Class Experience

During this interactive class children will get an opportunity to talk amongst each other and problem solve in a fun and creative way. We will discuss several topics for example emotions, problem-solving, using kind words, and taking turns. The structure of the class will be welcoming and very open-ended.  All topics will be chosen by learners and discussed as a group (child centered). Each learners ideas and interest is important and they will all get an opportunity to (engage in conversation) speak about how they feel and what they might want to do different. 

This is a very engaging class and offers learners a sense of independence. During each class we will focus on two different tops according to learners interest (learners will be encouraged to give examples).

These are  topics that will be discussed:
Problem solving
Using kind words
Emotions 
Taking turns 
Helping hands 
Our Senses (5 5senses)
Healthy Eating ( all around the world)
Our LOUD voice and soft voice 
Germs (also hand washing)
Weather ( all over the world)
How to turn your day around (things get better)
Each learner can bring something special to class that they can discuss or show the class (for example a special toy or blanket). 


Montessori-This method of education is based on self directed activities, hands-on learning and collaborative play. In Montessori classrooms children make creative choices in their learning, while the teacher offers age-appropriate activities to guide the process. 

Experience in this field of work is required and I have had the proper training and guidance in order to successfully teach this skill. I also have a degree in Education and Health and Human Services, and this has allowed me to see things from different perspectives.
Learning Goals
Learners will improve their confidence in knowing how to problem solve and build their social skills.

I have worked in public, private and home-school programs. Each one of them are very special, but through it all I was given an opportunity to teach a Montessori class and I loved it.  With that being said, do you know that many people learn best this way.  I feel that this is my area of expertise, because I have studied this way of learning for many years and this is also the way I learn best. I also continue educating myself on ways to improve this learning style.
