Teachers

Below are the common Charms (types of products) you’ll find in this Faction. Visit their pages for details about what they are and what is inside once purchased.

• Lesson Material
• Busy Book
• Activity (Aid)

Anyone can use them, of course. Education and fun activities are not bound to age or classroom.

They are, however, mainly used by teachers and parents. We try to follow established curriculae closely and make our teaching material as complete, effective and creative as possible.

That said, no single approach or textbook can ever be 100% effective for everyone every time. We do things our way, a bit more magical and freeform than most. Try our methods, then try the material made by someone else, and then someone else again. That’s how you offer your Apprentices a variety of experiences and explanations, and are sure to find something that clicks with them.

That’s the best way to get a deep understanding of a broad range of topics and skills.

Most of these resources are PDFs to be printed. This gives you two ways to customize them to your liking.

• Either use a PDF reader/editor to change the original files.
• Or modify them after printing. (Cutting out parts, writing over other parts, leaving parts out entirely, etcetera.)

In the future, we might publish the source illustrations and documents that created the PDFs in Sneakpeeks. We’re still looking for the best way to use that Faction and streamline that process.

However you like! Share them with an entire class. Prepare one as a surprise gift. Customize it for your kid.

You don’t need a special license or permission for anything. You bought the experience—it’s yours to experience it as you wish.

We’ve always been huge fans of learning. Unfortunately, our educational systems fall short. They do the exact opposite of what science suggests. They don’t teach the practical skills people actually need to be an adult. They ruin learning until every kid believes being smart is supposed to be stupid, hard, and not for them.

We create these materials based on our understanding of how learning actually works. How to make it fun and effective. How to actually achieve something, without treating children like obedient little workers. Hopefully these educational materials and activities can enlighten and satisfy many children—and adults!—around the world.

At the same time, we understand that teachers have to follow the rules! All resources in this category were made explicitly to slot into the existing curriculum. To be helpful tools on top of what your school requires from you, or helpful tools to a homeschooling parent who feels overwhelmed.

Most of all, we hope that, after you’ve found these materials and used them, you’re encouraged to try materials from the next Faction. Try a quiz instead. A puzzle. An educational game. The products in Teachers are a stepping stone, a first introduction, guiding you towards the places where learning actually happens.

Rome wasn’t build in a day. Schools are like massive oil tankers that take a while to turn. The resources in this Faction align as much with the current curriculae/systems as possible.
