[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20:50- why so defensive?   You seem very threatened by someone who disagrees with you.  Just sayin'.[/quote]

Not defensive or threatened so much as frustrated, because with every single Montessori thread, there are people who pop up all upset about the large class sizes, without having done a single bit of reading about the Montessori method. So easy for them to speak out of ignorance. Just sayin'.[/quote]

PP here. I am familiar with the theory. People are allowed to express their view that the "theory" doesn't always work in practice.[/quote]

You don't appear to have read all that much in light of your previous post incorrectly stating that Montessori classes have 25 to 30 "preschoolers." A basic tenet of Montessori instruction is a range in ages in the Primary class -- so from 3 to 6 YO, not all "preschoolers." The reason this works is so that the younger kids learn by observing and working with the older kids.[/quote]
