Our Young Cultural Ambassadors: Montessori Peacemakers for a Modern World
Available from: ProQuest
Publication: Montessori Life, vol. 19, no. 2
Date: 2007
Pages: 42-47
See More
Abstract/Notes: This article describes the Language Center Montessori School in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where students are learning in a language-immersion Montessori environment. The school offers a choice to parents--Spanish immersion or French immersion--but Montessori comes with both. The school's motivation for promoting bilingualism is to improve communication across cultural boundaries, and to promote peace, respect, and an appreciation of diversity. Though bilingualism may increase cognitive development, this is not the school's driving force. It wants to foster a generation of "cultural ambassadors" who can build bridges across cultures. It also wants to create a new generation of peacemakers who value tolerance, diversity, and hope, and who effect change at home and across borders.
