“The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.”
—Rudolf Steiner
Christoph Wagner spent yesterday afternoon with our strings students, once again offering to teach an inspiring Master Class. What a treat!
Another gorgeous chalkboard drawing spotted in our 2nd grade classroom! Ms. Amey created this beautiful number wheel for her students to use as a tool to learn and practice multiplication, while engaging in the joy and beauty of math. ✨
What a beautiful evening spent together with the incredible Wagner-Kong Duo to benefit our music program! Over $2,200 was raised at today’s concert! 🎶❤️
The season of class plays has officially begun- Bravo to our 7th Graders on their wonderful performance of The Wizard of Oz! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Our 6th graders have begun their Business Math block, and their teacher, Ms. Hayward, wanted to emphasize the human element of money through this beautiful chalkboard drawing that will be prominently displayed in the classroom during their study.
The class discussed how money is just a symbol for an agreement between people, and that without the social agreement, money would be worthless. #waldorfchalkboard #waldorfchalkdrawing #waldorfeducation #6thgrade
