EP197: Looking for tips and strategies to transform homeschooling your fourth grader into an inspiring and manageable journey? Welcome to this episode of the Art of Homeschooling podcast, where we uncover the secrets of homeschooling fourth graders with a Waldorf-inspired curriculum. This unique stage of learning, often described as a year of "fire and ice," beautifully balances the child's growing awareness of both their inner and outer worlds. In this episode, we highlight how elements of the curriculum like Norse myths, zoology, fractions, and local geography can help children understand conflict, confrontation, and their place in the world.
