correlation between success and
family background, race, national
origin, financial status, or even
educational

“The most important


single factor
influencing learning
is what the learner
already knows.
Ascertain this and
teach him
accordingly.”
“No one has yet realized the
wealth of sympathy, the
kindness and generosity hidden
in the soul of a child. The effort
of every true education should
be to unlock that treasure.”

maximize the capacity of each

CROSS-CHECKING WITH STUDENTS
A message to Muslims
 The Muslim community in
many parts of the world is
like a butterfly in its cocoon
phase. The cocoon is dark
and warm and its wrapping
gives it a sense of security.
Now the phase of early
development has ended and
the beautiful multi-colored
butterfly must arise and
show its intricate
 patterns to the world!
