Putting Together an Eclectic Curriculum
Cafi Cohen
The best way to accomplish an eclectic style of learning is to work together with your children to find topics that interest them and lead to further learning. Author Cafi Cohen discusses how learning from mistakes along the way, and trusting that they were the best judges of what was right for their family, allowed them to develop a learning style that was both eclectic and effective.
Yukon - Charley Rivers National Preserve
Located along the Canadian border in central Alaska, the preserve protects 115 miles of the 1,800-mile Yukon River and the entire Charley River basin. Numerous rustic cabins and historic sites are reminders of the importance of the Yukon River during the 1898 gold rush. Paleontological and archeological sites here add much to our knowledge of the environment thousands of years ago. Peregrine falcons nest in the high bluffs overlooking the river, while the rolling hills that make up the preserve are home to an abundant array of wildlife. The Charley, a 100-mile long wild river, is considered by many to be the most spectacular river in Alaska.
