Guidepost Montessori at Craig Ranch

Happy St. Patrick's Day to our families and friends who are celebrating!

Look at me now! From Nido to Children's House! This little guy loves to smile, sleep, and eat! He enjoys practical life and sensorial lesson! Now he is learning to write, read, do the math, and more! We are thankful to be a part of his incredible growth! Even more, we are proud of all of his accomplishments and looking forward to more to come!

In our Nido community, we give a lesson on peeling the clementine. At first, the child was a little hesitant but with the guide's guidance to peel off a little at a time, she started to replicate the action shown to her. This lesson helps her develop independence in food preparation and a sense of ownership and pride in caring for his own needs.

Parenting Tip Tuesday!

Welcome to our Monday Guidepost Glossary of Montessori! We share and break down Montessori terms you need to know.

In Toddler's community, this child practices Polish a Mirror. This allows the child to take ownership, pride in caring for shared community spaces, and aids in the development of functional independence.
