Taking your child outside to play in the fresh air is a great way to allow them to let off steam, as well as being good for their health.

School as we know it is a system intentionally structured to create hierarchies among minor children before they reach adulthood.
If you benefited from this system of oppression, you have an obligation to push back & try to dismantle your privilege.
Yes, Bria! #selfdirectedlearning #SelfDirectedEducation
“Self-Directed Education recognizes that you can’t compartmentalize learning into something that only happens in direct instruction... Instead learning is something that occurs through the process of living life.” Bria Bloom, ASDE Community Manager #selfiedirected

Giving kids the freedom to take responsibility for their own learning is actually a great preparation for college.
Is it a guarantee? No. But neither is school.
