Abstract/Notes: This chapter problematises notions of pedagogy as being limited to teaching-learning practices within the classroom and explores what pedagogy could be like when education goes beyond transfer of content knowledge or development of skills and competencies. The chapter emphasises that education for harmony is brought about by a continuum of shared lived experiences and that these are not just engendered through classroom practices, but also by the culture and people within the school. It emphasises the importance of classroom and school-wide ethos, Teacher Student Relations, and autonomous behaviour regulation as underpinning the continuum of lived experiences.

Abstract/Notes: In this study, ten third-grade students in a Montessori classroom were observed and encouraged to discover strategies to help them manage their coursework. The teacher facilitated individual conferences with each student that focused on developing specific independent work time strategies. The students also had the opportunity to assemble a portfolio and to reflect on their progress. In addition, quantitative data was collected that focused on student engagement and work completion. The study revealed that students were drawn to larger projects, particularly in history and geography. They were also drawn to work that would need little to no guidance to complete. Based on these findings, to engage students in various subject areas there should be opportunities for one-on-one feedback and for large, culminating projects as long as all necessary resources for completion are easily accessible to students.

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this study is to explore the spiritual preparation process of a classroom team and its effects on the adults and children in the classroom. It aimed to identify traits and behaviors of leaders and colleagues which support healthy spirituality necessary for a harmonious classroom. The researcher collected data through instruments used by the members of the classroom team, including pre/post surveys, an interactive video journal application called Marco Polo, classroom observations, and a photo journal curated by the members of the team. The researcher then tracked themes throughout the data to identify patterns of behavior which did or did not support adults’ connections to each other, the children and families in their care, and/or the environment of the classroom. It was found that connection to each of these elements was increased through intentional communication both in times of ease and flow, as well as times of challenge. Acceptance of these cycles of joyful and difficult moments as “normal” was also an important factor in the classroom team’s development of shared spirituality.

Abstract/Notes: The following research assesses how the daily integration of singing and listening to music helps to construct a socially cohesive, cooperative and joyful classroom during clean up time. This study combined group singing opportunities, a music listening station and music played during clean up time. The songs used for this study included lyrical themes of cooperation, happiness, overcoming obstacles and/or friendship. The thirty-day study involved twenty-one participants between the ages of six and nine at a public, Montessori school in Missouri. Each individual completed a pre- and post-survey, as well as a survey each time they used the music listening station. During clean up time, observations were taken daily to record instances of helpful behaviors and joy amongst the participants. Results of the surveys showed that the intervention was successful at increasing positive experiences during clean up time and including a Music Listening Station as an available work choice. The intervention was not successful in creating positive experiences when singing together as a group. Further research may include the use of other mediums to promote community and collaboration like the fine arts, sports or other group oriented activities.

Abstract/Notes: The current study aims to explore the effectiveness of Montessori Method in the Algerian EFL primary classrooms. This research was conducted through mixed method (qualitative and quantitative methods), and the data was collected through Observation and questionnaire. For the observation, the participants were third year EFL primary teacher and her learners, who are 30 students divided into 17 girls and 13 boys, in Saad Saoud El Messoud primary school in Bordj Bou Arreridj, Algeria. The participants of the questionnaire were 30 EFL primary teachers, it is an online questionnaire conducted through Google form platform. The aim of the research is to find out whether the EFL primary teachers are implementing the principles of the MM or not, and to figure out if the manners, actions, and behaviours used by the teacher are appropriate for the learning process or not. However, after the answers of the questionnaire and the 9 hours of observation during 3 months, the authors find out that the MM is not implemented by the EFL primary teachers, because there is no freedom, no choices, and no appropriate materials and environment for the young learners. Thus, the findings encourage the need for the EFL teachers to identify and imitate the aspects of the Montessori Method

Abstract/Notes: This action research project was created to study the different behaviors (focused and unfocused) that occurred when different types of music were played in the background of an early childhood Montessori classroom. The study took place at a private Montessori school located in the southeastern part of Wisconsin. There was a total of 26 children in the classroom which consisted of grades 3K through Kindergarten, with ages ranging between two and a half to six-years old. Over a six-week period, three different music conditions were implemented (two weeks at a time) into the background of the classroom environment; no music, classical music and Disney music. Focused and unfocused behaviors were observed and documented during each music condition. Quantitative and qualitative data collections were used and then analyzed to determine if music aids or deters a child’s focus. The results of the study showed that music does aid in helping a child focus during the work cycle of an early childhood Montessori classroom; specifically, the three-year olds showed the most increase in focused behavior when music played in the background. The effects of music on independent versus group work was also considered during this action research project as well as how to determine which music to include or avoid when playing music in the background of an early childhood classroom.
