Waldorf Grade 2 is for the child that is 7.5 turning 8 year old child.

This child has the foundation of letters, four processes and knows the process of main lesson time. 

Bridging into learning and doing more. 

Some are reading and some are stumbling into it. There’s a desire to learn to read. It’s totally ok if they haven’t mastered reading yet. 

The gift of second grade, the bloom of reading opening. 

Behaviorally: hungriness to learn. Why am I learning this? 

Behavior shift from the beginning of second grade to the end. We expect a little more from them. The 9 year change can begin at the end of second grade. 

Curriculum, most important part about the literature. Fables, nature stories, and Saint stories. 

Fables differ from fairy tales. We never give them the moral of the story. We let them hear and feel it. Fables have the trickster.

Melisa Nielsen at Waldorf Essentials encourages you to ask yourself

"What gives me wonder?"

We first need to know what gives us wonder and then we can guide our child to continue to foster their own wonder. 

Is it ocean waves?

Hummingbirds?

Watching babies?
