'...reading this book made me want to get back into the classroom and there can be no higher praise for a book about teaching.'
Pie Corbett, English educational trainer, writer, author, and poet; developer of Talk for Writing. From the Introduction.
How children engage with reading and writing is a hot topic. There is no 'one size fits all' best way. However, Rudolf Steiner/Waldorf education offers a holistic, active and creative approach based on the foundation of children's rich spoken language development. The child discovers their own voice through movement, form drawing and storytelling. The magic of the alphabet is invoked in sound, story and image. Children tell stories and then write them down, which leads organically into reading.
This is Book 1 in the Waldorf Education Series. See all Waldorf Education books here.
