A Path to Math Mastery: The Montessori Bead Chain Cabinet
Visit any primary or elementary Montessori classroom and you’ll immediately notice a stunning display of colorful glass beads hanging in an open cabinet. Children (and adults!) are drawn to the order and elegance of the bead chains. Beyond their initial aesthetic appeal, the bead chain material offers an amazing array of intellectual opportunities for young children to those in their elementary years.
The Profound Power of the Absorbent Mind
Unlike other species that are born with a predetermined set of behaviors, human babies are born with a set of potentials. When a child is born, we have no idea if they will be a master musician or a creative chef. It’s pretty amazing when we think about it! Children are constantly creating the skills they need to become contributing adults.
Crafting Conversations That Open Up Your Child
When we pick up our children from school, it can be so tempting to ask, “How was your day?” Often the responses we get are lackluster. The reality is it can be hard for children to talk about their experiences at school. If we shift our approach, however, we can often start meaningful conversations and get more insight into our children’s day.
From Chaos to Calm: The Magic of Toy Rotation
The abundance of toys often leads to clutter, overstimulation, and decreased interest in each individual plaything. This is where the magic of toy rotation comes in. The idea is to curate a carefully selected set of toys and activities for your child to explore during a specific period. By offering a limited number of options, you enhance your child's focus, encourage deeper engagement, and even foster a sense of gratitude for the toys they have.
Guiding Your Child to Healthy Sleep Habits
We place a lot of emphasis in Montessori on independence because we want to help children become highly capable young people! For our youngest children, this means supporting them in the mastery of basic functions such as eating, toileting, and sleeping. Supporting growth in independent skills is significant because these are areas of life where children have control over what does and does not happen.
