I recently read an absolutely wonderful book about child development called NurtureShock. In one chapter it described a program being used with pretty astounding results by daycares and elementary schools called "Tools of the Mind." I wanted to share the information because it seems like a really great methodology. Here's the official Tools of the Mind website. There are impressive stats on how it transforms classes with a lot of underprivileged kids, and how kids in the program typically perform a couple of grades above their own, all of which NurtureShock goes into in detail.
I would so love it if there were a daycare or school in my area doing Tools of the Mind, and I wanted to share it because there are a lot of directors on here who might be willing to look into it or try it!
