“A contact is a small thing, it is like the light switch that can turn on 200 light bulbs. It can bring light to where there was darkness, it can transform life, it can open doors that have been closed for centuries, it can fling open windows that have been sealed closed since time immemorial.” Maria Montessori

A COURSE ABOUT MONTESSORI CORE VALUES AND EDUCATIONAL PRACTICES FOR RAISING PEACEFUL CHILDREN
What is a sensitive period? It is when nature provides a window of great opportunity of being at the peak of our potential for learning and acquiring new skills and new capacities. In the first year of life we build our brains and we take to our feet and we launch our life. We build the foundations of everything we will accomplish and create. Supporting development in these great windows of opportunity means knowing about how to support these sensitive periods.
Format
Each topic section will have two presentations on video as well as supplementary reading materials/videos/audios on the topic and will be completed online at your own pace. A group discussion, a session uniquely for your questions - following your curiosities and interests - will be held for each topic. This online class meeting will give each topic a container and a chance for us to meet each other. After three topic sections there will be a session dedicated to small group discussions.
