Waldorf Math: A Uniquely Engaging Curriculum

Cape Ann Waldorf School, CAWS, Beverly MA Independent School. Pre-K to 8 grade.

How many times have you heard someone say, "I'm not a math person"? At Cape Ann Waldorf School, everyone is a math person. In our early childhood classrooms, students develop the foundation for math with rhythmic activity, movement, games, real work, and lots of play. From early childhood across the grades, the Cape Ann Waldorf School math curriculum unfolds in a meaningful and coordinated way. Students explore and practice math in ways that fully engage them, through movement, artistic work, music, and practical activities. This multi-sensory, experiential approach leads to stronger understanding, better recall and eager anticipation for taking on their next challenge.

When: 
Saturday, March 15, 2014 from 9am to noon.
