Happy Birthday to Maria Montessori!! 🎉🎈

August 31st would have been Dr. Montessori's 156th birthday and we are going to celebrate her all week long!! Each classroom has created a presentation about each part of the Montessori environment to display in the library. Please be sure to take some time to walk around and view the many different aspects of a Montessori classroom. Please feel free to take your children with you, but please be mindful of the materials and displays!

✨The Power of Concentration in Montessori

Maria Montessori believes that concentration is the foundation of a child’s development. She observed that when children are deeply engaged in meaningful work, they become calm, confident, and joyful learners.

“The first essential for the child’s development is concentration. The child who concentrates is immensely happy.” -Maria Montessori

By protecting uninterrupted work time and following the child’s interests, we nurture focus, independence, and a lifelong love of learning. 🌱

“The child gives us a beautiful lesson- that in order to form and maintain our intelligence, we must use our hands.” ~Maria Montessori

Reminder:
We will host our Parent Orientation on Friday, August 21st for ALL families! Each teacher will be in their classroom ready to meet parents to talk about routines and expectations for the upcoming school year, and answer questions. Classroom schedules, expectations, and the new school calendar will be available this evening. We will also have some of our extracurricular vendors attending to give you a chance to meet them and learn about their class. We would like for at least one parent per family to come to this event so that we can keep you updated on any new or changing policies. We look forward to seeing each of you on this very important night.

*Please note, childcare will not be provided.*
