[quote=Anonymous]So many misconceptions here! (FWIW: A am a Montessori teacher.) * Like ANY program/teaching philosophy, the class is as good as the TEACHER. * No, a GOOD teacher would NOT let a child do whatever they wanted all day. * SOCIAL SKILLS are a HUGE aspect of the Montessori philosophy. It is actually titled "Grace & Courtesy" and there is an entire curriculum that is followed. * At my school, the children have a 45 morning recess, in addition to music, art, PE, library. Additional recess in the afternoon, too, for extended-day.r * There are 2 Montessori certifications. (AMS & AMI.) AMS is a slightly more laid-back approach than AMI. However, both certifications require extensive training for teachers. [/quote]
