Elsa’s Free Rendering – A Unique Creative Process for Grades 1 & 2 (eBook

Here is a unique, multi-dimensional art process for the first- and second-grade child — one taught to me years ago by the renowned Waldorf educator Elsa Göttgens.

In this 20-page eBook (PDF), I guide you step by step through the full Free Rendering process she shared with me. Along the way, I’ve added my own notes, suggestions, and ideas that evolved from using this approach in my own classroom through the years.

This method awakens imagination, coordination, and a love of color — helping children express form, movement, and mood through simple yet profound artistic exercises.

Perfect for teachers, homeschooling parents, or anyone seeking to nurture creativity, this gentle process blends art, rhythm, and heart.

Why not try it with your children — at home or in the classroom — and see where their imagination leads?
