The Roadmap to Literacy: A Guide to Teaching Language Arts in Waldorf Schools Grades 1 Through 3 Paperback – June 3, 2025

This book expertly answers the question: “How do I go about providing my students with an effective, comprehensive, and creative early language arts curriculum… a curriculum that will give them the foundational knowledge required to become skilled, confident readers, writers, and spellers?” The Roadmap to Literacy weaves the wisdom gained through decades of research into the science of reading with the Steiner Waldorf approach to teaching young children (Grades 1-3). The result is an all-encompassing resource that provides a “literacy roadmap” for which concepts to teach, along with the why, when, and how to teach them. The ‘how’ of the book focuses on the Heart (teaching through an image), Hand (experiencing the new concept through activities) and Head (engaging, fun practice until the concept is learned). Lesson planning, practice activities, concept stories, skills rubrics - Roadmap has it all! Read more
