Teaching Mathematics for First and Second Grades in Waldorf Schools by Ernst Schuberth Pdf
For Waldorf teachers, math is often one of the more difficult subjects to teach. On the one hand, memories of our own schooldays can cloud our view of children's developmental needs, whereas on the other hand, Steiner's many indications do not form a cohesive structure for the math curriculum. Thus, many different ways of teaching were developed during the seventy-year history of Waldorf education. This diversity underscores the responsibility teachers carry for their lessons. This guide does not in any way intend to diminish this responsibility, but seeks to contribute to a unified view of Steiner indications for a developmentally appropriate math curriculum. Our approach may differ from some existing programs--mainly in its direct and quick beginning to math activities and its avoidance of pictures when introducing numbers to young students. There may be other differences as well.

Science Between Space and Counterspace by Nick Thomas Pdf
Rudolf Steiner discovered that, in addition to "ordinary" space, negative space, or "counterspace," also exists, leading to a more holistic worldview. Steiner suggested that it was important to understand counterspace as a necessary supplement to the conventional approach. Science between Space and Counterspace relates the phenomena of our world to both space and counterspace, which leads to a new scientific understanding. If counterspace actually exists, then the resulting interplay between counterspace and "ordinary" space must be significant. This concept is applied to gravity, liquids, gases, heat, light, chemistry, and life. Each aspect involves a separate investigation, whereas the various threads begin to interweave and become a unified whole. A new concept of time, and indications for a new approach to relativity and quantum physics begin to emerge. Note: Science between Space and Counterspace contains advanced mathematical and scientific proofs that the nonspecialist, general reader may find overly difficult.

The Teaching of Arithmetic and the Waldorf School Plan by Herman von Baravalle,Julius Knierim Pdf
This book, on the mood of the fifth, is intended for adults who have become aware of the damage done to children by an occasionally overwhelming technological and dehumanized environment and who are searching for ways to heal this damage. The novel approach outlined by musicologist Julius Knierim in this book is based on subtle observations of children's singing, especially their movements. What healthy children reveal of hidden "music" through their movements, along with what they sing, can lead adults who have remained inwardly flexible and "mobile" to an understanding of how young children experience music. Such understanding can pave the way through the various experiences of singing and listening to music, from the "calling third" (little children's first musical interval tends to be a minor third) to contemporary music.

Some information about the historical background of the major themes rounds out many of the contributions.
This thoughtful book, written by an experienced Waldorf teacher in Denmark, explores ways of making arithmetic and maths lessons active, engaging and concrete for children. Anderson concentrates on methods which use aspects of movement and drawing to make maths 'real', drawing on children's natural need for physical activity and innate curiosity.The techniques discussed here will work well for younger classes in Steiner-Waldorf schools.
