Critical thinking for your children

-

Parents need to spend more quality time with their children, teaching them those skills that they get by just growing up. Critical thinking means helping children make connections with the real world. It s about helping your child evaluate informatiom that is presented to them from a different point of view. 

How can you do that? A simple strategy would be to ask for clarity and precision. This simple strategy will force your child to think more profound, to re-think what he/she wants to say and to find a better way to express himself/herself. Ask questions like, "What other ideas could we try?" or encourage your child to generate options by saying, "Let’s think of all the possible solutions."

Let me give you some examples of strategic sentences. When your child says ”You never play with me!”You might say ”Never, ever!?” or ”Everybody has one” You might say ”Who exactly?”. Another way would be to help him/her form hypotheses. Try asking your child, "If we do this, what do you think will happen?" or "Let's predict what we think will happen next." Respect his responses whether you view them as correct or not. You could say, "That is interesting. Tell me why you think that." Use phrases like "I am interested to hear your thinking about this."  "How would you solve this problem?"  "Where do you think we might find more information to solve this problem?"

Stim ca noi oamenii sintem creati inca de la Facere pe o linie de urmasi deoarece sintem fiinte muritoare obisnuite,si trebuie sa intelegem ca daca sintem muritori atunci avem creata Karma prin care revenim in trup in ciclurile vietii apartinand reincarnarilor facind parte din Lantului Spiralei Evolutiei.Prin analizele si studiile facute de mai marii lumii stiinta Astrologiei opereaza in analizele si interpretarile sale bazindu-se pe combinatii ale unor elemente precise,specifice temei de nastere. In Astrologie vem 34 de variabile ca elemente de baza:10 planete,12 zodii,si 12 case. Din combinatia lor  rezulta toate variantele capacitatilor personale omenesti. In legatura cu Astrologia Karmica ar trebui sa se stie ca este Astrologia cea mai importanta decit toate,fiind denumita si Astrologia tristetii si durerii sufletesti care ne atentioneaza drastic si usturator  daca am comis greseli,care ne arata cum  sa reparam acele greseli pe care le comit...

SARMISEGETUZA SI SECRETELE EI

Imagine
In 1993 , Romania demara o ampla campanie de punere in valoare a cetatilor dacice de la Gradistea . Un studiu multidisciplinar efectuat la fata locului a pus in evidenta faptul ca sub ceea ce este acum decopertat exista un urias ansamblu arhitectonic , un ansamblu militaro – civil compact, cu mai multe nuclee , intins pe o suprafata de peste 200 de kilometri patrati. Acest oras ingropat este predacic si e foarte bogat in aur . Specialistii romani au intocmit niste planuri de detaliu cu siturile subterane nedecopertate, pe care le-au strans intr-un dosar trimis Ministerului Culturii si Cultelor. O copie a planurilor a ajuns insa si la cautatorii clandestini de comori, care au relatii puternice in zona clasei politice. Hotii stiu acum cu exactitate unde sa caute. In mod ciudat, posibilitatea ca vestigiile din Muntii Orastiei sa fie scoase de pe lista UNESCO, merge mana in mana cu deja celebrul scandal al bratarilor dacice . Dupa cum ...
