The first school outing in 2024!!!

As the saying goes,

It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.. but for me, why don’t we do both when we can?

Yes, no doubt that reading and learning from paper materials is how we learn in most time of our lives, but outing is important as looking at the paper materials as the real experience helps human beings to build concrete memory about what they have been looking at πŸ‘€πŸ‘€

In Montessori, children of different ages learn together in the same classroom. This promotes collaboration, social skills, empathy, and the sharing of knowledge. Older children become mentors to younger ones, fostering a sense of community and mutual respect.

The β€œprepared environment”.

The β€œprepared environment” is Maria Montessori’s concept that the environment can be designed to facilitate maximum independent learning and exploration by the child. In the prepared environment, there is a variety of activities as well as a great deal of movement. A Montessori teacher serves as the preparer and communicator of the environment to the child and is responsible for maintaining the atmosphere and order of the prepared environment. The materials range from simple to complex and from concrete to abstract, catering toward every child’s age and ability.

Montessori classrooms are designed to offer lessons, activities, and tools that match the developmental needs and interests of each child. It is important to note that not every child will be interested in every available lesson. This is why children are allowed to choose the lessons they gravitate toward naturally.

Kids learn about the roots of a plant that take up water and nutrients from the soil. They also anchor the plant to the ground and keep it steady. The stem carries water and nutrients to different parts of the plant. It also provides support and keeps the plant standing upright.

We look for roots around the school.

Here are some interesting pictures to share. After collecting all the roots they record, gather them bit by bit and compile them as their scrapbook.
