Learning through Living: B-17 Bomber

B-17 Bomber

The bomber was at Lebanon airport for the weekend. They actually took people up in in for a mere $359, you could also pay $10 and go inside it. We went inside and got some pictures, what a tight fit, it was a really neat experience. This actual plane was not in combat but it is the same as the ones that were. Kieran loves the history of the wars and military.

Instead of Education~ John Holt

Next to the right to life itself, the most fundamental of all human rights is the right to control our own minds and thoughts. That means, the right to decide for ourselves how we will explore the world around us, think about our own and other persons' experiences, and find and make the meaning of our own lives. Whoever takes that right away from us, as the educators do, attacks the very center of our being and does us a most profound and lasting injury. He tells us, in effect, that we cannot be trusted even to think, that for all our lives we must depend on others to tell us the meaning of our world and our lives, and that any meaning we may make for ourselves, out of our own experience, has no value."
