"We are shut up in schools for ten to fifteen years and come out at last with a bellyfull of words. . . . We cannot use our
hands or our legs or our eyes or our arms. . . . It is well if we can swim or skate. We are afraid of a horse, a cow, a dog,
a spider. Far better was the Roman rule to teach a boy nothing he could not learn standing ." - Henry David Thoreau
Instruction is most effective when it is rooted in physical experience. By engaging students in real-world projects learning becomes authentic and curriculum becomes a means rather than an end. That is a powerful distinction. Interest levels soar when students understand applications for concepts. They don't have to ask the age old question: "Why are we doing this?"
