It involves creating an environment where children can choose from a variety of hands-on activities and materials to explore at their own pace. The method emphasizes individualized learning, respect for each child’s unique developmental path, and the role of the teacher as a guide rather than a traditional instructor. Montessori education is widely used in preschool and early childhood settings but has also been adapted for older students. The celebration took the form of an insightful panel discussion, offering attendees a unique opportunity to explore the principles and teachings of the Montessori Method and their relevance in today’s educational landscape.
