The education system - 2014-01-08-08-48






There are as many ways to God as there are people to reach …

There are as many talents given by God as there are people to receive.

Almost everyone starts in the garden.
They tend the plants and the birds and the beasts.

If they’re lucky, they’ll stay there.

But then someone comes along and says, “Why don’t you be like God?”  And they think, “Oh what an idea”.  So they try that, and then God comes along and they get thrown out.

Then God knows they need to work it off, so He lets them …

If they’re lucky, they’ll stay there…

But some get bored easily, and then they look for something more…

So they keep searching till they find what they’re looking for…  (could be many iterations here – there are as many activities, as there are people to enjoy them…) – some work with music, and some with iron-ore.

So let the impartation of knowledge also be so:

First gardening, when the child is young….
If they’re happy with that, let them stay with that…

If they’re not, then they could learn farming…
If they’re happy with that, let them stay with that…

Then music,
If they’re happy with that, let them stay with that…

Then iron-ore,
If they’re happy with that, let them stay with that…

Then…..
Academics, I suppose

But only for those interested.  If the interest is not there, or the child is happy with something on the way, let them enjoy their bliss that day…


SO let the education system reflect that…

The education system






The education system :

Education is the impartation of discovered information to willing students who wish to learn….

Some wish to learn Mathematics,
Some wish to learn Arithmetic,
Some wish to learn a language
Some wish to go home

Some wish to play a game
Some wish to tie the score
Some just have a love of the game
Doesn’t matter, who scores…

Some sing a song,
Some write a tune,
Some listen to it all,
And some lose their cool…

It doesn’t really matter
Everyone’s not the same
We all start in the garden
Then we go on our way

Some stay in the garden
Some stay in the fields
Some play on music
And some like iron ore

It’s really alright…
Just what you do
Doesn’t have to be something
Just anything will do….

But when kids are children
And they need a place
To recreate for a while
To play a game…

We give them a space there
Or here or everywhere
Where they all can congregate
And spend the day…

And they sit together, or sit apart
They listen to the teacher
Teaching at the start

They get a little exercise
To do at the end of the class
They do the exercise there,
And then they go on home….

Show their parents what they did
When they were alone
And their parents are so relieved
There’s nothing more to do…

So we provide the choices….
In all our schools
A game, a song, a dance, a skit
Or just plain old academics….

Got to give the choice
To see what they like
To see what they’re good at
To see where they shine…..

And then it’s all together
And who knows what happens next
We just provide the environment
And it’s all upto them…

They can choose what they wish,
Study for a bit,
If they like what they study
They can keep on doing it….

But if they don’t like it
Then we allow them all
To shift to where they’re comfortable
Yeah, they’re all long gone…

Call them back, gently now
And see if they will come
They’re waiting for an invitation
..

Why are they waiting for an invitation?
Ya it takes two to tango
Can’t do it alone


But since I’m so used to it..
Yeah, I go my way alone….

You can walk by my side,
If you are inclined,
It’s up to you, where you go,
But you have your life..

Two trees entwined,
Cannot separate….

They’ve grown up like this now,
Yeah, they keep that way….
