[Dialogue] 4 Archive Qs - Pre-School Curriculum

[Paula Philbrook]

*"The Original Imaginal Education Curriculum" might be considered a trick
question:*

*" Imaginal education is a whole-person approach to life and learning that
can be applied to any subject matter+*
*by Ronnie Seagren    *http://www.context.org/ICLIB/IC18/Seagren.htm

So if you are asking about the Preschool Curriculum, that goes at least or
64/65. .  It seemed like Lela Jahn was the director.   I know Sarah Buss was
working on curriculum some of that year because I would sit for Elizabeth.
I think Nancy Loudermilk maybe Judy Fishel, were also on the weekend
curriculum writing sessions.

*Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough,
and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to
clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger
into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow*.
