ウォルドルフのノームとエルフの図書館クラス

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 Waldorf librarian and teacher for six years, I love to share stories and tales with young children around the world here on Outschool!
