Good Teaching

Children are inherently very smart.

We should keep tricking them into believing that that is true.

If a child missed seven out ten word problems, say, " WOW!! You got three correctly for the first try".

If a child can not do something, say, " When I was your age, I was worse. Let's try it again. I am sure you can get better".

Good thing to say: This is easy. You can do it.
