Maria Montessori, creator of The Montessori Method, was always guiding the Montessori teacher to observe as children learn, how the educational program is running in their environment and more.
If you are wanting to have excellent Montessori classrooms, offer high quality Montessori activities and target the sensitive periods in child development, then you need to reflect!
Come and find out how you can use this printable form to get your Montessori environment set up correctly, to learn what is working, what needs to change, etc.
You will be on your way to watch young children working with joy, curiosity, interest and confidence!
Let’s talk about how you can get your Printable Weekly Reflections in the Montessori Curriculum and why you should use it.
#1 It brings awareness
Take time to think on the positive aspects of the week.
See what worked and take note of it.
Whether you are doing Montessori at home or yo are a Montessori Guide at a Montessori school, you will benefit from this activity.
Staying positive is important because you want to feel like you were successful in some way.
Don’t put yourself down if it takes a while to find something that went right during the week (some weeks might just feel like this).
You will get it right, in time and with the help of this reflections form.
This form will keep you focused, see your week at a glance and see the entire thing more clearly.
As you develop your plan, this reflections sheet will be proven invaluable!
#2 It exposes faults
Take time to think on the aspects that didn’t go well and changes that need to be made.
Are you not setting up the right Montessori materials?
Are children not interested? Are the materials too easy or too difficult?
All of these questions are going to help you reflect on what is going amiss during your weeks.
Don’t dwell on the negative the whole time.
But, of course, you want to still be open to see and acknowledge what went wrong so you can come up with a plan to fix it.
As you fill out the weekly Montessori reflections sheet week after week, you will be able to see and notice patterns of things you do that go wrong.
You can now detect those negative patterns and break them!
You can then develop a better pattern and a better plan.
Does that make sense?
#3 It’s a reminder
The honest to goodness truth is that gratitude can be easily forgotten.
We so easily neglect what we desperately want to instill in our children and our students!
This printable weekly Montessori reflections sheet will help remind us on what is truly important.
