First Five Day Week=Fabulous
Reminder from Mr. Duffek
Parent Committee Meeting
Montessori Method of the Week
Why practical life in the Montessori?
The purpose and aim of Practical Life is to help the child gain control in the coordination of his movement, and help the child to gain independence and adapt to his society. It is therefore important to “Teach teaching, not correcting” (Montessori) in order to allow the child to be a fully functional member in his own society. Practical Life Exercises also aid the growth and development of the child’s intellect and concentration and will in turn also help the child develop an orderly way of thinking.
Much of our practical life experiences will be taught through food prep exercises in the kitchen.
