At a New SchoolSeptember 19, 2009 by Miss Norma | 2 comments

Hello,

It has been a while since I had a chance to update my status. Been through some rough times but it’s a lot better now.  Now I am working at a charter Montessori school.  I really like it there, it’s different but workable.  I am working with a 6-9 year classroom so its truly exciting and different since I’ve only worked with this age group for a little while.  I do plan on going for my 6-9 year training.  A lot of the materials are same as the 3-6, but they are used at a higher level.  If anyone has any tips on how to work with the 6-9 classroom I would love to hear from you.  I have albums that I am looking through but it’s always insightful to here from first hand experience.

Sorry to those of you that I have not responded too, it is on my  to-do list, so you will be hearing from me soon.

The math environment is one of the most inviting areas of the classrooms. The beads and counters call the childrens attention. This area is so enticing! When I was going through my training I was so amazed with the math materials. Every presentation they gave me [...] Continue Reading…
