105: Parents and Teachers Working Together
Any Waldorf parent/teacher body that is experiencing communication difficulties will find this lecture to be practical and insightful. Drawing on his understanding of the demands of the “Age of Michael,” Eugene examines the critical differences between parenting and teaching, and how these distinctions can lead to unrealistic expectations and misunderstandings. With characteristic candor and refreshing frankness, Eugene provides a pragmatic foundation for the Waldorf community of parents and teachers.

204: Waldorf Home Companion, Grades 1 & 2
Waldorf schools are often poor at communicating to parents exactly what a child has learned in a given grade. Although end-of-year reports convey what the teacher has TAUGHT to the class, they do not always communicate what any given child has LEARNED. In response to this dilemma, Eugene Schwartz gave three lectures for parents to give them a clear picture about methods and goals in grades 1 - 5. These are an invaluable guide to parents -- and teachers!

112: Feminine and Masculine Forces in Waldorf Education
Waldorf schools were among the first coeducational schools in Europe, and they are conscientious about providing an education that addresses the needs of boys and girls alike. Eugene points out, however, that the needs of both genders are not met at every moment, and that the balance of feminine and masculine forces occurs over the entire span (14 years or more) of a Waldorf student's education. This is a provocative look at the Waldorf method.

108: Working with Difficult Children
There are growing numbers of "difficult children" in all schools, and Waldorf schools are no exception. This lecture explores just what it is that makes a child difficult to teach or to manage, and contends that a classroom problem usually carries the seeds of its own solution. Eugene also explores the teacher's role in this dynamic.
