[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a good idea for upper elem kids. That's when you start to see a big difference in progression. That was our experience.[/quote] Can you please flesh out this point? Isn’t the very fact that you start to see a “big difference in progression” a reason that a Montessori approach would be especially beneficial?[/quote] As the kids get older, behavioral issues and lack of teacher control start to impact kids. Everyone can't just go work on their own and be "fine". Also, that's when all the testing starts. Montessori is really not set up to accommodate standardize testing. That's why a lot of purist say "Montessori light" for a lot of schools with upper el. [/quote]
