Grade Five marks the culmination of the Waldorf student's drawing of forms freehand; in Grade Six she will receive a compass and straightedge and work in a very different way. The drawings that you see below were all drawn freehand, with colored pencils, by a fifth grader. Please observe the near-perfection of the circles and the care and precision with which the polygons and stellar forms were constructed. No drawing instruments whatsoever were used. --Notes by Eugene Schwartz
