I have a student reading this series right now for SSR, and he's really enjoying it! We do Philosophy as a weekly Special on Tuesdays. In the Waldorf scope & sequence, Philosophy works beautifully in grade 6 and up, or can even be introduced as a bridge over the summer between grade 5 (Ancient Greece) and grade 6.
