What is Montessori?
Each child works as long as needed during extended periods of uninterrupted time. The teacher is present to work as a consultant and facilitator.
The children work on projects, and use the teacher as a consultant to help them reach their own goals.
The children reinforce their knowledge by working repeatedly on logically connected projects to satisfy their curiosity, and build their own sense of competence.
The child’s rhythm of work is accepted and encouraged.
Self-esteem rises from the child’s authentic pride in their own accomplishments.
Young children discover mistakes through feedback given by the project materials rather than by the teacher. Older children are given the opportunity to identify & correct their own mistakes.
Instead of judging and correcting, the teacher advises the use of different complimentary project materials, or represents a material from a different angle.
