WHAT IS MONTESSORI
Montessori Method
The Montessori Method has a framework for both the learner and the educator. You will see flavors of it on the internet (some are 6, other 8) but they all follow the same core principles.
1. Play is work
Play is fun but we should take it very seriously as it is the way the child expresses themself.
3. Independence
Encourage exploration and teach toddlers to take responsibility for themselves, their belongings, and the environment.
5. Observation
Raising children in the Montessori philosophy means observing them carefully and noticing what they are interested in.
7. Respect
The Montessori method is about mutual respect between the child and the parent.
2. Prepared environment
The Montessori environment should also be structured and have the order. Children love order — even if it doesn’t fell that way.
4. Hands-on learning
Children learn through experience. The child is able to learn new things effortlessly and unconsciously, just by being in the right environment
6. Freedom within limits
Freedom doesn’t mean children can do whatever they want. It means we give them the opportunity to choose freely from the options we approve
