<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The goal of IDEASS Gateway -7 Generations is to provide support
for education from conception to age 5 years old. Research shows that the first five years of
a child's life are fundamentally important because they are the
foundation that shapes children's future health, happiness, growth, development
and learning achievement at school, in the family and community, and in life in
general. 90 Percent of a child's brain develops by age 5. Incredibly it
doubles in size in the first year and keeps growing to about 80 percent of
adult size by age three and 90 percent — nearly full grown — by age
five. Recent brain research indicates that birth to age three are
the most important years in a child's development. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">IDEASS Gateway – 7 Generations focal point is a child’s
-initiated learning, as a child plays and interacts with their environment,
they construct meaning about how the world works. In essence, a child will take
charge of their own learning. </p>

<p style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The Mission of IDEASS Gateway – 7 Generations is: to serve the new generation of children with a
new education approach. As an example, IDEASS concepts and design will dovetail
Richard Dunne’s <i style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Harmony Project</i>, by focusing on the youngest learners
with a curricula integrating with Mother Earth. <span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The first phase of work will have its
focus on activities/curriculia that will be provided on exploring Mother Earth
through the following activities: ritual ceremony (seasonal and rites of
passage), dreaming and communing with nature, dramatic play, storytelling,
circle time, art, friendship games, identifying emotions, mindfulness, cooking,
art, math, sensory exploration, identifying one’s emotions, and literacy. The
goal is to have one years’ activities to provide for a full day’s program. This
way parents, teachers, caregivers will have the activities available to
use/download, providing them the opportunity to be present with children as
they explore. Each group downloading materials will provide their own supplies for
the children. Groups needing help with resources for their particular area will
be linked to organizations that can provide assistance. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Young children require a lot of activities throughout a day,
and teachers, daycare givers spend much of their time creating it or <b style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">not,</b>
rather than having time to focus on what is most important…being present to
relate to children. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Partnership bridges will be set up with indigenousness
groups around the planet to focus on their wisdom ways and rites of passage,
along with a focus and support of interfaith spirituality. I see/dream/image the
program expanding in different languages and focusing on the unique
characteristics of cultures around the world.</p>
