The week of November 11

Parents,

This Friday is our Thanksgiving Feast. Thank you to all who have signed up to help bring things.  Here is the link if you would like to help https://www.trackitforward.com/site/389525/events

This week we will be introducing the continent of North America and we will focus on the Desert biome.  We will also continue talking about beginning with the end in mind. The book we will read for this is called Roberto the insect architect by Nina Laden.

The office has asked me to pass this info along to you

If you do not know your student’s ASPIRE number or have any questions, please call the office.

Here is your Montessori thought for the week:

“What is Montessori?

As educators we get asked that question often . . .We ask ourselves, What is Montessori? Perhaps we’re asking the wrong question. The idea that there is a ‘Montessori’, one way to respond. . .one magic combination of ingredients that makes our classroom or school ‘real’ separates us from our authentic work.

When we realize that Montessori is a verb, an action and not a thing, we grant ourselves grace to grow”

The Tao of Montessori by Catherine McTamaney

Have a great week.
