Even in the case of the very youngest children we can begin to do this. For example: we draw some figure on the blackboard and indicate the beginning of a symmetrical line.Then we try to make the child realise that the figure is not complete; they must find out how to complete it. In this way\, we awaken an inner\, active urge in the child to complete something as yet unfinished.This helps them to express an absolutely right conception of something that is a reality. The teacher\, of course\, must have inventive talent but that is always a very good thing. Above all else the teacher must have mobile inventive thought.” \n\nIn A Modern Art of Education by Rudolf Steiner  \n
