Yes I know what you mean.

I struggle so much too I’m so done

That could have lots of reasons. But remember! Choose your battles. Sometimes we can talk to them later. I am from a household like that. 4 boys 1 mom. I was angry a lot. Because I didn't feel seen. And I felt my mom was just disciplining me all the time. I know it looks you don't have time, but eventually it will work in your favor. Because your connection gets better and they will listen Because you listen to them.

I love that thought

Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy our videos help you

A great place to start when they don't listen is to change your approach in speaking to them. Instead of ordering them to do something try to explain why you need them to do something.

Its a fabulous book. About 20-25 children in one room

Thank you so much 😊

Our children are constantly amazing us. If you watch him closely you will learn so much about what he is good at and how you can challenge him

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching.

I know how that feels.... how old is your son? Is there anyway to teach some activities to use independently?

I will try my best

I do believe we have to take a similar approach. whereby we develop relationships with them and help them towards self-discipline. However, my area of expertise is early childhood

Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your situation. Working with 4-year-olds, especially in a new school environment, can indeed be a challenging yet rewarding experience. It's completely understandable to feel a bit overwhelmed, especially if this is your first time encountering such energetic behavior. In the Montessori approach, we focus on guiding behavior through understanding and respect. A key aspect is to observe the children closely to understand their needs and interests. This helps in creating an environment that naturally encourages positive behavior. For instance, having a variety of engaging and age-appropriate activities can help channel their energy constructively. Also, establishing a consistent routine is crucial. Children thrive on predictability, and a well-structured day can provide them with a sense of security and order. Clear and consistent boundaries, communicated in a gentle yet firm manner, are also important. Remember, it's about guiding rather than controlling. Additionally, positive reinforcement can work wonders. Acknowledging and praising good behavior often encourages more of the same. Lastly, patience is key. Building a new classroom culture takes time, and your calm and persistent efforts will gradually shape the environment. You're doing an important job, and it's okay to seek help and advice. Don't hesitate to reach out to more experienced colleagues or mentors for support. Remember, every educator has been in a similar position at some point, and it's through these challenges that we grow and learn the most. Keep up the great work, and feel free to share your progress or any further questions you might have. Best of luck on your journey with these wonderful kids!

Thank you for sharing your experience as an English teacher working with Vietnamese-speaking children. The challenge of language barriers in classroom discipline is a common one, and it's commendable that you're seeking effective ways to address it. One approach could be to incorporate visual aids and non-verbal cues into your discipline methods. Children often respond well to visual signals, which can transcend language barriers. Additionally, learning some key phrases in Vietnamese, especially those related to classroom management and positive reinforcement, could significantly improve your communication with them. Another important aspect is building a connection with your students. When children feel understood and respected, they're more likely to respond positively. This can be achieved through patience, consistent behavior, and demonstrating genuine interest in their culture and language. If possible, seeking the assistance of a bilingual assistant or using translation tools during key communication moments might also be beneficial. Remember, discipline in Montessori is as much about guidance and understanding as it is about setting boundaries. Please keep in mind that this process takes time, and the effort you're putting into overcoming these challenges is making a positive impact. Your dedication to understanding and adapting to the needs of your students is truly admirable. 🥰

Dealing with sibling squabbles as a single parent can be tough, but there are ways to handle them in a Montessori-inspired manner that promotes harmony and teaches important life skills. One approach is to encourage open communication and problem-solving. Maybe you could gather your kids for a chat when things calm down, giving each one a chance to share how they feel. For example, if they're arguing over a toy, you might say, "Let's all take turns explaining why we want to play with the toy." This helps them learn to express themselves respectfully and understand each other's perspectives. Then, you can guide them to brainstorm solutions together. Encourage them to come up with ideas like taking turns with the toy or finding a different activity they can enjoy together. You could suggest, "What do you think about playing a game together instead?" This empowers them to find solutions that work for everyone, teaching cooperation and problem-solving along the way. Finally, remember to praise them when they handle conflicts peacefully. Acknowledge their efforts to communicate calmly and work together, like saying, "I'm proud of how you talked it out and found a solution together." Positive reinforcement helps reinforce good behavior and encourages them to continue using these skills in the future. By approaching sibling conflicts in this way, you're not only addressing the immediate issue but also laying the foundation for strong communication, empathy, and cooperation in your family.

Montessori schools help children to develop strength and interest in all subjects. They are not forced to learn in conventional ways through which they may not feel successful. In this way, they have the ability to venture into any field they choose.

@@SunshineTeachersTraining thanks for replying

Glad you like it. Do subscribe and share our videos :)

Yes i have share it with my freinds

Thanks a lot We are based in Indonesia

And If we give children 5 minutes for stopping working . What can children know about the time with 5 minutes? Will we set up a ring or ask them by the words?

That is a good approach

You can ask them to come to the circle.

Model patience and kindness

We try and keep instructions simple or even modelling and showing them is very helpful

It depends on many different factors - location, country, abilities etc

@@SunshineTeachersTraining i am in kenya and i want to pursue diploma.. how much is it

It would be our pleasure to work with you and help you out. Please click this link and send us your inquiry and someone from our team will get back to you as soon as possible. sunshineteacherstraining.id/about-us/contact/

Yes dear Master Trainner...i have share your all the vedios with my freinds

Thanks for watching.

Hi Jacinta... I am not sure I understand your question.

Was your child hungry at this point? Maybe make sure all snacks and meals are also eaten at the table. Try to help the child absorb that meal times are at the table

You can stay with them at the table.

I will try. and share some videos about this. soon

"Thank you for your inquiry! In our Montessori environment, we typically don't paint the walls directly. Instead, we focus on creating reproductions of famous artworks. This approach allows us to introduce children to the world of art through renowned masterpieces, fostering an appreciation for art history and diverse artistic styles. These reproductions often serve as visual aids and educational tools, inspiring creativity and discussion among the children. If you have any specific questions about the reproductions or would like more information on how we incorporate famous artworks into our Montessori environment, please feel free to ask. We're here to help!

@@SunshineTeachersTraining Thank you, mam. I searched for pictures related to art and there are so many of them. It would be very helpful if you could suggest a few names. We are following the Montessori methodology till the elementary level (3 years to 9 years) of the age group. So selecting pictures related to art form is getting confusing. Looking forward to your response. Thank you. 🙂

This is a stage she is going through. We have a video coming out next Sunday that explains why. they do this.

It can be so challenging and upsetting - I understand where you are coming from. perhaps start by allowing your child to make some decisions and giving him a chance to feel in control too.

She's is 21 months

It would be a good idea to offer her activities that allow her to throw things because she enjoys doing this.

Yes children under 2 love to throw.

How old is he?

Give him some choices. Allow him tto help you prepare the fruit

I am sorry. I do not understand this question :)

@@SunshineTeachersTraining Hello 🤭 Sorry, you said that we should drink a coffe, I guess it was just a joke. Thanks for your interesting videos. I'm really thankful.

I would like two suggest for you to observe and see what her interests are and try and give her activities that match this. Also... practical life activities give a lot of satisfaction to children... cleaning, cooking etc

Most definitely... I totally agree. And we all need to follow rules for sure... but we want wan our children to follow rules out of love... not fear

@@SunshineTeachersTraining exactly, children need to understand why do they have to submit to rules so in their future they would make a logical decision before they submit to an order or a rule, that remind me of hoax caller in McDonald's and what happened to poor girls who submitted to rules that trapped them to sexual assault (watch don't pick up the phone in Netflix)

We can prepare the child for survival through Love not Fear, approaching the difficult world with compassion.

@@bridgeskylive ...that not a real world.

I am sorry you feel that way. Thanks for the feedback

I am sorry you feel that way. Thanks for the feedback

I disagree and think she is taking time to spell out the steps we need to know
