In this episode of A Waldorf Journey, I take a deep dive into one of the most inspiring aspects of Waldorf education: the transition from teaching mythology to history through the grades.
Join me as I explore how this unique approach supports child development, nurturing imagination in the younger grades and fostering analytical thinking in later years. From fairy tales in first grade to revolutions in eighth, I discuss the guiding principles behind this thoughtful curriculum, share insights from my classroom experience, and offer tips for teaching history through engaging biographies and storytelling.
🌟 Learn how storytelling fuels imagination and why it’s a cornerstone of the Waldorf method.
