Reasons for Learning (No weeks or things)

The following has nothing to do with homework- but everything to do with our reasons why... This conversation between my 5 year old nephew and my 4 year niece was overhead by my sister and thoroughly enjoyed...

"They love to play and have amazing imaginations--one morning I overheard the following conversation:

Em: (sung to a made-up tune) I live in a rainbow rock castle...
Zee: (sung to a different, but still made-up, tune) I live in a golden rock castle...
Em: (still singing) But everything is not right!
Zee: (still singing, the song becoming lower and more serious) Because our castles need to be upgraded!

And which point I burst out laughing, and that ended the song because they wanted to know what was so funny."

... To Our Ungraded Future and to those teachers who need to learn how to teach those who will lead the way...
