Those things that occur in a haphazard fashion are simply due to sloppiness. Sloppiness has entered our work in that we have moved in the direction of doing things more easily. It is important that we take into account that when the children speak in chorus, although it goes well, that is no proof that they can do it individually, since the group spirit also participates. We need to work both ways. Always keep connected to the material so that your words are directly connected with the subject. When we spoke, I noticed that it is good to connect the learning of poems with certain figures of speech in order to make them conventions. If you have done three or four such poems, then you can return to improve the accent. We have already discussed all of these things. The way you are teaching poems now has led to a kind of sloppiness. That is partially because the foreign languages are taking a back seat. They are in a secondary position and the teachers are tired. The other problem is that many seek to avoid proper preparation. You prepare for other things. That is fine if all you want is something mechanical.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Thirty-Fourth Meeting","site_heading":null,"date":"1922-06-21","location":null,"word_count":213,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/300b/1922-06-21/p035","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Ruth Pusch and Gertrude Teutsch","identified_edition":"AP1998","book_title":"Faculty Meetings with Rudolf Steiner I","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA300b/English/AP1998/19220621d01.html","evidence":"lecture_list_row","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.

Das, was etwas als Uneinheitliches aufgetreten ist, das ist doch die Schlamperei. Es ist eine Schlamperei eingerissen, indem man sich von selbst hinentwickelt hat zu einer Art, wie es leichter zu machen ist. Das, worauf es ankommt, ist, dass man berücksichtigt, wenn die Kinder im Chor sprechen, so ist es sehr gut, aber es ist noch kein Beweis, dass die Kinder es [einzeln] beherrschen, weil da ein Gruppengeist auftritt. Nach beiden Seiten muss gewirkt werden. Immer an die Sache anknüpfen, sodass direkt das Wort an die Sache anknüpft. Als wir gesprochen haben, hatte ich bemerkt, dass, um stereotyp zu machen gewisse Aussprachewendungen, es gut ist, an das Lernen von Gedichten anzuknüpfen. Zu diesem Zweck haben [wir das], um an ein solches Gedicht anzuknüpfen. Wenn man zwei, drei, vier solche Gedichte hat, kann man wiederum, um manches an der Aussprache zu pflegen, darauf zurückkommen. Die Dinge sind alle einmal besprochen worden. [Das Gedichte-Lernen] hat zu einer Art von Schlamperei geführt. Das liegt daran, dass auf der einen Seite der Sprachunterricht wirklich bei uns an zweiter Stelle steht, weil er nebenher gepflegt werden muss. Da sind die Lehrer schon ermüdet. Und das andere ist, dass halt doch, gerade mit Rücksicht darauf, mancher der Vorbereitung zu entkommen versucht. Man bereitet sich vor für das andere. Da ist es ganz gut, wenn man an etwas Stereotypes sich anranken kann.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":233,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/300b/1922-06-21/p035"}],"english":["GA 300b/1922-06-21/p035"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":233,"en_words":213,"ratio":0.91,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.98,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":3304,"original_word_count":3363,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Ruth Pusch and Gertrude Teutsch","identified_edition":"AP1998","book_title":"Faculty Meetings with Rudolf Steiner I","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA300b/English/AP1998/19220621d01.html","evidence":"lecture_list_row","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
