I teach in a public Montessori school in an urban setting. My students are bussed in from all over the city, meaning we have a wide mix of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. I have 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade children in about equal numbers. We work together to create a learning environment that feels like a family, with older children acting as guides and mentors for the younger ones. Children stay with me for all three grades, so they get a chance to grow and learn together, become leaders, then move on to new challenges in the 4th - 6th grade classes.
