Item Description
Waldorf schooling honors the tradition of apprenticeship in ninth grade—the year is spent learning how to tackle various disciplines and acquire new skills. The underlying emphasis is on the importance of observation and description. “What?” is the main question. Ninth graders live through extremes, a clash of opposites, both emotional and intellectual. The curriculum focuses on polarities: in physics, students study heat and cold; in chemistry, contraction and expansion; in history, revolutions.
Due to this the art teachers bring black and white, light and dark, to help students find the nuances of grey that lie in between. Polarities of black-and-white are pursued through linoleum block printing, introduced in ninth grade. Students sketch and draw out of imagination and perception, leading into generating an image and a composition, including the three basic types of imprint: the positive, the negative, and the line.
