The number one lesson taught in public school is that truth comes from authority.
This is why so many people are unable to distinguish the scientific method from “authoritative science” which we see on television and aren’t allowed to question on social media.
If you want your child to be a critical thinker, in the area of science, for example, don’t have them read from a textbook. Rather, have the child love and establish a relationship with the scientific method.
Classical Learner has developed a course for children to study the scientific method and see it in action. Starting in September, our students will participate in a live class working through this lesson plan and doing the experiments together. If you’d like to join us for this series of classes, join Homeschools Connected today!
