In this episode, we pull some hypotheticals from Steiner's Discussions With Teachers.  Kristi proposes these student behavior situations to Adam and he brings his substantial social intelligence to bear on the problem.  Kristi sings a bunch and Bella meows, she meows.

The play's the thing!  In this episode, we talk about how we do plays in Waldorf schools, how those differ from other schools and why we make it all so complicated.  Lots of theater people love in this episode.  Who's ready to write a play...not us.  Who didn't turn off her ringer?  Lookin' at you Kristi.  Adam has a full on potty mouth in this episode so prepare for spicy language.  Also, mid show, we get a text from Kordi that she passed her drivers permit test - but we handle is totally profesh (Yay Kordi!)

Are you Waldorf curious?  In this episode, we do a run down of whether or not Waldorf might be right for you.  We cover some territory that's very familiar, but try to put it into a kind of self-check in list.  Also, Kristi has no idea what Cocomelon is.  Mostly, we talk about Kristi's dad.

In this episode, we discuss standardized testing.  Specifically, when we administer the tests as a public Waldorf charter and what we do with the results.  Hot button topics include the Kristi's quasi conspiracy theory about BIG TEST.  Let's just say, she has big feelings.

In this episode, we tackle the four temperaments by defining characteristics, color and Winnie the Pooh characters.  Kristi and Adam diagnose each others' temperaments and it's dicey.  The studio is rechristened the Bellatrix Celeste Kilcollins Performing Arts Center and it sounds pretty good afterall.

In this episode, it's game day so we play a little game.  Kristi asks Adam to correctly pronounce and explain a few Waldorf specific terms.  Producer Bella uses her exceptional math skills and high tech equipment to tally the score.

In this episode, we discuss squatters rights and the importance of belligerence.  Okay, no, we do, but just a little bit.  Rather, we look at the similarities, differences and practical problems that both public and private Waldorf schools face.  We talk curriculum, legal perameters and, of course, eurythmy flooring.  Kristi still has a cold so she sounds funny, apologies.
