Today on the sultry afternoon, right after the lunch, I was to teach a poem in class III. As most of the time, afternoon hour wasn't that pleasant and fresh in both me and my children. After a short time of line by line recitation as an exercise of the poem, I took the children out.
And in the moment of carrying out reading exercises pertaining the poem, this feeling, taking class in a heart of a nature is a key to activate ones senses towards learning especially when the lesson is related to nature, resurfaced in me. The hearts of the children are opened unconsciously to sense the nature at her true nature. Just a gush of breeze through a rustle of leaves activates both teacher and taught to learn better let alone the allure of other elements of nature. The vibrancy of nature simply reinforces learning. In nature's lap, everything is real, open and within our reach to show and inspire. Like in a classroom while teaching nature related lessons, we don't have to exhaust ourselves to create imaginary world of nature often putting children to doze. Everything is right in front of our senses. All we have to do is to pop up the caps of children's senses and everything will bubble up unceasingly.
