The Land Of Curiosity, Michael Pritchard Sep 1987

The Land Of Curiosity, Michael Pritchard

Michael Pritchard

It all began many years ago in my daughter's 4th grade class. I wanted the group with whom I met once a week to think about rules. So I wrote a little episode about The Basic Rule. The responses to this episode were used as a basis for another episode, this one dealing with The Golden Rule. Responses to that episode led to yet another one on rules.

I offer no definition. But I do have some reflections that, I hope, will contribute to our understanding of critical thinking.
