Item Description
Waldorf Weekend: Foundations and Fundamentals of Waldorf Education from Early Childhood through High School
Friday, June 28, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - Sunday, June 30, 2019 @ 1:00 pm
Ever wish you could experience Waldorf Education yourself? Or learn more about what makes this education so compelling? Sunbridge Institute's Waldorf Weekend offers just that opportunity.
Our popular Waldorf Weekend workshop is designed to provide an in-depth and experiential survey of the basis and the basics of Waldorf Education. In addition to exploring the Waldorf curriculum, your workshop will include a discussion of Rudolf Steiner’s insights in human development and a look into the anthroposophical underpinnings of the Waldorf impulse. You’ll enjoy hands-on artistic activities such as music, movement, and drawing, and there’ll be plenty of time for questions and answers. Our Waldorf Weekends are a most memorable—and fun!—learning experience.
- A survey of the Waldorf curriculum and how it relates to the growing child
- An exploration of the anthroposophical ideas that serve as the underpinnings of the Waldorf impulse
- A look at Rudolf Steiner’s insights into human development
- Hands-on artistic activities common to the Waldorf experience, including drawing and eurythmy
- Opportunities to ask your most pressing questions
- A deeper understanding of and appreciation for Waldorf Education
This workshop begins Friday evening, runs all day Saturday, and concludes early Sunday afternoon.
