Do you wonder what goes on in that Montessori unit at your school or the Montessori primary school down the road? Have you ever wondered about some of the terms you hear used to describe what happens in a Montessori primary class? Have you ever felt that you wanted to understand your child more as they transitioned from preschool to primary class and beyond? If you have answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions then this is a course for you.
