Listen "Episode 11: Alas, Poor Yorick - Santa Lucia Buns and How We Do Literacy"
Episode Synopsis
Did you know it was Kristi's birthday, Santa Lucia Day and Taylor Swift's birthday all in one week? Naturally, this leads us into a discussion of why we bring literacy instruction when we do. In this episode, we discuss the pacing and timeline for direct literacy instruction - what is it, why do we do and what questions/concerns do we often come across. Also, Adam gets on his high horse about first born privilege. Did any questions or anxiety as teacher or parent arise for you? Give us a shout by email at [email protected] and let us know. You can find us on Instagram too at waldorfsaladpod. If we can help bring insight on this at all, we would love to. Like much that we do, we have not received permission from anyone to make this podcast and will be begging forgiveness from here on out. Here's some links we reference this week: Practical Course For Teachers The Art of Education: Where Waldorf Meets Structured Literacy The Child's Changing Consciousness and Waldorf Education Lecture III
