Podcast Episode 61: How to Change Your Child’s School Forever

Nov 23, 2012 | In The Loop

In The Loop with Andy Andrews, hosted by Andy Traub.

A new friend of Andy’s joins us on the show today, and shares how principles from Andy’s book The Butterfly Effect are being implemented into her school and the effect that they’re having.

 

The Butterfly Effect teaches the kids how to think and prepares them for the real world

  • Kids are caught doing something good
  • Their choices are what matter
  • They can change their future
  • Teachers get more chances to have conversations with children and give them guidance
  • Kids are being told how important they are

 

How do we change our society?

  • By little actions every day
  • Treating those we come in contact with on a daily basis in a positive manner
  • People will treat others better if they are treated well themselves
  • We’re not teaching kids what to think, but rather how to think
