[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just because a child “loves” something, doesn’t mean it is good for her. “Work”, with only one acceptable way of doing things, is not developmentally appropriate for young children. As adults, parents have the responsibility to choose the best type of schooling for their child. By the way, Montessori was in to teaching kids skills that they needed at the time, like washing dishes and sweeping. Children now need to be taught social and emotional skills at the preschool age. Academics come after those skills. [/quote] This is weird to me. 1/3 of my kids went Montessori (other two play based) and I didn’t notice a difference in social emotional skills. In the mixed age classroom, the kids do work together a fair amount, and they have recess, lunch, another recess, etc. Montessori isn’t jail!![/quote]
