Anthroposophy 101 ECourse











A song celebrating the seasons, a story about gnomes, children jumping in puddles, crafts of felted wool - a picture of Waldorf. When people are intrigued about this educational stream, they ask, "Where did this come from?" When you say Steiner and anthroposophy, most will be puzzled. Steiner? Anthropo-what? For those who are eager to learn more about this cutting edge Renaissance man, and the spiritual foundation that sparked Waldorf education, Anthroposophy 101 is for you.



















Anthroposophy 101 is a deliciously intriguing sampler of Waldorf and anthroposophy presented by Dr. Rick Tan through Little Acorn Learning. An informal and interactive format allows you to reflect on the basics of anthroposophy, while expressing your artistic nature. Dr. Tan, a Waldorf teacher, artist, musician - a Renaissance man himself, offers his personal thoughts and insights. He aims for you to find your own creative and spiritual paths.

* Human Wisdom (1 week)
* Steiner's Renaissance (1 week)

The Waldorf Way


My husband is finishing up his second week at Steiner College. He is in the teaching program that will be 5-weeks each summer for 4 summers.

I am very proud of him for going "back to school" after already having a doctoral degree. He is really enjoying the challenges, creativity and inspiration that are presented in daily lessons about philosophy, anthroposophy, curriculum, arts, eurhythmy, singing and more.

He started a blog to synthesize what he is learning: www.thewaldorfway.blogspot.com. We invite everyone to come read it, leave comments and follow the blog. I am learning so much from reading his blog each day!

Here are pictures of some of the watercoloring that he has been doing in painting class, as well as pictures of us on the gorgeous, magical campus when we go and visit Daddy during lunch (and visit the college bookstore, too, of course!). Watching Rick being inspired daily by the college is making me think about attending the handwork program in the future....Hmmm....
