[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it important to you that your children learn how to memorize?[/quote] Because memorizing things like times tables and written work helps to develop neural pathways. Something the supports learning. Education should not be limited to memorization and memorization does not take away from developing critical thinking skills. [b]I suspect most kids would benefit from a certain degree of memorization given the attention span of most kids today[/b].
