Carl Orff Schulwerk Method

Carl Orff Schulwerk Method

We've completed our Orff Schulwerk Method open source and free-shared Education for Life resources page. These pages, like all the Education for Life pages are seeking input if anyone would like to help make this free-education program even better!
http://www.onecommunityranch.org/carl-orff-schulwerk-method/

More info:
The Carl Orff Schulwerk Method combines music, movement, drama, and speech into lessons that are similar to a child’s world of play. The Orff approach is just one of the many systems we have researched to create the Education for Life Program and this page is meant to function as an ever-expanding archive of open source, free-shared, and duplicable Carl Orff Schulwerk Method inspired ideas for evolving education. As this page continues to expand we also organize all the ideas into the primary components of the One Community Education ProgramCurriculum for LifeTeaching Strategies for LifeTeaching Tools for Life, and building The Ultimate Classroom. These components are designed to be combined to create endless “Lesson Plans for Life” purposed to grow and evolve what we feel will be the most comprehensive, effective, and diversely applicable free-education program and resource archive in the world. The One Community Foundations of Teaching, Leadership, and Communicating, combined with a collaborative Evaluation and Evolution Component (Portfolio Creation and Maintenance), help us to further grow and adapt both the program and as individuals.

One Community Tropical Atrium

One Community Tropical Atrium


This page is the One Community open source project-launch blueprinting portal for the Tropical Atrium. Our goal here is to create an aesthetically pleasing and functional multi-purpose facility that will serve as a tropical fruit demonstration project combined with multi-purpose passive recreational use that will easily invite members of the community to want to spend time in such a space. Additionally, as is the theme for the Earthbag Village (Pod 1), the cost will be inexpensive in relation to its size and we will be able to adapt this space to the unknown inconsistencies of varying degrees of heat, cold, humidity, and light, while utilizing greywater for watering of the plants.
