This week on That's SO EDVOLUTIONARY, Annie and Ali look into how our western beliefs about children lead to practices that undermine the very things we are trying so hard to accomplish in schools.
Ideas are proposed for segments of a new roadmap that respect children's development and needs as people, so follow along on our Instagram at edvolutionarylearning to see how we are thinking about these things in our own classroom!
