Montessori training for teachers

by gcat

Where can I find more information about Montessori training for teachers? I have just returned from CMTE/NY and would like to explore other avenues for teacher training. I live and will be working in Arizona. Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. :)

An idea I have for Montessori parents

by former Montessori parent

Jul 19, 2010

I'm a stay at home mom and my kids attended a wonderful Montessori preschool. I loved the independence that they learned and which we encouraged at home. We did so by having them put away their own clothes (labeled the drawers with photos of socks, pajamas, etc) and had a snack tray so that they could fix their own snack, a small pitcher for them t...See More

Emily Yes, there is a great need for exactly what you propose. I would love to have something like this available for the parents I work with. I think it means so much for parents to hear it from another parent who has done it in their home.

Please post here when you have your newsletter started.

maureen Montessori teacher's advice was all great. The only thing I would add from my experience all these years is this: Be sure your children are going to bed at a decent hour each night. By decent, I mean getting around 12 hours of sleep at night. The number one problem I see with some children is simply that they are not getting enough sleep at night. ...See More

Emily I know at least one parent found it helpful with her reluctant/nervous son to make a scrapbook with him about starting school. It was a fun activity and a way for them to talk about starting school. They did things like taking a pictures and making drawings of things that he would take to school and the friends he would see and meet there and then ...See More

Mary Sanford Jones put together a nice CD of music for walking on the line - he's the one that does the Montessori operas. Also, in the Advanced Montessori Method (book by Dr. M) there are specific melodies to use
