Support Ms. Ogurchak's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
If given these materials, my students will learn more about how to be an independent learner and solve problems in the real world. There is something to be said about how the entire universe is presented to the child in the very beginning and then broken down in to manageable pieces. I love how the Montessori method is not a prescribed curriculum in that it gives children the freedom to explore and learn that which interests them.
With these materials, students will make projects. Project based learning allows students to autonomously create artifacts that demonstrate mastery of concepts. Information is presented by the teacher in a lesson, but it is up to the learner to take the information and create something new. This requires some amazing higher-level thinking skills!
