In the Classroom

Guest teacher from the Society for Creative Anachronism

Last week Tucson Waldorf School’s Grade 5 traveled to Flagstaff to compete in the regional Pentathlon. This event is the culmination of Grade 5′s study of ancient civilizations – specifically Greece in its Golden Age. Sorted into ancient Greek city-states, they spend two days performing their personal best in discus, javelin, long jump and more. They performed with tremendous strength and grace.
