Overview
Class 2 is a year in which the child’s imaginative life continues to flourish while a growing awareness of human qualities and relationships begins to emerge. This module explores how the Steiner/Waldorf curriculum responds to this stage of development through stories, artistic activities, and experiential learning that nurture imagination, moral feeling, and a sense of connection to the world.
