    Worth a mention is the way the typical kid's brain works: in overdrive. This is why kids can so quickly acquire new skills: musical instruments, foreign languages, mathematics. That's how it works for them day in, day out -- learn new stuff.

    Kids like to learn new things. They like to be entertained and captivated. "Go look it up" is not the answer kids are looking for.

    There's the saying, "throw it on and see what sticks." I'm amazed at the volume of information that sticks.

    • True. I love looking things up, but I noticed that nearly every other student I know prefers to get the information right away.Jaline
