Nature universal theme

Nature is the basic qualities of a anyone or thing. It is the world of all things, and the process of things interacting with one another.

Big ideas

• Nature’s cycles keep the earth healthy by repeating healing actions on a schedule.
• Humans do not understand the full extent or complexity of nature.
• Simplicity takes away the obvious distractions and focuses on the true meaning.
• It is easier to go in the direction you naturally want to go than to fight it.
• We are all affected by nature and enriched by experiencing it.

Nature key concepts

• Cycles are repeating or recurring series of events or actions, where the movement can be plotted as a circle. 
• Diversity is the fact that differences exist, that everything is not the same, and that this variety is a good thing.
• Elements are the most basic and essential components of an entity or thing which make up the structure, nature and foundational rules for that thing. 
• An inclination is a leaning of the mind or will in a certain direction, an internal preference for one thing over another.
• Natural refers to things coming from nature, and things being in their original unaltered state of being. 
• Permanence is the state of something lasting, continuing to exist in the same state without change indefinitely.
• Process means to move forward. A process is a systemized way of doing something in a specific order. 
• Semantics is the study of language and words, and how its use changes over time.
• simplicity. Simplicity is the state of being single, unmixed with other components.
