Whew-
Well I've been so busy! I finished my Waldorf credential but now I'm in grad school for Waldorf Education AND I've started my teaching credential through CSUMonterey. I decided I should start adding what I'm doing here and it will be my record of what I'm doing so I have something to look back on. I came upon this today:
1. Have I given the children something real and appropriate images or pictures in my storytelling or have I given them concepts/judgements?
2. Have I used the night? Has it come back differently from the children? Have I properly reviewed the lesson?
3. Has every child made at least some effort?
4. Have I translated as much as possible from the main lesson into movement?
5. Have I made the children laugh? Was there an ebb and flow, a real breathing in the lesson?
6. Have I addressed one or more of the temperaments?
7. Have I taught something new? A new skill, some knowledge or a variation on an existing theme?
