In this world of cyber everything, we welcome you to our community – The Write Journey Community. Together we explore life. In particular, we explore “education”, and all that education encompasses: academics, character, critical thinking, creativity, inclusion, etc. Education encompasses ALL aspects of life because education is about learning. Consider this definition of education: “the imparting and acquiring of knowledge through teaching and learning . . . “.
Perhaps we’ve come to think of education as something that happens “at school” – with “experts” “teaching” children and youth. But the past couple of years have challenged many to rethink the meaning of education, or at least to question the high calling of education, including who is best equipped to oversee your child’s educational experience. The world of education has been shaken up. I venture to say it’s still shaking for many individuals – adults and children alike. As a result, we choose to see new opportunities:
Thinking outside the norms
Pursuing balance
Engaging a variety of platforms
Validating the individual
Perhaps most importantly: Finding our voice
These represent just a few of the opportunities we can choose to explore, as a result of the shaking . . . and even the breaking. We are here for you and your children. We are a part of the solution. We affirm your choices. We strive to show up responsibly for our children – your children.
At TWJ, we find excitement in the possibilities, as we partner with parents and educators to bring the absolute best language arts education to all children. With spring in the air, we plant the seeds of compassion, collaboration, and community as we consider defining “education” anew. Let the planting begin.
Educating together, Kris
