S1 EP6 - Fifth Grade

On this week’s episode of Anthroposophy Today, Scott and Sarita talk about the Waldorf fifth grade classroom!

Join us for this conversation and check out our blog post (link below) to hear Scott and Sarita discuss, among other things:

The new subjects that are introduced in fifth grade
Why history and geography are taught separately and what contrasting effects they have on the children
History of Ancient India, including a study of the vedas and Bhagavad-Gita
Goethean observation
“Emotions” versus “feelings”
History of Ancient Persia, based on the literature, poems, and prayers of that time
History of Ancient Egypt: the art, hieroglyphics, stories of the gods, and a recitation in Ancient Egyptian of a prayer to Isis that the fifth graders love
The reason why history is studied in the Waldorf grade school with a focus on the literature, art, and culture of that time
History of Ancient Greece: the beauty of the Ancient Greeks and the Greek Olympics (which the children will experience by partaking in a mock Olympic games at the end of the year!)
And as a bonus, a brief digression on the subject of karma and reincarnation from an Anthroposophical standpoint: discussing the dual figure of Judah the Macabee/Judas
