Montessori Monday

Yeah!! We received our new materials last week. The children have been more busy helping prepare their enviroment than actually doing independent montessori work. Our space just got a little smaller adding in new materials and shelves. Our days have been spent rearranging and exploring the new goods. Well you know once children get the montessori bug you can't stop them from itchin to do some works. So here are some pics of them squeezing in some work, while preparing the enviroment, and enjoying the sun.
