Community Bulletin Board - Notes for 1st Grade

Community Bulletin Board is a unique feature at Waldorf Curriculum where people can make notes about things they would like to remember for the future. If you like the idea of never losing your teaching ideas again, submit them to the website and we'll keep track of them for you! (I can't even count the number of teaching notebooks and small pieces of paper I have lost -- the site is much more manageable). Simply join our Group; if you're already a Waldorf Curriculum member, contact me to submit your ideas.
