MAIN LESSON BOOKS - WHAT ARE THEY?

What is a Main Lesson Book, and how is it different from the other books, such as composition books, practice books and exercise books?

A Main Lesson Book (MLB) from the Waldorf perspective documents a child's thinking and understanding of concepts being taught in a deeply creative way.

Why creative? Because when attaching emotion to understanding, the learning is not only embedded deeper into the brain, but it's a way of teaching this understanding to others. And teaching to others is one of the best ways to deepen one’s own understanding.

WHAT IS A MAIN LESSON BOOK NOT FOR?

 A MLB is NOT for practice problems or exercises. It is NOT for rough drafts and lots of written feedback. That is what all the other books and booklets are for 🙂.
