At Home #8: Zoom Sessions with Ms. Maria (April 22-24)
This week Ms. Maria started Zoom sessions for all The Montessori House students learning at home. On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (Apr 22-24), she read storybooks for younger and older students, and held three show & tell sessions (My Favorite Stuffed Animal). We had over 50 children participate in one or more sessions, with enthusiastic feedback from our Montessori House families.
Next week, Ms. Maria will introduce new material and read a few more books. Parents receive an email invitation to register for the session Ms. Maria offers (some have a limit on attendees).
Each week, we’ll post links to video recordings of select sessions. For this week:
- Ms. Maria reads three books most appropriate for younger children up to age 4 (older children may enjoy too).
Froggy Gets Dressed, Froggy Learns to Swim, Froggy’s Sleepover, all three by Jonathan London. - Ms. Maria reads two books most appropriate for children older than age 4 (the vocabulary and story’s are more complicated, but younger children may enjoy too).
Some Birthday by Patricia Polacco and Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathmann
