Ashlar Lingo
The way we describe things changes the visual images we see in our minds. At Ashlar, we have found words that we believe give a more accurate description of our ways than what the more traditional words tend to mentally represent. We hope you enjoy Learning Our Lingo!
-
Instead of classrooms, we have STUDIOS.
-
Teacher-directed activities are called INVITATIONS.
-
Self-directed time and free-play is EXPLORATION.
-
Ashlar students are called QUESTERS.
-
We refer to our teachers as our MENTORS.
​
-
In place of core curriculum, we have GUIDEWORK.
-
We call individualized assignments GOALS.
-
Group assignments are our QUESTS.
The Ashlar Way is unlike the images summoned using traditional words.
This approach needs a whole new language.
