What's Included?
Picking up where we left off in Grade Two, this course reviews the secondary colors and moves further into adding form to your painting lessons!
OVER 35 videos that cover a year's worth of painting lessons for your child.
The lessons are designed to pair with themes from the 3rd grade year: Creation, shelters, farming, as well as some that are seasonal.
Discussions for adults on:
creating rhythm in the lessons
opening and closing the lessons
how to talk about a child’s work with them
how to model painting for your child
troubleshooting common problems that may come up
“We have loved this course - I have appreciated all of the insight into color as well as the quick response to questions posted by those enrolled in the class. The classes available through Waldorfish are gems.”

On the day you register you will receive access to all the lessons, including:
6 review and “warm-up” lessons to ease your child back into the rhythm of painting lessons.
13 creation themed lessons that you can weave into whichever umbrella curriculum you’re using. Our approach to this topic is secular, however, the lessons will work with whichever lens you're looking at creation through.

A list of book/story recommendations (for those starting from scratch and not using an umbrella curriculum.)

The course is designed for parents and/or children to watch and work with.

Your Guide:
Amanda Ziadeh Mercer is a dynamic Waldorf Teacher! She has had the pleasure of working with children in varying stages of development, ranging from infants in Parent-Child programs to the more mature students of the eighth grade. This wide range of experiences has gifted her a full picture of the developmental stages of childhood.
Amanda's love for art was reawakened during her Waldorf Teacher Training at Rudolf Steiner College in Fair Oaks, California. As part of the training, the students were deeply immersed in the arts, an incredibly moving experience. While it was a powerful experience to get to know more of herself through her own art practices, the experiences Amanda has had while working with the children are even more powerful.
By guiding the painting lessons, modeling classes, main lesson book compositions, handwriting, etc., she can see a more complete picture of each individual child--a piece of them she would never know if not for the arts. It is this revelation that fuels her passion for joining the Waldorfish Community!

“Colour speaks. Its universal language passes over all boundaries of race or nation, understood by everyone to some degree, if not by the head, then by the heart. It speaks to the unlearned no less than the learned. Children understand and respond to it immediately.”
