A Community FOR the CHILDREN!
It opens the door for interaction
and a sense of community. The Montessori environment creates an atmosphere where children learn
to help and be helped by other children, because they interact consistently
with children whose age and abilities are varied. Children gain an appreciation
for their own achievement and the accomplishments of others. They develop a
strong sense of community and stability within the classroom. This community
aids the development of leadership and role modeling for one another, and social
skills such as kindness, courteousness, and respect. This is exactly why we
regularly share and discuss with the children our role in our community, in and
outside the classroom. The month of December is extra special because the
spirit of giving, generosity, peace and kindness is in the air. CalaverasMontessori School is contributing to our community by hosting a Toy Drive for
foster children. In an effort to help California foster children keep the joy
of the holidays in their hearts. We are hoping to collect 15 brand new toys for the children by December 20th! Any contribution would be
greatly appreciated. Thank you!
“The child is both the hope and promise for mankind”-
Dr. Maria Montessori
