[quote=Anonymous]There are some drawbacks in the Montessori period such as no pretend play and sometimes little music and PE, but I've found that some Montessori schools allow this stuff in the afternoons for a more balanced americanized version of preschool. Unfortunately the closest Montessori school to us has a very strict version of Montessori materials only being allowed all day long from 8-6 forcing us to look further out, so these types are still out there too. As the children get older in Montessori they are encouraged more to work collaboratively. It seems to be the opposite in a way of traditional schooling which is why I prefer Montessori as the children get a little older. We definitely had a positive experience overall but went with a more modernized one which suited us the best.[/quote]
