For language teachers in Steiner-Waldorf schools, it is as important to understand children at each stage of their development as it is to develop balanced and artistic language lessons.This book, designed for teachers of Spanish but including principles which could be applied to teaching any foreign language, offers support for developing lesson plans as well as encouraging teachers to discover their own artistry and gifts. The book is a treasure trove of resources from Hispanic culture, including less well-known stories and songs from specific regions such as folk tale 'El Gallo Kiriko', Nicolás Guillén's 'Los Abuelos', Mexican legends 'Los Volcanes' and a shadow play of the ballad 'Conde Olinos'. Arranged from Class 1 to Class 8, this is a comprehensive resource which has been tried and tested in the classroom.
