MAKE NEW FRIENDS AND KEEP THE OLD
A classic song! As students get back into the swing of things at school, they are reconnecting with old friends and also making new ones. Of course, friends make the day more fun but in our Montessori environments they are an important part of learning. In fact, peer learning is one of the reasons we have mixed age classrooms!
Here's a great example of peer learning from the Honeysuckle community. The child on the left is new this year. Another student saw that they were interested in the bells and offered to show them how to do it. Last year, this child was new themselves! It's wonderful to see his confidence and joy in helping another. Lessons from guides are an important element in each child's day but, as you can see, peer learning is important too.
Music really brings people together doesn't it!
The Tone Bars are the elementary musical material that progresses from the Bells found in Children's House classrooms.
Coincidentally, we saw some great peer learning happening with tone bars in Lower Elementary this week.
Check out the new Climbing Wall!
A big THANK YOU to our Facilities & Land Manager, Tate Green, for building this fun new addition this summer! The wall is for Elementary and Adolescent students only and quite a challenge to navigate. It's located in the back field near the GaGa pit.
