Practical life Exercises are just that, they are Exercises so the child can learn how to do living activities in a purposeful way. The purpose and aim of Practical Life is to help the child gain control in the coordination of his movement, and help the child to gain independence and adapt to his society. It is therefore important to “Teach teaching, not correcting” (Montessori) in order to allow the child to be a fully functionional member in hios own society.

Practical Life Exercises also aid the growth and development of the child’s intellect and concentration and will in turn also help the child develop an orderly way of thinking. Practical Life Exercises can be categorized into four different groups: Preliminary Applications, Applied Applications, Grace and Courtesy, and Control of Moment. In the Preliminary Exercises, the child learns the basic movements of all societies such as pouring, folding, and carrying. Canadian Montessori Teacher Education Institute.

The Montessori Great Lesson Page. My name is Barbara Dubinsky. I have been involved in the Montessori community for 30 years, through my own children, as an assistant, administrator, Lower Elementary teacher and now as a trainer. Fourteen years ago, I joined the movement of Montessori into the public schools - a most exciting expansion. I teach at a magnet school in Charlotte, NC. It is both challenging and ever so rewarding at the same time. Our school is given much freedom to do what we need to do as Montessorians; we have fought fiercely to have this freedom and have proven that what we do is the best system for children. For many years, as a member of the Montessori Educational Listserv ( listserv@aol.com - write Subscribe Montessori-L in the body of the message) I saw many questions about the Great Lessons themselves and how to keep the work of the Great Lessons active in the class.

This year I have finally pulled together all my work into four albums. The Montessori Goldmine. Homeschooling ~ Get Organized! | The Wonder of Childhood. For those of you who are new to homeschooling, congratulations! You are embarking on a grand adventure which will bring growth to you and your entire family. Homeschooling is exciting and liberating in so many ways, the parent sets the tone, creates the environment, organizes the calender, chooses the curriculum and participates in the learning process. Children are involved in the life of the home and can carry their responsibilities through the day with practical work that supports family and community life. The paradigm of schooling and learning as something that takes place away from home shifts and imbues all of life, learning becomes something that occurs with daily living; it it truly s a live education. Homeschooling calls on us to look within and find our strengths and our limits and the courage to push ourselves to learn new things like painting and drawing and cooking and singing and music!

Keep it simple and practical. Begin with your pencil and a calender or planner. Home. Free Homeschooling LapBooks. Storybird - Artful storytelling. Bloom's Taxonomy. Bloom's wheel, according to the Bloom's verbs and matching assessment types. The verbs are intended to be feasible and measurable. Bloom's taxonomy is a classification of learning objectives within education. It is named for Benjamin Bloom, who chaired the committee of educators that devised the taxonomy, and who also edited the first volume of the standard text, Taxonomy of Educational Objectives: The Classification of Educational Goals. Bloom's taxonomy refers to a classification of the different objectives that educators set for students (learning objectives).

It divides educational objectives into three "domains": cognitive, affective, and psychomotor (sometimes loosely described as "knowing/head", "feeling/heart" and "doing/hands" respectively). Bloom's taxonomy is considered to be a foundational and essential element within the education community. History[edit] The first volume of the taxonomy, "Handbook I: Cognitive" (Bloom et al. 1956) was published in 1956. Cognitive[edit]

Posted by Ingrid Chou, Assistant Creative Director, Department of Advertising and Graphic Design The yellow shapes are movable magnets, which can be repositioned to fit into the small forest scene at bottom right.

Photo by Michael Nagle When we first met with the educators from MoMA’s Education Department to discuss the Shape Lab installation, we knew instantly that this project had to be FUN for us, the designers—and that FUN needed to be part of the design for the visitors. Shape Lab is an interactive educational space for families. The educators’ intention for this space is to encourage visitors to interact with the space and explore the different ways artists use shapes in painting and sculpture. Families are greeted by four interactive magnetic walls: the title wall, with movable yellow highlights; a wall with movable black-and-white geometric shapes; a wall with movable colorful, organic shapes; and a wall with movable blue 3D blocks, inspired by the artist Donald Judd.
