EP201: Curious about how to make homeschooling fifth graders a harmonious blend of imagination and academics? Join us on the Art of Homeschooling podcast, where we reveal the wonder of the Waldorf curriculum specially tailored for your 10 to 11-year-olds' "golden year." Discover how to nurture independent learning through main lesson blocks and engaging activities like the Greek pentathlon. Hear about the main subjects brought at this age such as ancient cultures, botany, geography, and freehand geometric drawing. Plus, get insights on incorporating mindfulness practices and recommended resources like the Waldorfish botany course.
Don't forget to check out our Ages and Stages guide. You'll find links to all the suggested resources in the Show Notes linked below. And thanks for welcoming us along on your homeschooling journey!
