Scout Education is a Tree of Life – עץ חיים, Ets ‘Hayim – with:

The Roots — Global Developement
Five relations form the Roots of the Tree of Life:

• my relationship with myself
  
• my relationship with my body
  
• my relationship with the others
  
• my relationship with my environment
  
• my relationship to spirituality

The Trunk — Scout Method
Eight elements form the Trunk of the Tree of Life:

• Personal Progression
• Scout Law and Promise
• Patrol System
• Symbolic Framework
• Learning by Doing
• Nature and the Outdoors 
• Community Involvement
• Youth Leading, Adult Supporting

The Branches — Activities per age range
The roots give the tree stability and nourishment. They are the solid support on which the trunk can grow. It brings nutriments from the roots to the leaves and maintains the treetop. The branches and leaves can grow and flourish in all directions.
