Small Folk Unit Four: Children of Starlight
“Children of Starlight” is the fourth unit of The Small Folk Learning Series: an early years homeschool curriculum for children 3-5 inpsired by Waldorf, Chalotte Mason and Reggio Emillia. It integrates early math, literacy, science, and nature studies through a gentle holistic approach. This unit focuses on light and celebration during this dark time of year. As we head towards the winter solstice, we are pulled in many directions as many cultures and religions celebrate their most important holidays during this time of year.
What's Included
Along with the teacher’s guide, the following items are included with this set: Fairy Tales for Small Folk Part Four: Early Winter, Part Four of Simple Stories for Small Folk (A Collection of Songs, Short Stories and Verses for Nursery and Kindergarten), and The Printables, Props, and Playthings Pack for this unit. Each of these components and how to use them are described in more detail in the welcome letter.
How The Series is Laid Out
The Small Folk Learning Series is divided into nine learning units, including three for Autumn, three for Winter, and three for Spring. There is also an additional summer edition with optional activities and ideas. Each unit is designed to take one month. The series is designed so you can "jump in" at anytime, and do not need to start at the beignning of the school year, or do the units in order.
