Tucson Waldorf School provides age-appropriate content
that nourishes the healthy growth of the child. Mathematics,
languages, literature & history, science & geography, music,
handwork, gardening, and woodwork are subjects students learn about
through an experiential approach. Through each experience in the
Waldorf classroom, students cultivate and expand their
intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual capacities. These
capacities lead them to becoming individuals who are rooted in
their strengths while remaining open and curious to the infinite
possibilities of this life.
In Waldorf education, the teacher progresses with a given group
of students from first to eighth grade. Every morning teachers
greet students with a handshake and make eye contact before the
students enter the classroom in order to establish a connection
each new day. By carrying a class through the grades, class
teachers look back on all his or her students` previous learning
experiences and build step by step on this foundation to endow his
or her teaching with real unity. Primary school age children, who
are very sensitive to readjustments and changes, are given the
security of knowing one personality and method intimately and
thoroughly.
