Montessori Monday

 Wow!  Last week was different in a good way. The children have been becoming more independent during their work period. They are repeating works! Now their concentration is growing. They are finding great satisfaction in their work.  I always like giving out new lessons, but I know it is important for them to gain mastery in a skill before going on. I give out a lot of extensions on the same skill for the most part it begins to click for the child after a few. Now I am giving out extension activities because they are getting pure joy out of the work.
