This project is fully funded

My Students

My students live in an urban setting and attend their neighborhood schools. Which started offering the students the opportunity to attend a free Public Montessori School offering parents education utilizing Maria Montessori Educational Theory.

The students are multi-ages and use the key principles to learning development, which foster Independence, Observation, Following the Child, Prepared Environment, and Absorbent Mind.

My students will learn English Language Arts, Mathematics, Botany, Geography, History, and more with the materials donated.

My Project

The Montessori Students enjoy all of the holidays in class the students will receive a book and pop it to enjoy at home on their winter break. The Montessori Students enjoy the snow and the book selected will enhance their joy for the winter season, the books would be a part of the gift bag for the students to have at home to continue to build their reading library. The students enjoy reading books that discuss the seasons, holidays, and other exciting topics we learn about in our Montessori Class.
