This series, "Mathematics for the High School," in mathematics was specifically designed with math teachers in mind. Not only are the books a useful resource for gaining familiarity with teaching approaches used in a Waldorf school, but they are also a source of inspiration – offering fresh perspectives and new insight – for course that have perhaps been taught many times. 
 
This book contains experienced teachers' suggestions for lesson blocks covering topics taught in the 10th grade in the Waldorf curriculum. 
- Sine, Cosine, and tangent 
- 10th grade trigonometry 
- Surveying in the 10th grade 
- Higher calculations 
- Logarithms and logarithmic spirals 
- Pascal's triangle and related geometry 
- Numerical relationships in music 
- The method of resection 
 
The material is not only described theoretically, but includes many examples, exercises and "hands-on" hints for the lessons. Some information about the historical background of the major themes rounds out many of the contributions.
