo & @DrJeanforkids, happy to share our new paper Play to Thrive. Hope & urgency for a call to action in this time of great upheaval. maximumcity.ca/s/Play-To-Thri…

Froebel USA@froebelusa·17 Ara

@williamdoylenyc @pasi_sahlberg @JoshFullan @BoStjerne @SRinconGallardo @DrJeanforkids Yes, the origin of ECE 180+ years ago was based on that. USA abandoned it a century ago. Most nations followed us, but some like Finland have returned. Restating the obvious won't lead to change. Examine why it was abandoned.

Bravo and thank you! Finally a serious look at the culmination of Froebel's method. For too long, the field of education has cherry-picked Froebel's ideas without considering the entirety of it (ironic considering his holistic view on educating the child).

Dr Ruth Churchill Dower@earlyartsuk

A beautiful opportunity to explore Froebel's Gifts in 3.5 yrs of fully-funded research with a killer supervisory team. How exciting for someone! Apply here: mmu.ac.uk/research/resea…
