We all know that observation is essential to the work of the Montessori guide, yet most Montessori educators struggle to make it the cornerstone of their practice. In this session we explore how to develop an “observant mind,” that can serve as our guide for supporting the unique potential of every child. The session will address when, what, what and how to observe with practical tips for making it a daily and constant habit. But observation alone is not enough. Once we have the information, what do we do with it? How do we use it to guide our work? Come explore this important topic and learn about how the cycle of observation can help us follow the child.
