EP209: Welcome to a deep dive into the science of reading and Waldorf education. On this episode of the podcast, Jean is joined by her assistant Sarah to share with you new insights about the literacy journey through the holistic lens of Waldorf education.
Waldorf education, since its founding in 1919, has evolved significantly. And homeschoolers are in a unique position to weave together “responsible innovation” in the Waldorf movement with new insights and research about human brain development.
Jean and Sarah discuss all things literacy ~ from oral language development to content knowledge, from neural pathways to simple strategies for teaching.
This is a rich discussion! Listen, take notes, and dig into the resources and links mentioned.
