Creative Process

“If you would understand anything, observe its beginning and its development.”

-Aristotle-

I don’t know how it happens, but everything makes more sense inside creating the patterns of this dragonfly’s wings. A perfect pause. A soft reflection. A means to create validation inside every intention. Nature. Beautiful. Balanced.

Nature study always leads me into new thoughts and offers a way to connect with my family and friends on an intellectual and spiritual level. Thank you for letting me share my creative process with you. Grateful for your interest and support.

“The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn.”

-Marcus Tullius Cicero-

When a student feels understood and valued they become motivated to engage in the learning process, yielding a natural increase in cooperating.

The Emotional Advantage offers a means to study who you are while learning how to understand others embedded in the knowledge of nature-based sciences.

Today’s demonstrated themes were Jovial and Anxious!

Stories, illustrations, and learning exercises inside the curriculum!

Thank you for participating in the bi-weekly pre-release of The Emotional Advantage (First Edition) Volume Two (All Ages)! Learn more inside!

Educational Standards

“Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.”

-Plato-

. . . It’s not children that have so much to learn from adults, it’s us that have so much to learn from children. . .

Thank you for the feedback. Interested in the K-5 Educational Standards met through using The Emotional Advantage?

There’s an Educational Rubric and updated Q and A on my blog’s home page. Link in bio.
