Synopsis

This book is a form drawing resource for teachers working with ages 6-10. It is designed to be used with the Steiner/Waldorf curriculum from classes one through three, although it will also be valuable to home-educating parents using the Steiner/Waldorf ethos as their base.

Creative form drawing helps children develop hand-eye co-ordination, spatial orientation, observations skills, confident movement, drawing skills and the foundations of handwriting. Originally developed by Rudolf Steiner, creative form drawing is widely used in Steiner/Waldorf schools to enable healthy child development and learning.
