What does Waldorf Education look like as it interacts with modalities such as anti-bias education, culturally and historically responsive education, decolonizing education, and the complex world of state curriculum standards?
In response to many requests and to support teachers in their daily classroom work, Alma Partners is offering a Community Class Series in 2026-27 in which teachers will share about the concrete, practical steps they are taking to contextualize their pedagogy, curriculum, and classroom for the young people in their care. Through this series, we will explore what contextualizing means, and discuss the delicate and skillful art of weaving traditional Waldorf education with the needs of today’s children. Guests with expertise working with different age groups will present their work, share resources, and engage directly with questions from participants. We will also hold additional space for brainstorming, with facilitation provided by Alma Partners.
Our grades-focused webinar on January 25th, 2027 will feature Angela Zhaawanongkwe Lindstrom.
Fee: Sliding scale, $25-100 per person.
Link will be shared after you register.
Note: Pricing is per person. Our sliding-scale pricing is intended to make our courses accessible to as many people as possible. Please pay the most you are able to afford, in order to keep lower-price spots open for those who need them. If you are in a double-income family or household, have savings or inherited wealth, own your home, and/or can afford vacations, please consider contributing at a higher tier.
*Please note: in alignment with the Alma Partners core value of Centering Relationship, we do not record our sessions! Please plan to attend live.
About Our Presenter:
Angela Zhaawanongkwe Lindstrom is a citizen of the Anishinabe (Ojibwe) and Eastern Band Cherokee Nations who grew up in the woods of Ohio, and spent many summers on the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina. Upon graduating from Brigham Young University, Angela worked in journalism and public relations before finding her true passion: teaching. After teaching Native American Studies at the University of Cincinnati for seven years, she became a mother and discovered Waldorf Education. Soon afterwards, she became certified as an Early Childhood and Therapeutic Waldorf teacher, and then completed her M.Ed. at Antioch University-New England in elementary education. Angela has worked in Waldorf Education for nearly 30 years. She has organized and hosted the "Pacific Northwest Regional Waldorf Schools Coast Salish Cultural Sharing," an annual event for 4th graders, for over two decades. Through building relationships with Coast Salish Elders, teachers and placing Land as Pedagogy, Angela has seen the event transform into an authentic and profound learning experience for all participants. Angela’s current passion is bringing Land as Pedagogy into the Waldorf curriculum and to students, teachers, and schools.
