Speaking of memories in single file.. By (me!) Sandra, tvgp
Let me explain it in a way that complements my prior post:
Memory stored somewhere... Dormant.
Immediate access! (Key that opened; awoke..) = article about juanita haugen scholarships..
Single file:(multiple associations/multiple potential hyperlinks)
1. I met her! She came to one of our good neighbors holiday boutiques (year?) And we had a brief conversation.. But i had "no idea who she was" -as the saying goes.. Would later learn about her, and her contributions..
2. Community of character! -did not know for who knows how long.. Who to credit.. Juanita haugen! Connect the dots... Same lady i met at our boutique..
3. Compassion... My daughters poem; inspired by... Somewhere here in my blog posts.. Her "responsibility" award..
4. Comparisons between juanita's "community of character" traits.. Vs. The 9 fruits of the spirit...
-however we communicate this emphasis on character.. Im grateful; very grateful..
We are write now experiencing the results of making book facts (math, science, history) more important than...
It is not that those things arent vital too..
But character; learning to be a good person, caring about personal integrity and caring about others.. This we have been neglecting!
How is it that there are bullies in middle school and high school?
Because they have been required to pass the wrong tests..
How is it that we end up with college students raping other college students? Because in order to graduate from high school and be accepted at a college, theyve only been required to know.. What?
No one should receive a diploma and move forward until they master respect for other human beings.
Im all for testing students.. But we need to change the tests, the standards, and what it takes to pass..
