2017-03-16T04:22:11+00:00 http://wildflowerschools.org/about robertogreco committed to remaining small, teacher-led, integrated in the community, and responsive to the needs of children Inspired by the work of Christopher Alexander, Wildflower schools are shopfront schools that consist of a single classroom, with the faculty both teaching in the classroom and administrating the school. By preserving a small scale, teachers are able to make decisions in their day-to-day teaching that respond to the intellectual needs of the children, and are able to make decisions on a school-wide basis that respond to their own vision and the contextual needs of the families. The shopfront model also allows these communities to seamlessly integrate into neighborhoods. Children are visible in the community as they walk to and from school, to their local playground or garden, and to civic spaces that would otherwise be on-site in a larger institution. 3. A Lab School: serving as a research setting dedicated to advancing the Montessori Method in the context of the modern world. Each of the Wildflower schools serves as a lab school to help us better understand and advance the Montessori Method, and to help us propose empirically-supported design for new materials. We seek to integrate modern technologies in observation and documentation without changing the concrete, didactic nature of the classroom itself. We further seek to refine the development of Montessori-consistent apparatuses that prepare children for the cognitive patterns of modern fluencies. 4. A Seamless Learning Community: blurring the boundaries of home-schooling and institutional schooling by placing high priority on parent education and giving parents and integral role in the classroom. Wildflower schools look for ways in which children's home, school, and community environments can offer more seamless experiences, reflecting consistent perspectives on children's development and engaging them as authentic contributors in each setting. We believe that parents and families offer a knowledge about children which is equally important to the professional preparation of teachers, and seek opportunities for parent-knowledge to inform classroom practice and teacher-knowledge to inform the home. 5. An Artist-in-residence: bringing richness to the learning environment by giving the children opportunities to observe and interact with adults doing day-to-day creative work. Because we believe that children learn best in environments that model lifelong learning and creativity, each Wildflower school engages an artist-in-residence. Each school offers their artist studio space in a place accessible to the children, where the children can see them doing the work of their lives. In exchange, artists offer their work back to the classroom weekly, teaching children about their craft and helping children to develop their own skills. Through the artists-in-residence program, we seek to increase the awareness of the inner lives of children available to artists of all kinds and to protect children's understanding that learning and creating can happen throughout their lives and beyond their formal school experiences. 6. A spirit of generosity: Reflecting a spirit of generosity to all stakeholders, to children, to parents, to those in need, and to the local community. Often, schools are seen as a service relationship, with parents as customers, teachers as service-providers, and children as recipients of the service, to be filled with information and assessed. We see it differently -- we see that each constituency brings their special gift to one another. We see the teachers bring the gift of their love and skillfulness to the children and the parents, the parents bring the gift of nurturing and advancing the teachers in their practice and growth as teachers and leaders, and the children bring the gift of helping all of us see in a new way.  Importantly, this spirit of gift extends beyond the walls of the school: each school seeks to bring their gifts to the broader community, by being involved in the local community, by making educational opportunities that are free to the public, and by reserving slots in our schools for those in need. 7. An Attention to Nature: emphasizing the nonseparation between nature and human nature through a unique living-classroom design and extensive time in nature. It is both a contemporary imperative and an essential quality of our design that we think proactively about the impact of our work on the environment around us. By limiting the footprint of each school to a storefront, we necessarily limit the availability of private, outdoor space. Instead, we design the interior of the school to allow children to learn to care for their living environment and to surround them with abundant plant life. We site schools near to public play spaces and work with city partners to design sustainable urban gardens for which the school and neighborhood community can care. We carefully consider the materials used in the classroom and choose sustainable, nontoxic and earth-friendly options. Finally, we maintain nutritional standards that are earth-conscious and protect natural, healthful diets for children. 8. A Role in Shaping the Neighborhood: working with the community to improve local parks, streets, and establishments to create an urban environment that is healthier for children. Wildflower schools should change the way their immediate communities function and, as a part of a larger network, change the nature of their entire cities. The integration of children and families into the daily fabric of the neighborhood, we believe, will influence the lives of other neighbors, the questions asked in other educational settings, and the priorities of policymakers. We implement, then, structures that make our work transparent to their communities and expand who we define as "stakeholders" to include more than just the families we serve. From opportunities for passers-by to stop and observe the classrooms to the presence of children in local eateries, from the public gardens we create and tend, to the regular, open information sessions to inform our community about our work, we judge our approach not only by its influence on enrolled children and their families but on the city beyond our rolls. 9. An Open-source Design and Decentralized Network: advancing an ecosystem of independent Wildflower schools that mutually support one another. Finally, we recognize that issues of scale -- including increased centralized decision-making, larger administrative bureaucracies and operational overhead -- decrease the autonomy available to individual classrooms. At the same time, we value the practical benefits of a community of learners and professionals working together, and the economic efficiencies that can arise from shared resources. To balance those concerns, each school sees itself as a node in a network, maintaining autonomy in school-level decision-making while able to access the resources of the network when those resources are useful and compelling to the school. Reciprocally, each school also sees itself not only as responsible for its own operations, but as responsible for helping other schools in the network, and for helping other interested family groups to start their own Wildflower schools."]]> schools education small microschools montessori via:aimee opensource homeschool christopheralexander labschools networks community art generosity urban cities lcproject sfsh openstudioproject decentralization sepkamvar https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:3e97c2b0df30/ 2017-02-19T00:47:26+00:00 https://www.pw.org/content/reviewers_critics_laura_miller_of_slate robertogreco via:austinkleon writing reading howwewrite howweread lauramiller 2017 generosity grace attention whyweread https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:050365864a7f/ 2017-01-20T01:33:42+00:00 https://tinyletter.com/jomc/letters/reading-generously robertogreco joannemcneil markfisher howeread reading 2017 jamesbutler finitude exhaustion obsolescence technology philipkdick oppression present generosity k-punk https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:3632cd4356ca/ 2017-01-08T21:38:34+00:00 https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/jan/06/john-berger-obituary-letter robertogreco open openness johnberger 2017 generosity jeffperks mentorship ideas https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:876bfe0d6ab3/ 2017-01-08T21:30:23+00:00 https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/jan/05/john-berger-obituary-letter robertogreco johnberger generosity publishing 2017 mentorship attention listening lisaappignanesi collaboration friendship europe politics hope despair https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:a7fc0ba73b09/ 2017-01-07T04:58:55+00:00 https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/jan/06/john-berger-remembered-by-geoff-dyer-olivia-laing-and-ali-smith robertogreco johnberger 2017 geoffdyer olivialaing alismith simonmcburney marxism capitalism migration soundbites hospitality storytelling hope hopefulness utopia hierarchy consumerism compassion unselfishness questioning skepticism simoneweil creativeattention attention goldenrule humanism encouragement relationships friendship equality giving generosity solidarity suffering seeing noticing looking observation senses kindness commonality belonging ownership thinking howwethink care caring blackpanthers blackpantherparty clarity money communalism narrowness alls difference openness crosspollination hosting hosts guests strangers enemies listening canon payingattention audience audiencesofone laughter resistance existence howtolive living life howwelive refuge writing certainty tenderness https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:a2e0332c6f6d/ 2017-01-01T23:55:14+00:00 https://medium.com/future-crunch/99-reasons-why-2016-has-been-a-great-year-for-humanity-8420debc2823#.tj7kowhpd robertogreco optimism 2016 trends improvement progress health global healthcare disease conservation environment chrishadfield economics endangeredanimals animals violence climatechange politics generosity charity philanthropy via:anne charities https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:7f3dcde97227/ 2016-08-11T00:50:44+00:00 http://www.gayleallen.net/cm-048-dacher-keltner-on-the-power-paradox/ robertogreco dacherkeltner power hierarchy machiavelli influence paradox coercion 2016 thomasclarkson abolition slavery history greatergoodsciencecenter resistance ericchenoweth mariastephan houseofcards andrewscott lyndagratton irisbohnet arturobejar fransdewaal chimpanzees primates privilege superiority psychology empathy class poverty wealth inequality poor happiness humility altruism respect sfsh leadership administration parenting friendship dignity workplace horizontality sharing generosity powerlessness recognition racism gender prestige socialintelligence empowerment https://pinboard.in/ https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:e04e347cd276/ 2016-07-31T02:21:03+00:00 https://aeon.co/essays/there-s-no-emotion-we-ought-to-think-harder-about-than-anger robertogrecoI took it upon myself to break the tension and a possible resentment on his part that he has to serve a prisoner by cooking and then washing dishes, and I offered to wash dishes and he refused … He says that this is his work. I said, ‘No, we must share it.’ Although he insisted, and he was genuine, but I forced him, literally forced him, to allow me to do the dishes, and we established a very good relationship … A really nice chap, Warder Swart, a very good friend of mine. It would have been so easy to see the situation as one of status-inversion: the once-dominating Afrikaner is doing dishes for the once-despised ANC leader. It would also have been so easy to see it in terms of payback: the warder is getting a humiliation he deserves because of his complicity in oppression. Significantly, Mandela doesn’t go down either of these doomed paths, even briefly. He asks only, how shall I produce cooperation and friendship? Mandela’s project was political; but it has implications for many parts of our lives: for friendship, marriage, child-rearing, being a good colleague, driving a car. And of course it also has implications for the way we think about what political success involves and what a successful nation is like. Whenever we are faced with pressing moral or political decisions, we should clear our heads, and spend some time conducting what Mandela (citing Marcus Aurelius) referred to as ‘Conversations with Myself’. When we do, I predict, the arguments proposed by anger will be clearly seen to be pathetic and weak, while the voice of generosity and forward-looking reason will be strong as well as beautiful."]]>
