以下日常の指導で心がけている先哲の名言を引用しました。

"The right to ignore anything that doesn't make sense is a crucial element of any child's learning." by Frank Smith 

"An artful teacher sees a child's difficulty in learning to read not as a defect in the child but as a defect of his own instruction." by Donald Schön

“To communicate knowledge and to provide a model of competence, the teacher must be free to teach and to learn.” “If the teacher is also learning, teaching takes on a new quality.” by Jerome Bruner
