LITERACY Grades 1 & 2 Final Revision THE WALDORF APPROACH TO WRITING & READING in GRADES 1 & 2 with special reference to teaching children from non-English speaking homes WRITTEN FOR THE EAST AFRICAN WALDORF TEACHER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM BY CATHERINE VAN ALPHEN 2 Open Source This series of manuals has been commissioned by GLS Zukunftsstiftung Entwicklung, to support teacher development in East Africa.

I would like to make specific mention of two colleagues at Michael Oak Waldorf School, Kenilworth, Cape Town, who have helped to develop the approaches to teaching writing and reading in the early history of the school at which I have been a teacher for many years: Marion Penfold and Sally von Holdt. I wish to appreciate the support and guidance of Peter van Alphen. A big thank you also goes to Beulah Reeler who provided books and notes that were most useful.

Adeline recognised the developmental value of Waldorf education and invited Peter van Alphen and Ann Sharfman, teacher educators with experience working in African settings in Cape Town, South Africa, to start a teacher development programme in Dar-es-Salaam. This programme was set up for teachers from Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya. After the first year, difficulties securing the funds for continuing the programme were experienced, and in 1999 the programme was relocated to Nairobi, Kenya, as a more central venue for the three countries. The Rudolf Steiner School in Mbagathi was able to secure funding for its continuation, and in the eleven years that followed an ever-increasing number of teachers from East African countries joined the programme. Our grateful thanks go to GLS Zukunftsstiftung Entwicklung (Bochum, Germany) and Freunde der Erziehungskunst Rudolf Steiners (Berlin, Germany) for their continued support of the programme from 1999. We also wish to thank Sanduko a Ndege (Vejle, Denmark), Internationaal Hulpfonds (Amsterdam, Netherlands), Acacia (Basel, Switserland) and Stichting Helias (Netherlands) for their additional support. About this Manual This manual answers the need for teachers (or student-teachers) to have notes on the modules they attend. This manual is written for Primary School teachers doing Module 3, which follows on the second module of the program in which a detailed study of Rudolf Steiner’s concept of child development was given. Details of curriculum were included, to show how it was developed out of an understanding of the development and needs of the children at each age. This manual is intended to guide teachers through the difficult task of teaching English in Grades 1 and 2. The focus has been placed on classes of non-English speakers who have to learn in English as their main language. However, the manual will also be found to be useful for teachers who have classes that are learning in the home language, but need to learn English as second language. In this case the manual can be used to give ideas for teaching English, ignoring the indications for in which Grades what has to be taught. This manual is intended to be handed out at the end of the module for revision and further study. The suggestion is that participants study together in groups in their respective schools. We trust that the material provided will be useful in Waldorf training programmes in many countries around the world. Comments and suggestions are welcomed, and can be sent to Peter van Alphen on [email protected].

To use an example of a Waldorf School in Alexandra, Johannesburg, South Africa, a teacher faces a class of children where there are up to eight different home languages. Which one does s/he choose as her medium of tuition? This is a matter that needs to be discussed between the school and the parents of the children, as the school exists to serve the needs of its community. In most cases the parents demand that their children are taught in English, as this seems the only pathway to financial security in the future. Unfortunately, this is not the best solution for the children. Research has shown that children learn best in their home language, as learning involves complex concepts that children cannot understand in a new language (not until they have learnt the language very fully). Only from about Grade 6 to 8 are they ready to learn in a different language, such as English, if they have been learning this language thoroughly in the years before. This manual seeks to make suggestions for situations in which it is not possible to learn in the home language, a situation that is widespread. It is based on the principle that the child needs to leran to speak and understand

  • The Mercurian Volume 3, No
    The Mercurian A Theatrical Translation Review Volume 3, Number 4 Editor: Adam Versényi ISSN 2160-3316 The Mercurian is named for Mercury who, if he had known it, was/is the patron god of theatrical translators, those intrepid souls possessed of eloquence, feats of skill, messengers not between the gods but between cultures, traders in images, nimble and dexterous linguistic thieves. Like the metal mercury, theatrical translators are capable of absorbing other metals, forming amalgams. As in ancient chemistry, the mercurian is one of the five elementary “principles” of which all material substances are compounded, otherwise known as “spirit”. The theatrical translator is sprightly, lively, potentially volatile, sometimes inconstant, witty, an ideal guide or conductor on the road. The Mercurian publishes translations of plays and performance pieces from any language into English. The Mercurian also welcomes theoretical pieces about theatrical translation, rants, manifestos, and position papers pertaining to translation for the theatre, as well as production histories of theatrical translations. Submissions should be sent to: Adam Versényi at [email protected] or by snail mail: Adam Versényi, Department of Dramatic Art, CB# 3230, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3230. For translations of plays or performance pieces, unless the material is in the public domain, please send proof of permission to translate from the playwright or original creator of the piece. Since one of the primary objects of The Mercurian is to move translated pieces into production, no translations of plays or performance pieces will be published unless the translator can certify that he/she has had an opportunity to hear the translation performed in either a reading or another production-oriented venue.

City Manager Henry Graper said he does not plan to replace Berry, but will instead go to a “ police commander” method where supervisory responsiblities will fall to the new police commander, while administration, financial and negoti­ ation responsiblities will be shifted to other city departments. The elimination of Berry’s position will result'in a cost savings, Graper said. Berry’s salary and fringe benefits, cost $53,057 he said, and a $30,000 annual credit will be given to the township. • Graper said contract concessions from the. Police Officers Association of Michigan (POAM) are still needed to keep costs down. The city manager and POAM president Michael Gardner met Tuesday to discuss “needs, philosophy and rhetoric” but did not reach any agreements on concessions, the city manager said. „ • The two-year agreement between the city and the township requires that the Plymouth police force remain at its current staffing level of 19 sworn officers.

  • GET REAL HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors College of Texas State Univers
    GET REAL HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors College of Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation in the Honors College by David Randolph Russell San Marcos, Texas May 2016 GET REAL by David Russell Thesis Supervisor: ________________________________________________ Alan Schaefer, M.F.A. Department of English Second Reader: ________________________________________________ Ron Haas, Ph.D. Honors College Approved: ________________________________________________ Heather C. Galloway, Ph.D. Dean, Honors College Acknowledgments I owe tremendous gratitude to everyone who helped this project come to fruition. This includes those who collaborated on the project, those who encouraged me throughout the process, and those who have ever had any influence on my perspective—may their influence shine on this album. First and foremost, I thank Professor John Hood. This thesis wouldn’t exist were it not for his impact. Four years ago—a freshman at Texas State University with no idea where to steer my academic path—I took the fateful step into Mr. Hood’s Honors screenwriting class. I finally had a direction in which I was inspired to drive my focus in college: creating. Professor Hood was the first professor that I had at Texas State who took a personal interest in me and inspired me to work harder. Through Mr. Hood’s support, I have become an Honors class junkie and have learned to value my own potential with a confidence that I wouldn’t otherwise have. I am grateful to Professor Hood for believing in me and helping me get to where I am today. Secondly, I thank Professor Alan Schaefer, who has not only amazed me with his knowledge of 1960s European cinema but has also been a fellow musician in the contemporary Austin scene with whom I’ve been able to discuss rock ’n’ roll.

  • Inspirational Songs for Vocals, Piano, and Guitar. Melody, Chords and Lyrics to Accompany the Album
    Inspirational songs for vocals, piano, and guitar. Melody, chords and lyrics to accompany the album. Joy In Our Hearts Greetings to you music lovers! Thank you so much for wanting to sing and/or play the songs on my new CD, “Joy In Our Hearts.” I am honored and blessed that you are helping me get my music out into the world! I truly believe that positive music is a healing force and that spreading positive affirmations and messages is a noble act. So whether you are singing or playing for your own enjoyment, or performing these songs to an audience, you are helping to heal the world – one song at a time. As I have said with all my other CDs and songbooks, I encourage you to make these songs or chants your own. I give you permission to change the words, alter the melody, change the key – whatever it takes for you to “own” it as your own. The chords and keys to all of this music is in the key that I sang it on the CD, but at the end of this book I have included my “Karen Drucker Handy Dandy Easy Music Method,” which will help you transpose the key to a key that works for you, help you figure out the chords, and maybe a few other tidbits you didn’t know. As you will see I have written quite a lot of these songs and chants with other New Thought artists. I would encourage you to check out their websites and find more wonderful music from each of them! Thank you again for supporting my music and I hope you enjoy these songs and chants! Musically, Karen Today I Choose Words & Music: Karen Drucker I truly believe that how we start our day is what sets the tone for the day.

  • Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992
    Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 By Felicia Angeja Viator A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair Professor Scott Saul Fall 2012 Abstract Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 by Felicia Angeja Viator Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair “Gangster Boogie” details the early development of hip-hop music in Los Angeles, a city that, in the 1980s, the international press labeled the “murder capital of the U.S.” The rap music most associated with the region, coined “gangsta rap,” has been regarded by scholars, cultural critics, and audiences alike as a tabloid distortion of East Coast hip-hop. The dissertation shows that this uniquely provocative genre of hip-hop was forged by Los Angeles area youth as a tool for challenging civic authorities, asserting regional pride, and exploiting the nation’s growing fascination with the ghetto underworld. Those who fashioned themselves “gangsta rappers” harnessed what was markedly difficult about life in black Los Angeles from the early 1970s through the Reagan Era––rising unemployment, project living, crime, violence, drugs, gangs, and the ever-increasing problem of police harassment––to create what would become the benchmark for contemporary hip-hop music. My central argument is that this music, because of the social, political, and economic circumstances from which it emerged, became a vehicle for underclass empowerment during the Reagan Era.
