Class Experience

Enter the world of whimsical and magical gnomes and elves in this imaginative Waldorf library class.  We will light a story candle to begin our special time together. The stories that we read are picture books that we will see and read together on the screen share.  After we read, we will have movement time with yoga poses that allow us to become gnomes and elves.  Finally, we will have a drawing time for children to process the story artistically.  Drawings are all student-led and we will have a sharing time for students to share their expressions if they choose to.  This is a perfect class for an older Waldorf kindy or first-grade student and even a dreamy second-grade student who loves gnomes and elves!

As a librarian and rest teacher at a Waldorf School for six years, I absolutely treasure all of my moments spent with the dear kindy and first grade students.  I love that I can work with them all around the world now!   I also homeschooled my own two children using the Waldorf curriculum.
