Thoughts of the Day

It is important that children develop a sense of wonder and enlightenment and with that they can create within themselves a true love for learning. Learning should never be forced,only encouraged. We all learn in different ways and when the time is right for us. Children are unique and as I always say education should not be  a one size fits all approach. Education should be fun, engaging and differentiated. Education should fit the needs of the learner at that exact time when the teacher is educating them. At the same time, we as educators are learning so much from children. They can truly open our hearts and minds and guide us to view the world through magnificent eyes.
At Loorducation - learning is hands on and FUN!!!

Making. Learning. Fun.

I am dedicated and passionate about making learning fun. I wish for all children to develop a healthy, strong love for learning. My philosophy is – learning is best hands on and using all senses so children get the optimal experience.

Fall Into Learning...


Learning happens everywhere. The best classrooms are the ones without any walls.
Optimal learning requires the use of the whole body and all of our senses. Learning is an interactive, hands on experience. Children learn by doing. Children learn by pretending, acting, exploring, engaging...If children do not learn the way we teach them then we must teach them in a way that they are going to learn.

Hello!!!!

Just a Little Bit…

I also enjoy documenting the activities / lessons /arts & crafts I create in edited photos for Loorducation. The art of teaching and the fine art of education fascinate me. I believe in making learning fun. Learning is a hands on approach, using all senses for the ultimate learning experience. I love to design unique educational related items.

I started a http://www.facebook.com/loorducation last year. It just so happened to be a few months after I created this blog and opened http://www.twitter.com/loorducation – both were requirements for my MEd program. I had to start a blog and post things for my classes and it took a whole turn when I started sharing my son’s journey with autism. Just a few days ago, https://www.tumblr.com/blog/loorducation was created with hopes of broadening the scope of my brand, Loorducation.
Loorducation has also recently joined the Google+ Community, so we are getting all that together.
Come on over and say hi!! We are making our way around the interwebs. We hope you enjoy what we have to offer and share. There is so much more goodness to come. Thank you for being a part of this awesome journey.
As always, QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? SUGGESTIONS? Always welcome. Welcome to share. Come network.

Constructive Learning

Things have been going great at Loorducation. We have been very active. This past week we made many different sensory bags. We also used kinetic sand and cornstarch mixed with water for great sensory fun. These experiences went very well. After all the hand son activities, Jorge Juan wanted to play school. Without being prompted, he started to write spelling words and continued to write and draw. This was excellent. The sensory activities calmed him down and worked up his fine motor skills to prepare his hands for writing – willingly. I loved it, we went with it. We played school. He was the teacher. He even had to put his glasses on. He gave me a spelling test and corrected it with a star and happy face. He was so excited. This was great. He was really into it. He loves school and loves to learn. I am very blessed. His writing skills are coming along well. By giving him options and well needed breaks in between homework from the school week, he feels more secure and less pressured. Thus, causing him to be engaged and engrossed in spontaneous learning activities. Which, in turn, will gear him up and ready him for the next week of school academics. When children feel well, they will learn well. That is the bottom line. The well being comes first.
