Montessori Matters

Working on Sentence Analysis- The Montessori Way
- Little desks are not in a row all facing the blackboard
- There is a great deal of open space on the floor where you see either individual children working side by side, a small group collaborating or children receiving a new lesson from a teacher
- Most of the things on the shelves are beautifully made of wooden materials that are used as manipulatives to help with abstract concepts
In a Montessori education, children have the opportunity to design their own textbook with information created with their own hand and exercises neatly written.
This is the big difference:
Traditional: someone else creates your education for you (via textbooks)
Montessori: you create your education through your own hands (via your own notebooks and Montessori materials).
You OWN your education.

Peace Pledge
I offer my support as a child born of the Great Mystery to the vision of peaceful coexistence among all other living creatures of the Earth.
I choose to see beyond all boundaries that separate people from places. I believe that peace is not the absence of conflict but the willingness to work out conflicts peacefully.
I offer my strength, my mind, my heart to this new respect-filled 21st century world. Together we celebrate our being here.
