Having a chance to prep for a new unit always sends me down a learning rabbit hole. I’ve spent the week exploring the continental shifts that divided Africa and South America and identifying the fundamental differences and the evolutionary changes that caused ostriches and emus to lose flight on two different continents. The current plate tectonics that are creating a rift in eastern Africa play into the works, too.
Doing this research brings us back to the fundamentals and is the reason behind the appeal of Montessori learning for me as a teacher. If we can continue

Doing this research brings us back to the fundamentals and is the reason behind the appeal of Montessori learning for me as a teacher. If we can continue to revel in the learning, the children will as well.
Some of the challenge about finding information about the earliest civilizations in Africa via English language websites is another reason that Montessori appeals to me. We are a fundamentally social justice-based learning environment based on Maria Montessori’s own works. Just look:

Education for Peace
We must look to the children as a vehicle for bringing change to humanity.
