  What do science and play have in common? Neuroscientist Beau Lotto thinks all people (kids included) should participate in science and, through the process of discovery, change perceptions. He's seconded by 12-year-old Amy O'Toole, who, along with 25 of her classmates, published the first peer-reviewed article by schoolchildren, about the Blackawton bees project.

• Too much grammar, too few teachers: The French education system is failing - Quartz
  So why hasn’t the French model worked? The short answer is that what’s taught in French classrooms is not particularly interesting or relevant to most pupils—including an obsessive focus on the intricacies of French grammar—and teachers haven’t been trained to bring as many students as possible up to the sought-after level.

• » Design Thinking: Second Grade Sees the Light! UTES Educator Resources
  A few weeks ago we made a huge breakthrough. In fact, the kids think they have made a scientific discovery of worldwide proportions. This all started with a simple discussion about the properties of matter. Most things we read or watch (our textbook, Brainpop Jr.) explicitly say “all things are made of matter.” So what did we do? We looked for things that weren’t! First, we had to make sure we knew all the rules (matter takes up space, has mass, etc). Then, we went on a search and test quest around our learning space. A while later, students reported their findings back to the class. Most everything in our classroom was indeed made of matter. However, there was one thing that a few were not quite sure about- LIGHT. So what did we do next?
