Have you ever asked yourself why children go to shcool? You will 1 say that they go to learn their own language and other languages, arithmetic,history, science, and all the other 2 . That is quite true, but do they learn these things? And are these things 3 that they learn at school? We send our children to school to 4 them for the time when they wll be big and will leave for themselves. Nearly all they study at school has some 5 use in their life, but is that the only reason why they go to school? There is more in education than just learning facts. We go to school 6 all to learn how to learn, so that when we have 7 school we can continue to learn. A man who really knows how to learn wll always be successful, because 8 he has to do something new which he has never had to do before, he will rapidly teach himself how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person, on the other 9 , is probably unable to do something new, or does it badly. The purpose of schools, therefore, is not just to teach language, arithmetic,ect., 10 to teach pupils the way to learn.
