Product Description
From the Christopherus Resources Website:
The Christopherus Waldorf Curriculum Overview for Homeschoolers is for those who wish to adapt the Waldorf School curriculum and/or indications arising out of anthroposophy to their own unique homeschooling situation. It is for those familiar with Waldorf education as well as those who are completely new. It is our hope that any homeschooler, not just those who ally or identify themselves with Waldorf education, will find this book of use. The book's focus is on First through Eighth Grade.
The Overview is just that - an overview of Waldorf education, written by a homeschooler for homeschoolers.
This is a practical book and parents will find help on questions ranging from how to make a schedule to working with multi-age children and from parental self-education to designing a language arts program.
Suggestions as to how one might use non-Waldorf resources but stay true to one's educational ideals will also be a feature throughout the book. Hundreds of books and other resources, both Waldorf and non-Waldorf, are reviewed. Homeschoolers will find lists of great read-alouds, books for Main Lesson preparation, suggested source material for students and books explaining different aspects of Waldorf pedagogy.
