Description

 


You are bidding on A Journey Through Time in Verse and Rhyme Poems collected by Heather Thomas and Rise Up Singing The Group Singing Songbook. Great books for the Waldorf family.


A Journey Through Time in Verse and Rhyme: hardcover:


This is an invaluable collection of poetry for use by teachers at every stage of school life from primary to mid-teens. The poems are arranged by age of the child from six to fourteen, and provide support for the subject matter of lessons, from botany and physics to history and astronomy. They encompass a wide variety of moods from gratitude and wonder at the natural world to the courage and heroism of individuals pitted against the odds, and range from ancient Egypt to modern times. Works by well-known poets - Shakespeare, Blake, Wordsworth, Browning - are found together with the refreshingly unfamiliar. Sections on alliterative verse, riddles, tongue-twisters, action verses and the seasons of the year provide a stimulus for practical activities in the classroom. Also included are meditative verses for teachers to help them deepen their understanding of the children in their care. A resource book to treasure, it will awaken a love of poetry in both young and old.


Rise Up Singing: spiral bound:


Lyrics and guitar chords for nearly 1,200 songs are arranged in a compact, easy-to-use format in this comprehensive collection. Folk revival favorites; Broadway show tunes; Beatles songs; hymns, spirituals, and gospel standards; songs about peace, freedom, labor, and the environment; and chanteys are among the songs included. This revised and retypeset version of the enormously popular group singing songbook makes this essential resource easier to read and use than ever before.
