On October 23rd, Tim Seldin was joined by Sara Suchman and Elizabeth Slade of the National Center for Montessori in the Public Sector; Montessori consultant and public school advocate, Ginny Riga; and Josie Zinninger, Founder and CoDirector of the Lakeland Montessori Charter Schools in Lakeland, Florida.
This time we explored the challenges of organizing and maintaing fully implemented elementary Montessori programs for ages 6 to 12 in public and charter schools. Among the topics that we considered were how to maintain authenticity in a culture that tends to be focused on state standards, the common core, and weekly lesson plans.
Each Thursday at 10 am EST (GMT -5) the Montessori Foundation hosts a free weekly Montessori Leadership Webinar.
