Setting Up a Montessori Classroom

A Montessori classroom has 5 components: Practical Life, Sensorial, Math, Language, and Cultural. Largely, a Montessori classroom tends to be minimalist and elegant: the complexity is simple, but the possibilities are emergent. A student can explore and traverse these 5 domains easily and naturally.

Notable Quotes

"The founding principle of Montessori philosophy is that the environment should inspire the student’s natural desire to learn. To this end, Montessori education is child-led. After setting up an attractive classroom, the teacher’s job is to step back and allow the child to explore the area. It is up to the child to show the teacher what they would like to learn."
