I Can't Keep Up With Them:) Montessori Monday

For real!! I am steps behind this crew.It is fun to see them having fun and learning. I remember just this time last year these little people couldn't stay out of the Practical Life area for nothing. It paid off! Big time. The kids are interested in everything. Giving individual lessons are not happening, Why?  because anytime I ask one person if they would like a lesson, everyone comes along to see the presentation:) One day last week for the very first time ever I got a chance to sit down for an hour. I finally got a chance to really observe, it was fascinating:) I definetly got busy over the weekend and put out a few works. I will have to do another post on that, for now I have some pics of the children working.

                                                    Sorting beads


                                             Measuring pumpkins and gourds


                                                Spooning autumn shaped beads


Sandpaper letters. I just noticed that order spells a word:) I wonder if she knows that. Can't wait until tomorrow!!

                                                 Metal insets admiration


                                                    Wet pouring


                                                         Knobless cylinders


                                                    Ordering apples using the number line


                                                Matching fabrics by sight and touch


                                                Working with landform tray.


                                                         Painting a pumpkin


                           Autumn language cards from Montessori Print Shop


I am looking forward to another fun busy week. To see other children doing activities inspired by the Montessori Method please visit One Hook Wonder and Living Montessori Now for Montessori Monday.
