The teaching method is based on a balance of intellectual, practical and artistic teaching. When lessons are being taught, the teacher teaches everyone in one go and then there’s a mixture of whole class work, group discussion and individual work on a subject. ]]> 2020-09-23 10:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771481192 Grace_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771482271 Rudolph Steiner developed a spiritual movement that he called anthroposophy which is based on the idea that a child’s moral, spiritual and creative sides need as much attention as their intellect ]]> 2020-09-23 10:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771482271 Katie_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771486568 Physical development is also important in his schools and they use a form of dance called eurythmy to promote the children’s development.]]> 2020-09-23 10:21:44 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771486568 Katie_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771493319 Steiner also thought colour was important with helping a child’s imagination skills.

Children also have the time to free play where they can be inside or outside. This is similar to how current nurseries set their days as most children play with activities that teachers have set out to learn from. At breaks and lunches children can also play freely outside. ]]> 2020-09-23 10:41:30 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771514428 Grace_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771516609 2020-09-23 10:42:44 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771516609 Katie_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771518949 Snack time is prepared by the adults and the children share together around a table, the experience is relaxed and social. This is similar to current nursery experience as at my placement the children sit in a circle on the carpet and choose what fruit and drink they want. At snack time the children also talk with their friends so it helps to promote their social skills and development. ]]> 2020-09-23 10:44:19 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771518949 Katie_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771520652 Keira, Grace & Katie x]]> 2020-09-23 10:45:17 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771520652 Grace_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771524939 Steiner was born on February 1861 and he died on 30th March 1925 ]]> 2020-09-23 10:47:52 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771524939 Grace_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771529092 2020-09-23 10:50:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771529092 Grace_2002 https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771532420 2020-09-23 10:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/Katie_2002/7rumj5h536fj2qs6/wish/771532420
