Tuesday, october 4th, 2022

Montessori Leadership forum: It’s Time to Check Some Monte-Assumptions
Taking Stock of What We’ve Learned
About Children, Teaching, Learning, and Leadership with special guest Jonathan Wolff
Wednesday, october 5th, 2022
1:00 PM – 2:00 PM ET USA
One of the few positive side effects of trying to conduct an authentic Montessori
program in the midst of a pandemic has been that we had been forced to re-think
the nature of the prepared environment, our instructional practices, and our
relations and communications with students, fellow staff, and parents. Perhaps it’s an ideal time to take a fresh look at some of our long-standing assumptions about how we deliver Montessori education. In this leadership forum, led by Jonathan Wolff, we will consider some Montessori practices we may want to reaffirm and retain; some that may need some alteration or updating; and some we may wish to delete from our classroom practices.
MONTESSORI FAMILY LIFE WEBINAr: How Much Is Too Much?: Giving Children What They Need May Not Always Be What They Want
Tuesday, october 11th, 2022
1:00 PM – 1:45 PM ET USA
How do we know where the line is between enough and too much? Where does too much lead us and our children? How do we get past the everyday “Gimmies” mindset and into the abundance and sharing the wealth mindset?” Join our team for a frank discussion about the long term effects of “too much” and, instead, help our children enjoy the richness of life.
