Creating a successful community in the Montessori classroom is greatly enhanced by the use of regular classroom meetings. These meetings give voice to the children and provide opportunities for them to make decisions and solve problems as a group. What better way to build leadership skills! This workshop will offer a template on how to start meetings with young children in the primary classroom (ages 3-6). We will talk through the stages so that both teachers and students feel successful.
