- I spent close to a year in India, traveling from the Himalayas in the North to Kanyakumari, the southernmost tip of the subcontinent. India’s enchanting land and culture taught me so much! - I am a certified Waldorf teacher for grades 1 through 8 with years of experience in a variety of settings. Waldorf Teacher Training prepares teachers to determine which aspects of history and mythological stories are appropriate for children at each developmental stage. -In Waldorf Education, the study of ancient civilizations is an integral part of the primary grades’ curriculum. This includes but is not limited to Ancient India, Persia, Babylonia, Greece and Egypt. Children learn about each civilization through its geography, mythology, music, art and traditional ways of life. As a multicultural teacher who has travelled extensively, I thoroughly enjoy teaching about ancient civilizations and cultures from around the world. 🌎
