A reflective way of teaching English
|
As soon as the gift of speech is given to a child, one of his earliest words is “why”. After “mama”, then “papa”, it is perhaps the first word a child uses. The word is fundamental to the structure of human thought. From “why” all the other questions are born : “what”,”who”,”how”, “when” and “where”. But “why” remains the earliest probe put out by the child to touch at the world about him, the earliest probe into the darkness outside. |
