Understanding MontessoriAs the head of an authentic Montessori school, I am frequently asked, “Why is there so much variation from one school to another? How can I know if I’ve found a ‘real’ Montessori school?”

The word “Montessori” is in the public do-main. This means that anyone can use the term, without legal restrictions. It also means that a wide range of schools exist that call themselves Montessori. It’s there-fore imperative for parents to do research before beginning the search for a Montes-sori program, so that they can recognize the essential characteristics of the philoso-phy and practice. Choosing an authentic Montessori program for your child will be the ultimate gift that will truly last a lifetime.

When visiting Montessori schools, first no-tice if the class includes mixed-aged stu-dents. A classroom with a range of ages (usually about three years, for example, ages 2.5 to 6 or 6 to 9) is a fundamental characteristic of Montessori. A group with children of varying ages generates a co-operative mentality in which older children spontaneously share their knowledge with younger children.

You will also want to look at the classroom set-up. Montessori classrooms are home-like, equipped with a full array of hands-on Montessori materials, teacher-made ma-terials, and up-to-date learning equipment for each stage of development (see figure 1). The focus of activity in the Montessori setting is on the children’s learning, not on the teachers’ teaching. The environment is designed to meet the individual needs, interests, abilities, and development of the children. Students rarely learn from work-books, worksheets or color-in sheets. In almost all cases, direct, personal, hands-

on contact with real things, multi-sensory “manipulatives,” and concrete models al-low children to gain a much deeper under-standing of abstract concepts.

True Montessori environments encour-age children to move about freely, within reasonable limits of appropriate behavior. Current brain research shows us that real learning occurs when the hand is in use, the learner feels happy and safe, and movement is involved. When children are allowed to choose their own activities, they are more interested in and engaged by the classroom environment. In an authentic Montessori classroom, you will perceive an atmosphere of peacefulness and joy.

Montessori philosophy emphasizes that the real work of learning belongs to the in-dividual child. The teacher recognizes that her role is not so much to teach as it is to observe and facilitate the learning process (see figure 2). Children learn in many dif-ferent ways and at their own pace. Trained Montessori teachers understand that they must “follow the child,” adjusting their strat-egies and timetable to fit the needs and in-terests of each child as a unique individual. Remember, the Montessori teacher creates a learning environment where children feel safe, cherished, loved, and empowered. She works to ensure that each child reach-es his full potential as a human being.

Finally, ask about a school’s professional affiliations. I recommend looking for a school that belongs either to the American Montessori Society, which requires mem-bers to agree to comply with a Code of Eth-ics and offers opportunities for accredita-tion as well as different membership levels (dependent on the number of appropriately

credentialed teachers in each classroom), or to the Association Montessori Interna-tionale, which also has membership levels. You will also want to know about the teach-ers’ Montessori credentials: both the level for which they were issued, such as Infant & Toddler or Early Childhood, and the ac-crediting body. Be especially impressed if the accrediting body is the Montessori Ac-creditation Council for Teacher Education (MACTE)—it is recognized as an interna-tional standard-setter of the highest level of excellence.

I believe that each child is born to be a learner, and that the full potential of each child is realized only through an ordered, planned, prepared and nurturing environ-ment. Authentic Montessori programs are places where children’s physical, intellec-tual, social, and spiritual needs are met. A Montessori education will transform your child into a lifelong learner -- it is truly edu-cation for life.

Munir Shivji is head of The Innova-tive School and executive director of The Institute of Montessori Education, both in Houston, TX. He manages the Texas Montessori Administrators Net-work Committee and serves on various national committees for the American Montessori Society.

Is your child a Thumb-Sucker?You should not be concerned about thumb-sucking until your child is six years old; however, if your child continues to suck his/her thumb, this issue will need to be ad-dressed. Did you know that thumb-sucking could affect the jaw bone? Jaw bones of children under eight years of age are espe-cially soft and malleable. Thumbs and fin-gers can move teeth and shape the bone. Continuous and forceful thumb-sucking makes the front teeth move and reshape the jaw bone. This causes the front teeth to flare out and tip upward and the lower front teeth to move inward. This, in turn, creates an “open bite”, which can result in speech abnormalities, chewing difficulties, poor tongue placement and an unattract-ive smile, if not addressed. Thumb-sucking may also cause your child’s teeth to be-come misaligned, causing a malocclusion. Tongue thrusting is usually an outcome of a thumb-sucking habit, as well.

It is very important to break this habit be-fore permanent teeth come in. This will al-low the teeth to erupt properly and the open bite will disappear. As a parent, you want what is best for your child. Together we can help your child dispel his/her thumb-sucking and tongue thrusting habits. Your orthodontist can accomplish this through the placement of a “Habit” or “Crib” appli-ance. The purpose of the habit appliance is to reprogram the tongue’s posture dur-ing swallowing and create a physical bar-rier between the thumb and the teeth. The habit appliance is temporarily placed in your child’s mouth for approximately 6-10 months.

Thumb-sucking is one of the many reasons why the American Association of Ortho-dontists and I recommend that your child’s first orthodontic check-up be no later than

seven years of age. The goals of orthodon-tic treatment are a good functional bite, and straight teeth with properly aligned jaws and tooth positioning. Many orthodontic problems are easier to correct if they are found early. It is important to prevent a po-tential problem from developing, intercept a developing problem, and guide the growth of the jaw bones.

Below is an actual patient who was treated in our office for her thumb-sucking habit with a “Habit” or “Crib” appliance.

I look forward to having you in my practice,

My Health

Baby walk is part of normal develop-ment. Although not all babies start walk-ing at the same age, children learn to walk when they are between 12 and 18 months old. When lying on their stom-achs, babies use their arms to push themselves up. They do many activities such as crawl and sit up and they will gradually try to stand.

It is important that babies wear shoes that allow feet to develop naturally. Walk-ing barefoot develops muscular strength and good toe gripping; hence, keeping a child without shoes in dry or warm plac-es is a good idea. Shoes should have good support at the front and back of the feet. Baby shoes shouldn’t have heels; they have to be securely fastened to the feet, flexible, and lightweight.

Dogi ShoesExpert tips for your child’s little feet!

Baby foot care

· Being barefoot is good for babies if they are in a dry, warm place.· Baby shoes must prevent slipping while running, standing or walking on tile or wood floors. · Baby shoes should be made of breathable materials such as textiles or leather, never plastic. · Baby shoes must be easy to care. · Shoes shouldn’t be too tight; you should be able to put them on and take them off easily. If they are too tight, they can cause foot malformation.· Shoes usually need to be replaced after three or four months due to fast feet growth at early ages.


My Health

1. A child who doesn’t have cavities in the primary teeth.

A child with dental cavities may be in pain and is unable to focus at school. He/she has more bacteria in their mouth, which may cause infections in other tissues or organs. He/she has an increased risk of dental cavities in permanent teeth.

2. A child whose permanent molars have erupted and are sealed.

The average age for the first permanent molars to erupt is 6 years old. It has been shown that sealing the chewing surface of the recently erupted molars reduces dental cavities in these teeth in up to 75%.

3. A child with healthy gums and other soft tissues.

Gums and other soft tissue in the child’s mouth must be light pink, with a thin contour around the teeth. Gums must not bleed when brushing the teeth.

4. A child who can breathe through the nose with adequate oxygenation.

Children must be able to breathe freely through the nose. Those who breathe through the mouth have dry lips, don’t sleep well, snore, and have red and inflamed gums.

5. A child with a symmetrical bite and an adequate temporomandibular articulation.

It has been shown that the temporomandibular articulation doesn’t develop properly in children with bite problems (upper arch teeth don’t fit well with lower arch teeth.)

6. A child with a symmetrical face where the upper maxilla and the lower maxilla grow in harmony.

Crossbites don’t allow face bones to grow symmetrically; therefore, the face is asymmetrical. Children do care about their look; it is an important factor in their self-esteem and wellbeing. 7. A child who can make sounds correctly.

For children to speak correctly, the tongue needs to move without restrictions. In some cases, the tongue is too close to the floor of the mouth and in other cases open bites don’t allow children to correctly pronounce certain words or sounds.

8. A child with fresh breath.

Dental cavities, gum disease, and a tongue that hasn’t been brushed may cause bad breath.

My School

According to Gandhi (2000), “Before teaching kids to read, we must teach them to love and make their imagination flourish.” For all those involved in the teaching-learning process at school, joining their students in the assimilation and learning of virtues or values is an important mission.

Patience is key. We cannot prepare students to build their dream world in the future if we don’t believe in them. It is then when teachers accomplish their aspiration: make their imagination flourish to achieve creative expression and knowledge, working toward an integral education to become a whole human being.

Values instilled and reinforced in a timely manner, contribute to the consciousness, growth, education and development of the person. Hence lessons, teaching strategies, resources, activities and dynamics should be proposed to create spaces to reflect, act and compromise in the classrooms. Teachers must abandon the role of instructors who only transmit knowledge and take the role of strategists who create learning situations.

Teachers must guide the students process of building knowledge. For that, they must be involved not only with the curriculum –which is important- but also with the knowledge-building process, with the development of skill to be used with the ability to create new relationships, and new knowledge from the knowledge acquired.

In education, we cannot be effective without being also affective. Caring for the students means, among other things, to believe in them, to have positive expectations about their possibilities, try to make them feel happy in the classroom, and respect each student learning style.

If your child refuses to travel by car for long hours, it might be because he ends up bored. Following are some option for family games:

1. I see… In this game you need to watch outside the car window and say a random color. For example, if you see something yellow, say “yellow” and all the others need to find out at what you were looking. Whoever guesses, plays next.

2. Who is this character? This is a well-known game. One of the players thinks of a famous person, in this case you will use a children’s character, let’s say Mickey Mouse, Barney or Peter Pan. The other players may ask up to 20 questions in order to find out who the character is, but the only answers allowed are “yes” or “no”. Whoever comes up with the correct answer wins the game.

3. The family in the next car. It’s all about making up a story about the people traveling in the car closest to yours. Each fictitious statement has to be connected to the previous one for the story to make sense.

4. Word game.You choose a subject, for example, the house. What’s in there? Multiple things, right? One of the players begins by saying one of those things, like “pot”, the next player picks the last letter of that word and lists another item, like “tub”. Whoever repeats an object loses.

En Familia

¡A jugar en familia!

Jugar en familia es la mejor manera de reforzar las relaciones entre los miembros del hogar. A través del juego expresamos emociones, sentimientos, afecto y fortalecemos los lazos de unión entre las personas que participan.Compartir y jugar con los hijos, por lo menos en un momento del día, es útil para favorecer la comunicación familiar; no es la cantidad de tiempo que se les brinde, sino la calidad de estos. Observando a nuestros niños jugar, podremos conocer sus habilidades, gustos, preferencias, capacidades y sentimientos.

Beneficios de jugar en familia:•El juego nos relaja, hace sentirnos libres, auténticos y espontáneos.•Favorece el encuentro, la unión familiar, la comunicación, la confianza y el afecto entre los miembros de la familia.•Ayuda construir una relación familiar sólida y duradera.•Desarrollamos la autoestima de nuestros hijos, ya que sentirán que como padres dedicamos tiempo para divertirnos juntos.

¿Qué actividades o juegos se pueden realizar en familia?Cualquier tipo de juego que le guste al niño, lo importante es que ambos disfruten de compartir el momento. Por ejemplo:

• Aprovechando el baño del niño, podemos jugar con él soplando burbujas y cantando juntos melodías.• Podemos jugar a las escondidas y abrazarlo cuando nos encuentre.• Cuando los niños jueguen con carritos, muñecas o la cocinita, participemos del juego y seamos como un niño más.• Jugar con disfraces, máscaras o a través de muñecos, para estimular la imaginación y la expresión de sentimientos entre los participantes.• Organicen un día de algún deporte que guste a la mayoría de miembros de la familia.• Los juegos de cooperación como armar entre todos un rompecabezas, resolver crucigramas o armar frases a partir de palabras en desorden.• Los juegos de mesa son una excelente oportunidad para compartir en familia, además de permitirle también aprender a competir. El ganar o perder ayudarán al niño en su desarrollo social.

Dedique un tiempo para jugar en familia, no sólo pasará un momento grato con sus hijos sino que encontrará momentos felices para compartir y esto dejará huellas importantes en cada uno de los integrantes.
