Awakening

If you have something that leads you to confusion about the basic question we can gather as the development of thinking in adolescence? We can answer this question as the force of will to understand the learning living on everyone. It is particularly between birth and age seven, but ongoing through age fourteen and beyond. I read about someone’s journal who attended the lecture of Gary Ward on the development of thinking adolescence put on by the Sunrise Waldorf Parent Association. The lecture revolve to the picture of Waldorf child development in high school but it really emphasized the work that we do as parents from birth on and how the early childhood and grades education our children are receiving at Sunrise prepare the child for the thinking life.

As an adolescence, they are on the stage of thinking and asking what they mission in this world, while answering that question, they are able to development their own skills with their own way of thinking. At their lecture, the speaker presented a picture of development weaving together the picture of development presented by Rudolf Steiner’s developmental stages.

They want to emphasize that learning is innate for people, while Waldorf Education play the role to awaken the mind of children to make some question wherein they can have the developmental process on their own. They can apply the thinking realm in adolescence, by the forces that have been initiated since birth. At Waldorf School they can exercise his or her will to observe, evaluate and learn through his own will. This is the reason why Waldorf Education believes that environment plays great role in child’s development.
