Description …In it, you will find the most creative, energetic, enthusiastic, wise and do-able lesson plan suggestions for each and every letter! the author suggests a story for each letter that relates to the images in LMNOP; he goes on to suggest a delightful list of activities that build a variety of skills; and then explains how to draw a main lesson book figure for each letter, one that captures the heart of the picture in LMNOP but keeps it simple enough for a child to follow successfully. As a manual for LMNOP, Working with LMNOP is exactly what any parent or teacher would want; as an example of what lessons in a Waldorf school can really be all about, it is sheer brilliance. This book is so good and so useful that in itself it is a seed for the future, well beyond just teaching the alphabet and reading. Thank you, Howard Schrager! Recommended without reserve! — Waldorf Books Working With LMNOP is a companion manual to LMNOP and All the Letters A to Z. In it, a cultural context is developed, out of which children may receive a grounding in language through poems, stories, song, drama, movement, drawing, and a whole range of artistic activities. “Academics” are not shunned, but are brought within the circuit of this ‘imaginative field’. Howard has produced what is nothing less than one of the best curriculum guides I’ve ever seen: Working with LMNOP (and All the Letters)
