Waldorf Homeschooling - Waldorf Homeschooling

Waldorf education was developed by the Austria philosopher and metaphysicist Rudolf Steiner in the 1920 and is based around his views on Child development. Steiner believed that the development of children paralleled world history and the development of mankind and tailored the Waldorf school curriculum to compliment that. A good example of this aspect of Waldorf education can be seen in the Waldorf social studies curriculum:

Grades K-1 - Fairytales and folktales
Grade 2 - Fables and stories of the saints
Grade 3 - Old testament of the bible stories
Grade 4 - Norse & Native American legends and sagas
Grades 5 & 6 - The Indus Valley cultures, Egypt, Greece, & Rome
Grade 7 & 8 - The Middle Ages, Renaissance, Age of Enlightenment and Revolutions
High school - The modern world and their future.
