Welcome to a vibrant exploration of English Language Arts (ELA), meticulously designed and led by Ms. Noel, a seasoned Montessori guide at Quantum Montessori. This class is an invitation for upper elementary and middle school students to dive into the depths of language, literature, and creative expression. Through dynamic and personalized learning experiences, students are set to embark on a journey that not only enhances their comprehension and analytical skills but also ignites a lifelong passion for reading and writing.

I use a blend of Montessori principles with innovative educational strategies to create an inclusive, student-centered learning environment. Classes are held twice a week for 60 minutes, featuring:

👩‍🏫 Live Interactive Lessons: Incorporating videos, slides, and other multimedia resources to cater to various learning styles.

🧠 Creative Strategies: Utilizing hands-on, creative approaches to make learning fun and memorable.

⭐️ Individualized Attention: Focusing on the needs and progress of each student to ensure personalized growth.
