Setting up a Physical Education program for your child
notes from Touch the Earth, Gently by Alan Whitehead
This valuable book is necessary reading for every homeschooling parent. Alan
goes into great detail on the role of the temperaments in Physical Education, the seven
movement types, and very specific suggestions as to what should be
taught each year and why.
He recommends seven five-week long P.E. blocks each school year, preferably
taught during the last two hours of the day Friday afternoon.
I strongly urge you not to base your P.E. program
strictly on my notes but to purchase the book, available from Bob & Nancy's Bookshop for $16.95.

from Waldorf Education: A Family Guide by Pamela J. Fenner
I look out into the world
Wherein there shines the Sun
Where glimmer all the stars,
Where lie the silent stones
The plants that live and grow
The beasts that feel and move
Where man in soul creates
A dwelling for the spirit.
I look inward to the soul
That lives within my being
The spirit of God is weaving
In sunlight and in soul-life
In heights of world without
In depths of soul within.
Spirit of God to thee
I turn myself in seeking
That strength and grace and skill
For learning and for work
May live and grow in me.
Rudolf Steiner
