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.

Montessori Meets British Columbia's New Curriculum: Incorporating Montessori Principles into Public School Classrooms

Available from: University of Victoria (Canada) - Institutional Repository

See More

Abstract/Notes: At a time in which technology is both pivotal and ever-changing, the need for students to become independent and passionate learners has never been more important. With the unveiling of British Columbia’s new curriculum, it has become evident that preparing students for a future riddled with constant change, instant communication, and immediate information is paramount. As such, the redesigned curriculum focuses on personalized learning, flexible learning environments, and inquiry-based learning as just a few of its cornerstones. Ironically, Maria Montessori recognized these same needs over one hundred years ago. This paper is intended to provide insight as to the parallels between BC’s new curriculum and the Montessori approach. As we move towards classrooms rich in both learning experiences and pedagogy, it is hoped that educators interested in the Montessori approach may implement some of the ideas within this document.

Before the Sandpaper Letters: Creating Phonological Awareness in the Montessori 3-6 Classroom

See More

Abstract/Notes: Many Montessori teachers know what to do in the 3-6 classroom when it comes to the sandpaper letters and movable alphabet. Still, many are unsure what to do before that to help children learn to read and write. Phonological awareness is a critical, but often overlooked, part of the curriculum. This is true in Montessori and traditional settings. "Before the Sandpaper Letters" provides a lot of practical advice and activities from a seasoned Montessori teacher. You'll learn such things as print awareness, word awareness, rhyming, and phonemic awareness. This book also comes with a glossary of reading terms to help you better learn and communicate in the field. This is what every Montessori teacher should know, but may not have gotten in their training.

English as a Foreign Language in the Montessori Classroom

See More

Abstract/Notes: The Montessori Method was developed in the early 1900s by an Italian medical doctor named Maria Montessori. Though there are Montessori schools around the world, there is little published about teaching a foreign or second language in a Montessori environment.Matt Bronsil has been working in Taiwan for over a decade and shares his experience and expertise of teaching English as a foreign language in a Montessori 3-6 year old environment. This book looks at:--Understanding the Montessori Method.--Evaluating the needs of your students and school.--Philosophy of teaching a foreign language.--Teaching oral communication skills.--Teaching writing and reading.--Advanced reading skills for this age.This book is an excellent tool not only for the foreign teacher in Montessori settings, but anyone that works with young children, teacher or parent, who want more tools to help children develop their language skills.

Abstract/Notes: Thayer-Bacon tells her story in a conversational tone that traces her personal and professional roots as she describes various chapters of her life: first as a philosopher, how she became involved in education, and then how that involvement became a career as a philosopher of education, in a large teacher education program, and now at a research institution. She sketches her philosophical contributions, as a pragmatist, feminist, postmodernist, and cultural studies scholar, to philosophy, philosophy of education, and education.
