Today’s kindergartens are becoming more like the rest of school, with children filling out math worksheets and drilling on phonics flash cards. Mitchel Resnick argues for exactly the reverse: the rest of school (in fact, the rest of life) should be more like kindergarten. The needs of today’s society would be ideally met with kindergarten-style learning, based on the “Four P’s of Creative Learning:" Projects, Passion, Peers, and Play.
