[quote=Anonymous]Many Montessori teachers give lessons during circle time to an entire group and introduce many of the materials in the beginning of the year so that children can easily choose work to do. The are encouraged to finish something, but don't always have to. It is a good thing to encourage children to finish what they've begun and helps develop that executive function and concentration. It's not all free play exploration, but it is a nice mix between free play and center driven instruction where every child is doing the same art or math activity. In art Montessori seems to allow more exploratory art than most preschools I see.[/quote]
