In this episode we discuss the concern many parents have of how to assess where children are on their learning journeys. We’ll be answering the following questions:
- How can we tell if children have learned without assessments?
- Don’t we have to push children to get out of their comfort zones?
- How will they learn to “buckle down” and not just always play?
