“This is an archipelago, and this is a system of lakes!” 🌎 Yes, those words are coming from a young child! In a Montessori classroom, geography isn’t just something children learn about. It’s something they can see, touch, explore, and understand. Big concepts, little hands. 💙 #montessorimoments #baandekmoments
apl” 🍎 You see a misspelled word. We see something remarkable. ❤️ In Montessori, writing is an expression of thought. With the Movable Alphabet, children turn their ideas into written words by listening to the sounds they hear and choosing the letters that represent them. She wrote “apl” because that’s how she hears apple. Her spelling may not be conventional, but she’s demonstrating something extraordinary: the ability to analyze sounds and use letters to express her own thoughts. What may look like a spelling mistake to an adult is actually evidence of a child making meaningful connections between sounds, letters, and language. 🌱 #montessorimoments #baandekmoments
This is what happens when we follow the child! 💚 After spending time growing, exploring, and building his independence in our Toddler Community, he was ready for Primary. And WOW! Just look at him go! The curiosity, the concentration, the excitement to try EVERYTHING! His love of learning is simply bursting out of him! This is why we never rush a child to the next stage. We trust their development, give them the time they need, and when they’re ready, the learning takes off! Sometimes, the biggest leaps happen when we give children the time to grow. 💚 #montessorimoments #baandekmoments
