In Maren Jung's Fiber Arts room, the gentle click-clacking of hand crafted knitting needles is sure to put a smile on your face; afterall, it is quite the feat for first grade fine motor skills! But of course, the introduction to knitting at this young age isn't just another skill learned; it's a milestone in their educational journey.

You may have noticed that at the Waldorf School of Baltimore we have a soft spot for jump ropes. It’s a pedagogical staple at many ages and stages for reasons that go well beyond mere nostalgia or a physical exercise.

Imagine a 4 or 5 year old just being introduced to skipping rope. Their challenge often starts by simply jumping over stationary line- honing coordination and complex gross motor skills by moving rhythmically from left to right.

The power of concentration. Attention to detail. Counting stitches. Correcting mistakes. Perseverance. Pride. Waldorf Education has long known the vast value of knitting. And yet, it seems, what we needed to get the rest of the country on board with this enormously important Hand Craft, is a global pandemic and the subsequent endorsement from our former First Lady. Whatever the reason, we are here for it.

Spring at Waldorf

Spring Festival

"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Roald Dahl


Spring has arrived and with it all the bubbling joy of warmer days and new growth. It is a time of exuberance, renewed energy, and, yes, even a bit of magic.

Rocks which can write on other rocks. Cracks in seemingly impenetrable boulders. Emerald green moss thriving in an otherwise sleeping forest.

These were just a few of the keen observations which ignited imaginations and incited exciting discussions among WSB's grade one students, seen here, on their weekly nature walk this week.

Drum Roll Please....

Joy and Power

These past few weeks we have been delighted to share in the joy and power of African drumming and culture. Grades 4-8 have been on an exciting intercultural journey with Mr. Oula, an African drum and dance master who has been sharing his passion through teaching for over 30 years. Originally from the Ivory Coast, Mr. Oula incorporates a oral tradition teaching style which includes drumming, cultural background information, and dance.

Joyful education at its best.
