DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"The primary task of a Waldorf teacher is to understand the human being in body, soul, and spirit. From this understanding will grow the approach, the curriculum, and the methods of an education capable of addressing the whole child." --Roberto Trostli Waldorf education, an established and growing independent school movement, continues to be shaped and inspired by Rudolf Steiner's numerous lectures on education. In Rhythms of Learning, key lectures on children and education have been thoughtfully chosen from the vast amount of material by Steiner and presented in a context that makes them approachable and accessible. In his many discussions and lectures, Steiner shared his vision of an education that considers the spirit, soul, and physiology in children as they grow. Roberto Trostli, an experienced Waldorf teacher, has selected the works that best illustrate the fundamentals of this unique approach. In each chapter, Trostli explains Steiner's concepts and describes how they work in the contemporary Waldorf classroom. We learn how the teacher-child relationship and the Waldorf school curriculum changes as the students progress from kindergarten through high-school. This book will serve as an excellent resource for parents who want to understand how their child is learning. Parents will be better prepared to discuss their child's education with teachers, and teachers will find it a valuable reference source and communication tool.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →What does a healthy, successful school look like? Is it all about measurable outcomes, test scores, and pass/fail grades set by the government? Can learning be quantified in short-term measurements or does real learning take years to manifest in a career or biography? All seem to agree that a healthy school is also a community and that community depends on the quality of relationships—chiefly the relationships among students, teachers, and parents. This book features a comprehensive examination of the parent–teacher relationship in all its dimensions, from parent evenings and conferences to communication, conflict, and the life-cycle of parent involvement in their school. In between the chapters on practical advice are sections that consider the issues from a deeper, spiritual dimension. This book is intended to stimulate conversation, self-reflection, and relational practices that awaken community life in and around our schools.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Despite the development of modern educational theories and the ingenious methods devised to hold a child's attention today, education – and even childhood – appear to be facing something of a crisis. The fact that boredom – or even extreme violence – can be spoken of in connection with little children is a sad reflection on our times. Are children in danger of losing the natural human fantasy that is the source of all creative imagination in later life? Are we in danger indeed of losing childhood altogether? Although first published in 1940, Cecil Harwood's little book has become a classic introduction to the perennial themes of child development and growth, and to the basic principles of Rudolf Steiner/Waldorf education. Cecil Harwood (1898 – 1975) was one of the founding members of the first Waldorf school in the English-speaking world, and worked for many years as a Steiner teacher. His sensitive awareness and respect for the innate wisdom of childhood shine through this book. As he demonstrates, a sympathetic and loving picture of this natural childhood wisdom is a prerequisite of any good educational endeavour.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A picture book for all ages from painter Thomas Locker! "Most of all, he thanked the wilderness for teaching him to see in a new way." In Blue Mountains is about the love of nature and the importance of beauty. It tells the story of an artist who sets out to explore wilderness and discovers a new way of seeing. Bewildered at first by the profusion of nature -- There are so many leaves, he could never paint them all! -- Gradually, he learns to see its wholeness and to trust his feelings. As he does so, he embarks on an adventure of learning: about light and shadow, the way color changes through the day, and how looking at nature leads to a new understanding of himself and the world. This illuminated story is set in America's first wilderness, the Kaaterskill Clove in Upstate New York, made famous by the Hudson River School of painters -- many of whose pictures are reflected in this book. Thomas Locker's In Blue Mountains is a personal, deeply moving testament to the power of beauty and art to nurture our children's natural love of the world. Indeed, it can inspire childlike wonder in people of all ages. In Blue Mountains is a wonder-filled book that makes a great gift for both children and adults. It contains 13 full-page, color reproductions of the artist's paintings of Kaaterskill Clove and the beautiful, blue Catskill Mountains.
