Closeup of last two principles

1 Social Learning is as important to success as academic learning.

2 We learn best by constructing our own understanding through exploration, discovery, and application.

3 The greatest cognitive growth occurs through social interactions within a supportive community.

4 There is a set of personal/social skills that students need to learn and practice in order to be successful socially and academically:

Cooperation, Assertion, Responsibility, Empathy, Self-control

5 Knowing the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual needs of the students we teach is as important as knowing the content we teach.

6 Trust among adults is a fundamental necessity for academic and social success in a learning community.
