It was an ordinary day in the classroom, when suddenly “You’ve got it!” said a teacher to a grinning child. The boy’s expression was priceless: part surprise, part joy, and pure pride. These are cherished moments for teachers, fueling our passion and love for teaching.
The road to Aha! Moments is not the same for each child and are filled with bumps, turns and road blocks. The teacher’s role is not to smooth the bumps or clear the blocks, but rather to fuel the child’s determination and provide the tools for him/her to keep moving at their own pace.
Our Montessori classrooms provide the roadmap for our children to discover and create their Aha! Moments.
It’s going to be another magical year in our classrooms!
