How to start educating your baby? - 0 views

  •  
    In a perfect world, parenting would come down to one sentence: Show only love, be only love. But in the world we all cope with, children grow up to face much non-loving behavior, primarily outside the home but sometimes within it as well. In Victorious Kidss Educares - Best IB school education starts as soon as the mother conceives. Research has shown that the unborn child is a highly responsive being, who is constantly acquiring new skills. It is easy, and simple to create a master piece of human excellence if education starts from the pre-natal days.

  •

School administrators prepare curriculum standards and “pacing guides” that tell teachers what to teach each day. Legions of managers supervise everything that happens in the classroom; in 2010 only 50 percent of public school staff members in the US were teachers.
