LEARNING QUOTE OF THE MONTH - FEBRUARY

When we judge a child on their ability to perform well in a traditional "pen and paper" test are we narrowing our understanding and appreciation of all that child has to offer?  Are we in danger of taking away a child's self esteem and confidence?  This month's quote is from Albert Einstein who was considered a failure at school.  


"Everybody is a genius.  But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."
