I agree completely. But I also think it is helpful to understand how others who may have focused on this issue more than I have to date are approaching this. I see a fair amount of discussion regarding how we can do a better job of introducing math to children, but far less on what we should actually do. Should I just start playing around with LOGO or Scratch myself?

Anybody know of any schools/programs that introduce math to children in some of the ways that Minsky suggests? (In case it isn't obvious, I'm not a programmer (nor do I work with math)...but I am a parent.)
