COMMUNITY FRIDAY, JAN. 20, 2006 – B-1 Editor: Richard Rosier, 468-3520 The Ukiah Daily Journal [email protected] History and art in the classroom -- a Waldorf approach By KATE GOULD 8th Grade Teacher Students in the eighth grade at River Oak Charter School are presently exhibiting draw- ings at Ukiah Natural Foods at 721 South State St. and Local Flavor Restaurant at 210 South State St. The work is a culmination of weeks of intense study of Renaissance history last year in the seventh grade. The drawings will be on exhibit for the entire month of January. One student writes in her history journal, “Between 1200 and 1600, life in Europe went through enormous changes. A new age of think- ing and learning sprang out of the existing feu- dal system. New nations emerged, trade and wealth built up a merchant class, peasants revolted against lords and kings. Even the power of the pope in Rome was challenged. It was a time of astonishing inventions in the world of science. Printing was developed; discoveries in astronomy were made. Daring men set out to explore uncharted seas. There were exciting advances in painting, sculpture, architecture, and literature.” This is a student’s description of the period of history that became known as the Renaissance. Despite outbreaks of plague and famine, war Impersonating the original artist, they told the and peasant uprising, there was also a remark- story of their lives and times.
