How would you feel if your child WANTED to go to school over the summer or was sad when school was closed for a snow day?

Mimosa Jones Tunney speaks to the Teaching Your Toddler show about the curriculum that is inspiring kids across the country to WANT to learn, who love school and who get sad for snow days and summer break. Can you imagine?

Mimosa is a writer, researcher and the founder of both the American Emergent Curriculum and The School House, a private elementary school in New York. She’s also a former political speech and Hollywood television writer as well as an avid philanthropist.

She's also our favorite kind of guest - an activated mom! She saw the deficiency in public education where schools "dumb down" kids and "teach to the test" instead of what she calls "smart up" the kids and teaching to their interests and passions that keeps them loving learning throughout their school life.

Over 300,000 teachers per year leave the profession, often out of frutration. The curriculum The School House offers can be used by homeschoolers, "micro-schools"/learning pods as well as brick and mortar schools. This curriculum is so inspiring for kids and so successful, it could inspire those teachers back to the classroom.

So far, communities using this curriculum have appeared in Texas and Florida, and continue to spread across the country. The school is private and continues to beat the state test scores, without ever teaching to the test, because the kids LOVE learning.

Mimosa also noted that in their school, they do not allow politics or gossip from the teachers so that everyone feels welcomed and the school can concentrate on learning. It's truly a novel approach that addresses children's learning stages and their areas of interest.

This approach also often alleviates or eliminates typicial learning challenges that children display due to the antiquated approach most typical public schools take for learning.
