SUMMARY:Planning and Creating a Mixed-Age Waldorf Grade School: Methods and Strategies for Sustainability and Success
DESCRIPTION:A pedagogical leadership workshop for school directors/administrators\, faculty chairs\, teachers\, and board members interested in exploring the intentionality and the process of combining grades \nWith facilitator Jody Spanglet of Ashwood Waldorf School \n  \nDescription\nWhile a departure from typical Waldorf convention\, mixed-age classrooms are a growing reality in many Waldorf schools today. Combining grades can strengthen a school and its pedagogy—and benefit students—by \n\nHelping a school maintain a healthy student population\nRequiring innovation and fresh thinking on the part of the teacher and the school\nCreating class sizes that allow for a favorable social mix and opportunities for group work\nProviding older students in need of remedial work opportunities to strengthen their skills\nProviding capable younger students exposure to more challenging skills classes\nProviding multi-age experiences that allow younger and older students to develop deep and lasting relationships\n\n  \nJody Spanglet of Ashwood Waldorf School has seen the advantages students and schools realize when schools intentionally combine grades. In Planning and Creating a Mixed-Age Waldorf Grade School: Methods and Strategies for Sustainability and Success we will explore mixed-age Waldorf grade schools from a strategic planning and governance lens. Through presentation\, discussion\, and sharing\, our focus will be on \n\n\nThe culture of your school: Does it support or undermine your multi-age classroom? \n\n\nHow to create and communicate a predictable and transparent strategic plan incorporating the multi-age model \n\n\nHow to manage expectations (for parents and others) \n\n\nHow to staff a mixed-age classroom and provide professional development for teachers as needed \n\n\nHow to conceive of and successfully work with a developmentally-based curriculum in a mixed-age classroom \n\n\nHow to evaluate the progress and outcome of combining grades \n\n\n  \nYou will leave with a newfound appreciation of the benefits that can result when combining Waldorf grades\, and the knowledge of how to plan\, create\, and sustain a mixed-age grade school. \n  \nFacilitator  \nJody Spanglet has been director of Rockport\, Maine’s Ashwood Waldorf School since 2005. Previously she was a  grades 1-8 and 5-8 class teacher.  Jody started her Waldorf career as after-care teacher at the Charlottesville Waldorf School when her daughter was a student there. She has since pursued 20 years of coursework in Waldorf Education and anthroposophical study at AWSNA-accredited institutions. Jody received a BA in sociology from SUNY Binghamton and her MSEd in Social Foundations of Education from the University of Virginia. \n  \nSchedule \nFriday evening\, January 24: Doors open at 6:30pm for check-in registration. Workshop begins at 7pm and runs until 8:30pm.\nSaturday\, January 25: Workshop runs 9am-5:30pm with time for breaks and lunch\n \n  \nWorkshop Cost and Meal Plan \nThe workshop cost is $295 via online registration (cost includes Saturday mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks and a $25 non-refundable registration fee).
