My sons are enrolled in a theatre arts program. To assist them with their growth I ask them to:

Write 3 things

that they learned from class.

Following this week’s class, one of my sons asked me:

Does it have to be something my teacher taught me or can it be what I observed?

This gave me pause.

It confirms what I know to be true about learning.

That many of the lessons learned are gained not in what is said by a titled leader or expert, but by what is seen through behaviors and experienced hands on.

Learning is expansive, not restricted to an official lesson – it cannot be contained in a syllabus or guide book.

Learning pours out through every interaction.

Are we being attentive students?

What is a lesson you have learned through observation?

Let’s grow together, share below.

Love,
