Color in the Waldorf School: Van James

"Color is the emotional life of the natural world and if we can get beyond just looking at it as though it were mere gradations of gray and truly experience the wonderful visual sensations all around us that we call color we would then be intimately engaged with this living being, long referred to as Mother Nature, and more recently as Gaia—the living planet."

Simplicity Parenting and Waldorf Education: Kim Payne

"You could say that for us as modern human beings, the only thing that we have in common is that we have nothing in common. The social forms that supported us in the past have died away and we are left with this “existential after-image”, which can leave us feeling lonely and disoriented. By creating new and commonly agreed upon social forms we can move ahead. The conversation to get there helps us move up to the transcendent or ethical individual. How we handle individualism is a key question for all of us. The challenge for a teacher now is how to be a creative human being and how to stay true to oneself, while welcoming the process that leads us towards commonly agreed social forms." More »

"Young people are, by nature, Anthroposophists": Orland Bishop

"Anthroposophy is something we apply in everyday life. If it cannot be applied to daily living, then something is wrong, or at least does not match the intention with which Anthroposophy was brought. When I speak of the everyday, I mean that we shouldn’t separate ourselves from the time in which we are living, from the culture in which we are living, or the problems which exist today. We should work on healing and transforming from within." More »

School Profile: Camphill Special School in Pennsylvania

"We use a “hands-on” approach to the Waldorf curriculum in all the subjects which are taught in a very experiential way. Our students do everything they would do at any other Waldorf school. They study chemistry, astronomy, take field trips to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and much more. Parents always are surprised at the depth and breadth of their children’s education here." More »
