Absorbing tales, most likely for those of us with young children in the aforementioned age bracket. First time I'd read about Jean Piaget too. Was reading through @tokenadult's[1] site earlier and didn't see much mention of Piaget, so another good reference to add to the list. This is the probably the most insightful part of the AMS narrative: >OK, if it is so hard to teach kids the notion of a number, what am I trying to do? What is the point of my lessons? I said it many times and I am going to say it again: the meaning of the lessons is the lessons themselves. Because they are fun. Because it’s fun to ask questions and look for the answers. It’s a way of life. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=tokenadult https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=tokenadult
