Cristina Romero is mother of three children and currently also collaborating as an accompanying teacher at the Liberi School (in Premià de Mar), which we met here thanks to this debate in 2. This woman also takes time to write, has published "You will paint the suns of your path" and is co-author of "A new motherhood".
Now I want to talk about his latest book "A REVOLUTION at School - Waking the Sleeping Dragon", published this year by Obstare ... a book that invites us to review "the educational world."
In the author's words, it is a call for help for a more loving, conscious, respectful, creative and happy School ... "Although in the book I share and argue that I do not consider that children need the School and that who does need it is the economic-productive system as we have precariously organized ... "
Cristina had entered the world of education as a special education teacher, speech therapist and psychomotorist, when when her first child arrived, she discovered that "we don't need anyone to educate us", although" yes they accompany us with much love and respect ".
In the first chapter of "A REVOLUTION in School - Waking the Sleeping Dragon," he says "when a child begins to be guided in what" it is convenient "to learn, postpones its own internal learning program and delegates the development of its potential route plan in the hands of adults. Adults then become 'who knows', and they have the responsibility for their own learning. "For me the phrase is very suggestive, and at least it invites reflection, don't you think?
If you want to buy it, you can do it in the publishing house itself, also in Mundo Tueris, Crianza Natural or the Casa del Libro, its price is around 13 euros without shipping costs. If you have not decided yet, you can follow their profile on Facebook.
I'm sure that will not leave anyone indifferent, although the assessments after reading can be as different as readers dare with a wonderful book that has come to discover that free learning is possible, and for us to believe in it, regardless of whether our children go to school, they are educated at home, or attend a Free School. Thus It is not necessary to know about freedom of learning so that we are interested in the book, but yes, big doses of curiosity, a restless spirit and an open mind, do you dare?
It is also a book for those who - far from the children's world - want to walk towards a world and a more conscious, respectful and free society
Happy reading, Surely we will not be the same when we finish it.
