This month-long course covers a variety of Montessori subjects, each infused with a Halloween twist to keep young learners engaged and excited.

Each class begins with an introduction to the day’s topic. I will complete the activity alongside the students, guiding them step by step and providing real-time feedback to ensure understanding. Afterward, learners will have a chance to work independently, exploring the lesson material on their own. We’ll regroup to share our answers and reflect on the activity as a class, encouraging collaboration and peer learning.

Interaction is key in this class. Learners will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions, participate in discussions, and share their work with both me and their classmates. Whether we’re reviewing answers together, playing a game, or engaging in a group activity, students will receive personalized attention and enjoy a collaborative learning environment.

𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗥

The lessons are designed to be fun, interactive, and multi-sensory. I’ll use a mix of lectures, games, slides, videos, songs, discussions, stories, and worksheets to make each topic engaging and accessible for all types of learners. From singing songs about the parts of speech to experimenting with friction in science, every lesson incorporates a variety of teaching tools to keep kids motivated.

My approach is to keep learning fun, engaging, and productive. I believe that children learn best when they’re excited about the material, so I strive to make each class feel like a new adventure. Whether we’re creating art, solving math puzzles, or sharing costumes, my goal is to ensure students feel supported and encouraged every step of the way.
