Science in the Waldorf School: Grades 4 - 8
The sciences represented in this presentation include:
Zoology, Botany, Geology, Astronomy, Physiology, Anatomy, Meteorology,
Physics, Chemistry, History of Science, and Geometry in Nature. Although
there are excellent books on a number of the individual sciences taught in
the Waldorf setting, this is the first attempt, anywhere, to present all
of the sciences in one place, and to reveal their deep and artistic
interrelationship. This CD will be of great value to prospective parents
and veteran parents alike, and a boon to teachers researching the various
scientific subjects that they will teach in the grade school years.
Over 230 pages from main lesson books, accompanied by thousands of words
of explanation and commentary by Eugene Schwartz, appear in vivid color on
170 PowerPoint "slides." To learn more about Eugene,
