Teachers and parents know that each child is a tiny miracle, a complex
puzzle needing to be solved. This book is packed with insights from
experienced teachers in Waldorf schools describing methods that a teacher
can employ to help an individual child while helping an entire class.
Child observation, movement exercises, eye-hand coordination, effective
tracking of the difficulties a child might have, temperaments, artistic work,
moveable classrooms, disciplinary techniques, understanding the place of
sleep, hands-on activities, and much, much more are all packed into this
one book. Elizabeth Auer, the editor, has gathered 30 chapters from almost
as many teachers to instruct us on approaches that can unlock the mystery
presented by every child we teach. Her own years of experience in remedial
ideas for support of every student along with a whole class makes the selection
of topics and teachers especially incisive and complete. Parents, too, can use the
book to help a child at home with learning challenges.
