Montessori Teaching Schedules
...Inspiration for your daily life at home or school
Authentic Montessori schooling uses neither schedules nor lesson plans.
The truth is so simple that no one believes it: We provide the lesson each child needs at the time they need it.
Keeping a teaching journal helps. Here is your free teaching journal.
I have a more detailed post about "Montessori schedules" here..
And some inspiration,
The morning routine is the beginning of your homeschooling day. At school, children can begin their day with indoor and outdoor work, too.
Cleaning the classroom is the most popular activity for young children.
After a brief presentation, children own the material. We do not critique them as they use it.
Everyone proceeds at their own pace.
Observe a child to discover the equipment to present now. Did it work? Write down your observations in your teaching journal. Children may prefer to learn from their siblings or peers. This is a sign that you are a great teacher…because they do not need you.
Original Montessori schools provided a garden plot for each child, along with free access to the garden during the school day.
Developing rhythms for living is key.
All parts of the curriculum are equally as important.
Children love to join us in our daily work.
A window garden in an apartment is as precious as a big garden plot.
Gaining physical skills is key to brain development.
The best way to deal with “imposter syndrome” is to never let it start.
Free your inner child as your own children and students embark upon their Montessori voyages!
