Seena tells you that her preschooler is attending a Montessori program; you pick up your niece from her preschool and wonder if it might also be enrolled in this same type of program
Your sister tells you that your niece's school is not a Montessori school. What are two differences you would notice?
What will be an ideal response?
In the Montessori program, learning is encouraged through self-directed exploration. The teachers would not be sitting in the front of a group of children giving them directions; instead, they would be choosing what they wanted to play with and how they would play. In contrast, at your niece's school, you might see children doing work sheets to practice numbers and letters.
