Eagle Way Tip of the Week
Our core value for the months of January and February is Intellectual Curiosity, simply defined as “wanting to know more”. According to The Character Lab, curiosity is important because,
“When you’re curious about something, you process it deeply, rather than superficially. You also voluntarily spend more time learning about things that spark your curiosity. As a result, you more readily remember what you learn. In general, people who are more curious are happier and better liked.”
Here are few articles from the Parent Toolkit website about encouraging curiosity at home:
