Synopsis The Waldorf Kindergarten Snack Book by : Lisa Hildreth

"We recognize that we have moved into a new globalism: that the world is one, economically and geopolitically; and that futurists extol the possibilities opened up by the new complex of silicon-based electronic interactive networks. Yet, at the same time, our thinking about who we are and what we are capable of as human beings remains pitifully inadequate and largely determined by nineteenth-century models. Thus, all talk of 'family values,' of 'virtues,' of new forms of collaboration and cooperation tends either to miss the point for to reinforce the most regressive aspects of our technology." ("Spirituality and Social Renewal series introduction) How can we foster the development of initiatives? How can enterprises such as community projects, schools, farms, and businesses be established in the best possible ways? How can we work as equals, sharing responsibilities and encouraging one another in our development while offering the highest-quality product or service? Vision in Action is a workbook for all who are involved in social creation--collaborative actions that can influence the social environment within which we live and where our ideas and actions can make a difference. This volume is a user-friendly, hands-on guide for developing healthy small organizations--ones with soul and spirit.

Synopsis What is a Waldorf Kindergarten? by : Sharifa Oppenheimer

Research shows that three essentials are necessary for young children's learning: a broad palette of sensory experience; vigorous and fine movement in response to sensory input; and the opportunity to imitate what the child sees modelled in the environment. These activities are the backbone of the academic foundation that parents should look for in an early childhood program.This helpful book takes an in-depth look at Waldorf kindergartens, and what approach they offer. It includes chapters on a typical day in a kindergarten, handwork, human development through art, circle time, fairy tales, seasons and festivals, and much more. This collection of insightful articles by experienced early-childhood educators, published in cooperation with WECAN, brings both an overview and a deeper understanding of these essentials at work in the daily life of the Waldorf kindergarten.

Certain aspects of the system are in themselves striking and significant: it adapts to the education of normal children methods and apparatus originally used for deficients; it is based on a radical conception of liberty for the pupil; it entails a highly formal training of separate sensory, motor, and mental capacities; and it leads to rapid, easy, and substantial mastery of the elements of reading, writing, and arithmetic. - Introduction.
