We're bringing back The Denver Waldorf Podcast with a new series of discussions with School Director Kelly Molinet and Education Director Charlie Orphanides, inspired by the question, "What's Up With That?!" In this first episode, we explore the question of what's up with that- where are all of the textbooks? In Waldorf schools across the globe, you will find "reverse textbook learning" as an integral part of our curriculum - meaning that our students don't study directly from textbooks, rather they create their own main lesson books which serve as a record of the academic facts of the lesson. These main lesson books integrate art along with other creative elements to synthesize the material. In this episode, Kelly and Charlie discuss the intention behind this part of our Waldorf education.
