Big Learning Magazine Column

Note: This page is for magazine editors interested in running the Big Learning column in their publications.

Why Big Learning?

Parents are the "first and best" teachers, but when school starts, parents may back away from their teaching role. How sad, since so much important and lasting learning happens outside school. Parents can make a huge difference in their children's intellectual development, and they want to know how to do it.

The Big Learning Magazine Column can help.

Each column is packed with ideas for adding intellectual punch to typical family activities.

Column Features

• Activities are easy to do and easy to learn from
• Activities fit naturally into everyday family life
• Activities build skills and concepts in math, science, and other important subjects
• Internet links help families explore further

Big Learning is unique - it's not about school, it's about learning.
