Rather than standing in front of the class sharing facts, a Montessori teacher plans activities designed to introduce and reinforce concepts.
Rather than standing in front of the class sharing facts, a Montessori teacher plans activities designed to introduce and reinforce concepts. These are chosen based on the ages and abilities of the students in the class and often take a hands-on approach to learning. Once the child chooses their activity, the teacher then assumes the role of a guide, answering questions or subtly leading the student into discovery.
