"Give a kid a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a kid to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime." I don't know who coined this phrase but it stuck with me when I heard it. When searching for learning sites on the internet, I believe it's best to try and "weed out" sites that tend to give the fish.

Are you a teacher or a parent?

Also, let's try and convince our offspring that the classroom isn't the only place to learn. The real classroom exists inside the mind, and it can be as large or small, not as he/she chooses, but as he/she is "programmed to believe". Therefore, we as guardians of the next generation must fight to keep their minds open-ended.

We must also give them the realization that when they learn, it's like a secret kept to themselves, like secrets of the universe if you will, until the right time as to communicate that secret to the world.

In terms of learning, too many people like to leave their children off to some other form of learning thinking "Well, they'll be fine." This is most likely not as straightforward as it is very passive, and that is the slow chokehold on the neck of humanity.

I read a joke in a religious jokebook: "Today we are going to watch a video on teenagers who watch too much television." While it was amusing, it really rang a bell.

Let's also convince our children to use certain words in place of the most commonly used ones: for instance, teach them to think of "learning" as "collecting information".

All of these exhortations, I believe, will cause enough mental aspiration in each child to think above the classroom and more proactively. Let's be honest with each other in that a lot of times the classroom can be like a pool of sharks to some children. Instead of allowing them to feel like they're lying on the ocean floor staring at 30 hungry sharks, help them to understand that it can be like they looking above a fish tank, staring at 30 goldfish. Points of view can really change a child's perception.

Please accept my apologies as this response is probably not what you were intending.

You need to be more specific. What subjects are you working with him on -- or is this an all round curriculum that you are looking for?

Here's a site I like -- she has links to about anything you want to learn.
