I love this resource. It’s not just “open and go” (although it could be that, too). It’s laid out so thoughtfully step by step, that apart from Fabienne’s chapters and the recommended books, stories, songs, poems, etc. you pretty much need nothing else. And at such an affordable price. I had an extremely hard time finding Waldorf curricula because they are extremely expensive and hard to purchase per block or book, but not this. And you get the most authentic Waldorf experience, more than any other resource, given that it’s a diary of a Waldorf teacher with her students across the 7 years, and who’s also been a student herself. I found that it gives me a great peek into what goes on throughout the day and as such a great model I can use and learn from. Almost like going to a school! Because of that, I can pretty much adapt it to teach any topic I like, such as topics that might reflect my religion and culture more authentically that are not present in mainstream curricula. And it’s not “do this/don’t do that,” it tells you how to do things and explains why, it has pictures of work, everything. It’s literally a detailed, step-by-step diary of the day, and I found the naming of blocks “chapters” so charming, because it’s a memoir or story of a Waldorf teacher and perfectly in line with the love for stories found in this method.
All in all, so beautifully made, and with so much love. I can emulate lessons, teach them as is, or adapt very easily for other topics. I can focus on just finding supplies and materials to use with my children. It’s so charming and authentic, so easy to navigate and understand, and not overwhelming at all. You get to see what a main lesson looks like, finally. I found I was actually getting a lot of ideas going through the chapter versus when I was looking at other Waldorf guides, because I was able to see exactly what is involved with focus and application. I’m so happy it’s here, and really look forward to more of it being published soon. Thank you so much, Fabienne.
Dear May, your words express exactly what I would like my work to achieve. Thank you for this heartwarming testimonial!
