Abstract/Notes: Nancy McCormick Rambusch, founder of the American Montessori Society, described the application and significance of synergy in The Authentic American Montessori School: A Guide for the Self-Study, Evaluation, and Accreditation of American Schools Committed to Montessori Education (AMS, 1992). [...]creating synergy within a Montessori community to reach the specific goals of our organization requires common effort through building a scaffolding of support: * providing time and opportunity for all members to share perspectives and thoughts * encouraging open-minded listening * appreciating and understanding all members' perspectives * identifying and clarifying the work ahead * developing consensus about steps needed to reach a goal and taking ownership of those steps * evaluating, assessing, and reflecting on the results of community effort * planning for the future Helen Keller once said, "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much" (1980, p. 489). Appreciating the power of synergy can help a community comprehend the negative impact ofbeing unwilling to accept others.

A Joyful Community

Pages: 8

Abstract/Notes: Learning itself involves a constant flux of perceptions and ideas, and this may cause children to feel vulnerable, with emotional swings from joy to anxiety. [...]with a bit of trust, planning, and preparation-and a dose of positive attitude-change can be the force that moves our natural spiritual energy forward into a life of learning. Show enthusiasm, smile often, build authentic relationships with all your students, get to know them as unique individuals, take them outside, incorporate diverse music into your class, avoid unhelpful criticism, and take time for yourself to reflect.
