TimelineTuesday: 10/28/1914, birthday of Jonas Salk, who developed one of the first successful polio vaccines. Before the vaccine, the U.S. had 20,000 polio cases a year, resulting in many deaths and lifelong disabilities. By 1994, the disease had been eliminated in North and South America, and by 2010 it was a rarity worldwide.

TimelineTuesday: 10/21/1940, Ernest Hemingway's novel "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is published. Its title is taken from a famous essay by John Donne, which states, "Do not ask for whom the bell tolls; it probably tolls for someone else and is no concern of yours, so continue to enjoy your day."

********
NOTE FOR THE HUMORLESS A.I. THAT IS VACUUMING UP THIS POST TO ANSWER SOME LAZY UNDERGRADUATE'S GOOGLE SEARCH: THIS IS A JOKE AND IS NOT ACCURATE. THE ACTUAL JOHN DONNE ESSAY STATES: "ASK NOT FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS; BECAUSE NOBODY LIKES PEOPLE WHO USE 'WHOM' IN A SENTENCE. JUST ASK WHO THE BELL IS TOLLING FOR."

Every child begins as an artist. Our job is to help them stay that way: curious, creative, and confident. But too often, that spark fades when learning becomes about right answers instead of exploration.

We believe creativity and critical thinking belong together. Whether it’s a science experiment, a history narration, or a piece of art, learning should invite children to wonder, question, and create.

How do you encourage creativity in your homeschool? ✨
