1. The Waldorf approach to education believes in developing the creative and
imaginative side of the student in harmony with the intellectual and cognitive.
To achieve this, Waldorf Teaching Packs make stories and drama an integral
part of the lessons and involve students through storytelling, art, simulations,
drama, craft, discussion and creation of a personal record.
2. There are Waldorf Teaching Packs (pdfs also available) for
teaching
a) Ancient Civilizations/World History
b) History of California and
c) Mathematics (Fractions and Multiplication
Tables)
3. In a Waldorf Teaching Pack you will find teacher guidelines, stories providing
an in-depth experience, information sheets presented in an interesting and stimulating
format, activity sheets, suggestions for further research, maps with related
activities, questions for discussion and assessment, dramas for class/school
performance, guidance for the student's personal record or portfolio, a variety
of review exercises and contents designed and structured for authentic assessment
