The Montessori Environment is the Classroom

You don’t have to own all of the Montessori materials out there to get started.

In fact, it’s often better not to overwhelm yourself with too many options.

First, you’ll need to set up your classroom space in a way that is conducive to learning and exploration.

This means creating an open floor plan with plenty of room for children to maneuver and move around freely.

Some key elements to include are child-sized tables and chairs, storage areas for materials, and plenty of natural light.

Next, focus on setting up the Montessori materials themselves in a way that promotes independence and self-directed learning.

Start by organizing the materials according to their level of difficulty, then arrange them in such a way so as not to distract or overwhelm the children using them.

And finally, choose high-quality materials that will stand up to repeated use.

With a little bit of planning and effort, you can create a Montessori environment that is both beautiful and functional.

And remember, the best way to learn how to set up a Montessori environment is to observe one in action.

So take some time to visit a local Montessori school or child care center to get a feel for how it all comes together.
