A Course in Paper Sloyd for Home Schoolrooms and Educational Establishments is a complete four-year Paper Sloyd curriculum for parents and educators looking for a handicraft that is not only easy to implement but is both educative and enjoyable for the child.
This discounted bundle includes the Paper Folding, Paper Tearing, and Paper Modelling books and the Teacher's Guide.
Modeled somewhat upon Miss Mason’s own programme for Paper Sloyd in the elementary years, students will progress steadily from building simple designs, such as envelopes, hats, baskets, and flags to more complex models, such as canoes, boats, clocks, pianos, and chests of drawers.
Sloyd develops not only creativity but also concentration and coordination, building skills needed for more advanced handicrafts like woodworking and sewing.
This comprehensive course can begin as early as with pupils of around six years of age in their first year of formal schooling, but may be picked up and worked through by older students of any age who want to establish a firm foundation and working knowledge in Paper Sloyd.
Inside the Teacher’s Guide you will find:
• Paper Sloyd scope and sequence
• Detailed supply lists
• Four years worth of lesson plans
• A step-by-step walk-through of each lesson
• Skills lessons to afford students extra time in practising new skills
• Alternative Design Lessons where children can exercise their originality
• Helpful hints and pitfalls to look out for during lessons
• End of term examinations
• Assessment pages for teachers to keep track of their pupil’s progress
