Waldorf Sixth Grade: Nurturing the Developing Adolescent

Waldorf sixth grade marks a significant transition as students stand at the threshold of adolescence, developing new cognitive capacities and a burgeoning sense of self. This carefully designed curriculum focuses on grounding students in the physical world while nurturing their emerging critical thinking and social awareness.

Here's what makes the Waldorf sixth-grade experience unique:

  • Integrated Academics: Core subjects like history, geography, science, and math are presented through a holistic lens, connecting learning to the student's inner and outer experiences.
  • Emphasis on Cause and Effect: Students delve into the scientific method, geology, astronomy, and physics, exploring the laws that govern the natural world and developing observational skills.
  • Exploration of World Cultures and History: Students engage with stories of Ancient Greece and Rome, the Middle Ages, and the rise of Christianity and Islam, examining societal structures and influential individuals.
  • Developing Language Arts Skills: Students refine their writing abilities through research reports, essays, poetry, and dramatic presentations, building foundational skills for middle school success.
  • Practical Math and Geometry: The curriculum includes business math, pre-algebra concepts, and geometric constructions using tools like compasses and rulers, fostering a practical understanding of mathematical principles.
  • Arts and Movement: Music (strings or winds), handwork (sewing, woodworking), drama, Eurythmy, and physical education are integral parts of the curriculum, fostering creativity, fine motor skills, and physical development.
  • Fostering Social and Emotional Growth: The curriculum acknowledges the physical and emotional changes of puberty and encourages students to develop social skills, teamwork, and responsible technology use through programs like Cyber Civics.

Waldorf sixth grade provides a rich and balanced learning environment that helps students navigate the changes of adolescence while preparing them for the challenges of middle school and beyond.
