A Natural Curriculum from India

Those who are not looking for happiness are the most likely to find it, because those who are searching forget that the surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

For our last trip down memory lane, I would like to share one of my favorite stories of the 3,390 issues of ExchangeEveryDay - the January 18, 2013 issue:

"When I was in Singapore last year to attend the Global Leaders meeting, I had the great pleasure of visiting the exciting classrooms of Bonnie's friend, Vashima Goyal. During the visit she told me about the exciting ideas of Jinan, a radical educator working with village communities in India on nature-based programs aimed at recovering authenticity, originality in terms of aesthetic sensibility, and cognitive process.

Vashima recently forwarded the video, Children Being in the World, which gives you a window into her thinking. Be sure to watch the 'outtake' after the credits."
