Welcome to the Pod! Join our wait pool, today.
Welcome Back, Montessori Pod Learners. Pod meetings begin this September!
Initial aims and focus for the year:
Wednesday & Thursday Classes (9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.):
History & Simple Machines - Cross-curricular learning projects will begin with an in-depth exploration of simple machines—examining their history, applications in both ancient and modern societies, the mathematical principles behind them, and the engineering concepts they embody. Integrated subject studies will include (but not limited to) Historical, Geographic, Ecological, Language, Math, and hands-on Practical Life application studies. Project: The unit will culminate in a collaborative Rube Goldberg design project, integrating all areas of study.
Language & The Printing Press - taking our knowledge of simple machines and applying it to the invention of writing, storytelling, and history recording.

Our current group of learners has openings available for students ages 9 - 12 to join them in this year's learning cycle.
If interested in learning more about the Montessori Homeschool Pod for 9-12 year old learners, please email us at: emmausmontessorihomeschool@gmail.com.
The Montessori Homeschool Pod is offering families the option to collaboratively use the classroom space and materials to create a Montessori Co-op. The space and materials are available for use on Mondays. The learning materials are best suited towards ages 6-9; however, younger siblings may benefit from the learning environment as well with parent guidance and support.
The co-op format means you and other like-minded families can share our well-equipped learning environment and create a schedule that fits your unique homeschool or enrichment needs — all while building a supportive community together. This is just another option to create a flexible, collaborative Montessori learning experience for our children.
What’s Included:
Access to our beautiful Montessori classroom and materials
Flexible co-op use with other families, where those collaborating may determine how best to accommodate sibling age ranges and time availability.
Initial coaching and support from me, at no charge, to help your group get started and feel confident
Guidance on best practices for using materials and organizing your days
Costs to Consider:
To cover basic expenses, participating families would share a fee that helps with:
Renting the space
Maintaining and refreshing materials
Insurance coverage for the group
If you’ve been wishing for a prepared Montessori environment without the full commitment of a traditional program — and want to be part of a small, like-minded community — we’d love to hear from you.
