recognizes the extraordinary in each child
believes that children are capable of self-directed learning
adapts to the brilliance of the young mind
inspires the student toward purposeful action
presents authentic tasks
provides scope for meaningful exploration
emphasizes discovery
whets curiosity
offers depth rather than breadth
encourages personal responsibility in learning
