The Needs of Man

The fall curriculum is about Needs of Man. It's been a long time since I actually studied Mazlov's hierarchy. Looking at it briefly- it's much more detailed than I remember. However, the real point at this age is to connect with what they know/think/believe and distinguish between needs and wants. I think it will be interesting. Especially when you look at combining that with Grace & Courtesy and the beginnings of the peace curriculum.

I do wonder though if we should do more to follow up on the Olympics. It's starting now. The need to compete. The need to have fun. It ties in nicely. I'm going to look it up and think about it more.
