By the end of second grade, learners will have a greater understanding of language analysis and academic language. They will be able to recognize and analyze social and emotional themes, such as kindness, courage, and generosity, as conveyed through stories of heroic characters and fables.

Learners will be able to use writing as a tool to unlock the meaning of sound-symbol relationships within words. In mathematics, students will have a solid understanding of place value and the beginning of higher level algorithms, as well as the memorization of basic facts through movement activities and a whole-to-part process.

Through direct experiences and artistic work, learners will be able to identify and appreciate the wonders of nature, and demonstrate problem-solving skills through story problems.

All our grade teachers, while being deeply inspired by Waldorf principles, bring a wealth of experience from Waldorf, Waldorf-inspired, and alternative educational settings. Their longstanding association with Waldorful Days further enriches the depth and authenticity of their teaching approach.
