montessori


Has anyone heard of this?

We got a free magazine in the ELC and there's an interview with Tana Ramsay (wife of Gordon) and apparently she used to teach it

It's an education system that teaches children through sight and sound rather than being dictated to.

I must admit it does appeal to me as even now i feel i can perform a task much faster and easier if i get shown what to do rather than following instructions which can be confusing.

Oh i like the sound of that, i was always rubish at following instructions at school, but if a could see what i had to do, then i was off with brill results and it turns out my elder boy is the same.
I might have a good look into that, thanks.
