Ideal womanhood

Hey there Marcos,

I remember you saying that this year you will be teaching 1st grade. It might be fun to share some Chinese tradition based on Confucian and Daoist ideology through story telling and sharing. It would be great to ask the children to define beauty and maybe even to illustrate beauty. As they share their descriptions, you could share with them some of the basic ideologies from both schools of thought. I could see making the lesson simply focus on virtue and mindfulness and the lesson would definitely be interesting to all students.  I believe that children enjoy being able to explore and identify common threads between what is relevant in their lives and the lives of cultural neighbors.

Sharing Beauty with China!
