Education Is Power

Who is in charge of our children's education? What happens when parents don't do their job? When children have no sense of reading, writing, till they hit that school room head on? Who is responsible to initiate, ingratiate, the word, so language is understood from infancy and not suddenly at five years old when communication receives the attention it deserves? Parents stand up and take notice schools do not provide the only source You are your child's first teacher You are the one who gives him voice. From you he will learn expression From you he will learn who he is From you he will learn his roots Give him your love and attention. Provide an environment filled with books A place where reading takes precedence Instill in him a joy for learning With gentle hand and loving looks. Model the love of learning read on your own or with till without even knowing he'll develop a yearning to know, to explore, to evaluate all there is and more.
