Teach me and I will remember.
Involve me and I learn.
- Benjamin Franklin
This post is dedicated to all my NEH Benjamin Franklin Buddies! I am sending you new school clothing virtually (oh how I wish). I first learned more about Ben and his amazing life while attending a National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Seminar in 2011. Before this experience (which I will tell more stories of), I had very little understanding of the truly incredible life led by Benjamin Franklin. I love this quote by him, because as a teacher, it is a great inspiration for us as we begin a new school year. Involve your children and they will learn! Have a great year!!! | If you would like to learn more about Benjamin Franklin and his amazing life, click the link above. | Thank you to my former student, Ava, who very kindly dropped this surprise package on my doorstep. You are so thoughtful!!! I can't wait to wear it! |
