Podcasts about Maria Montessori

Episode #351 // I came across a great quote recently, thanks to one of the leaders in our inner circle, Natasha Read. It was a quote from Maria Montessori, who devised the Montessori method of teaching.The method focuses on the development of a child's inherent initiative and ability, allowing them to develop at their own pace. It emphasises growth through independence and experimentation. The quote is a blinder… “Everything you do for me, you take from me!” It hit me like a pie in the face: I immediately thought of the principle of working at level, which is a critical part of the No Bullsh!t Leadership framework.There are lots of good reasons to not over function for the people you lead, and this might just be the most compelling of those reasons. When you do your people's work, you're not saving them…you're stunting their growth. In this episode, I'm going to go into the working at level principles in the sort of depth that I normally reserve for our Leadership Beyond the Theory cohorts. I've also put together a great PDF resource to accompany this episode, 5 Rules for Leading Without Over-Functioning: A Leader's Guide to Working at the Right Level which you can download here https://www.yourceomentor.com/episode351. Enjoy! ————————

Great leadership isn't about micromanaging—it's about empowering others to thrive. In today's episode, Dr. Killeen shares a powerful insight from Maria Montessori: true success is when things run smoothly without you. Whether in your dental practice or everyday life, building trust, creating strong systems, and stepping back can lead to a more confident, capable team. Tune in to learn why letting go might just be the best leadership move you make.

"Il sonno è il momento in cui il corpo cresce e la mente si riposa" così Maria Montessori aveva già intuito quello che la ricerca ha poi dimostrato. Il sonno è fondamentale sempre, ma soprattutto nello sviluppo cognitivo dei bambini. A Obiettivo Salute risveglio il prof. Oliviero Bruni, responsabile del centro del sonno per l'età evolutiva dell'università di Roma La Sapienza e Ordinario di Neuropsichiatria infantile.

In this episode of Blooming Curious, we welcome Alex Peterson, a dedicated Montessori teacher who shares her insights and experience in a Montessori classroom online as @missnearingsmontessori. Alex reveals the creative teaching strategies, hands-on activities, and key differences between Montessori and traditional education methods. She discusses the unique structure of Montessori classrooms, the importance of preparing the environment, and the benefits of mixed-age learning.

Join us for an enlightening conversation that highlights the beauty and effectiveness of Montessori education.

"Education wasn't for certain people." In this conversation, Phil and Professor Colin Beard delve into the history and evolution of experiential learning, exploring its prehistory and the cognitive capacities that have shaped human learning. They discuss the limitations of traditional educational models and the importance of recognizing the contributions of lesser-known figures in education, such as Maria Montessori and Marina Ewald. The conversation culminates in the introduction of the Holistic Experiential Learning Model (HELM), emphasizing the need for a more complex understanding of learning that incorporates various human capacities.   Humans have been learning throughout their entire existence. The evolution of learning capacities spans millions of years. Traditional educational models often overlook essential cognitive functions. Maria Montessori's contributions to education are significant yet underrecognized. The complexity of learning requires a holistic approach. Experiential learning should utilize all human capacities. Simplicity in educational models can lead to limitations. The importance of questioning in the learning process is paramount. Silenced voices in education highlight systemic biases. The Holistic Experiential Learning Model (HELM) offers a new perspective on learning.

Depuis quelques années apparaissent de nombreux produits de toutes sortes avec le label Montessori : des jeux, des livres, des cahiers, des écoles, des activités, des vidéos, des formations, etc... et parfois tout cela est bien éloigné de la pédagogie scientifique créée par Maria Montessori. On a aussi vu récemment une nouvelle tendance apparaître sur les réseaux sociaux : ghettossori. Initialement portée par des mères de famille, qui parodient une méthode éducative dite "à la montessori", dans l'objectif de dédramatiser et de déculpabiliser certaines pratiques éducatives, ces contenus ont dernièrement connu un glissement vers la banalisation des violences dans l'éducation des enfants.Tous ces phénomènes sont la preuve que la pédagogie Montessori est encore mal comprise et sujette à des interprétations erronées.Sylvie d'Esclaibes a donc tenté de vous partager les grandes valeurs et les grands principes que Maria Montessori a développé aux travers de ses observations des enfants. Une pédagogie au service des enfants, loin des clichés et de la violence qui persiste encore tristement dans l'éducation.Hébergé par Ausha.

Mandy Lobaugh took a leap of faith 16 years ago and opened Creative Minds, a school modeled on Maria Montessori's method of learning where children are encouraged to learn in their own way, in their own time. Assisted by BFF (and her devoted mom) Judy Hunter, Mandy has created a supportive "family" among staff and students where learning comes naturally.

Ever count using your fingers as an adult? Ever struggle to articulate an idea until you sketch it out on a whiteboard? Ever discuss 'stakeholder relationships' during lunch by sliding around the table condiments? Ever moved Lego objects around to scenario test project implementation? Ever considered how ‘playing around' with objects helps you ‘play around' with ideas? Maybe we've overlooked that these everyday gestures highlight our fundamental human tendency to think with our body and think with things. If your organisation is making decisions that affect corporate budgets in the multi-millions and multi-billions, wouldn't

In this episode, we chatted with Yvette Standberry, former Head of Innovation at Mathematica, about her journey as a Catalyst leader. Yvette shares how her commitment to "learning by doing" shaped her success. She shared the importance of recognizing patterns across systems to create efficiencies and how learning to tell compelling stories helps bring stakeholders on board at the right time. She emphasizes the importance of empowering others in the change process, cautioning that Catalysts can burn out if they try to carry all the weight themselves. Her wisdom reminds us that it's never "all about me"—true change happens when we treat stakeholders like customers, listening deeply to their needs and co-creating the future with them. For one of her favorite inspirational Catalysts, Yvette chose Maria Montessori, because she loves that inter-age group focused, learning by doing and through peers – all of which she is building into her next endeavor.

How do childhood experiences mold our adult lives? Byron Ricks, Josh Wambrodt and Brandon Ricks invite you to explore this intriguing question on the Father Factor Podcast. Together, we promise to uncover the significant influence of childhood enablement on adulthood, featuring insights from Erik Erikson and Maria Montessori. Listen as we share personal stories, like how structured meal plans transformed our picky eaters into culinary adventurers, ready to embrace life's many flavors and challenges.As the conversation unfolds, we tackle the thorny issue of entitlement, dissecting its effects on personal relationships and society. Byron recounts an anecdote about dating someone with restricted food preferences, serving as a launching pad to examine parenting styles that cater excessively to children's whims. Through this lens, we discuss how societal attitudes towards challenges can inadvertently foster a sense of entitlement and leave individuals unprepared for adult responsibilities. By connecting these threads to everyday occurrences like road rage, we reveal the hidden complexities behind adult reactions when expectations fall short.In the final chapters, we delve into the role of parental enablement in shaping behavior. Through mentoring tales and school incidents, we highlight the consequences of a lack of boundaries and the cultural shift away from communal child-rearing practices. The episode concludes with a call to action for parents to reflect on their influence, stressing the importance of raising independent, responsible adults. We urge fathers to engage with us on our online platforms, reinforcing their indispensable role in their children's lives and inviting them to join the conversation with their unique insights.Support the show Keep in touch.Email: Brm2@fatherfactorpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram Like us on Facebookhttps://www.amazon.com/Searching-Dad-Effects-Fatherless-Overcome/dp/1934812129

Hello, listeners! It's time for a new Brave Story.

In her 1936 book, The Secret of Childhood, Maria Montessori writes that “We must wake up to the great reality that children have a psychic life whose delicate manifestations escape notice and whose pattern of activity can be unconsciously disrupted by adults.” The approach to education that Montessori established sought to remove such unnecessary disruptions while cultivating a fruitful environment wherein children could discover the world, grow toward the maturation of their God-given capacities, and experience the wonder and responsibility of real freedom. Montessori schools have since been established all across the United States and indeed across the world, including here in my own hometown of South Bend, Indiana. The conversation on our episode today will focus on one such school, St. Joseph Montessori, which is in fact a Catholic Montessori school for children ages 2.5 to 6. My guest is Dr. Elizabeth Capdevielle, who is a board member of St. Joseph Montessori, and who, as a trained Montessori educator, will help us learn more about the Montessori approach, the anthropological underpinnings of this education, and the correspondence of Montessori education to a Catholic vision of the world and the human person.In addition to serving on the board at St. Joseph Montessori, Beth is an assistant teaching professor at the University of Notre Dame, where she teaches in the University Writing Program. Follow-up Resources:St. Joseph Montessori, South Bend, IN“Joy and Parenting,” by Claire Fyrvquist, Co-founder of St. Joseph Montessori, journal article in Church Life JournalThe Secret of Childhood, by Maria MontessoriThe Absorbent Mind: A Classic Education and Child Development for Educators and Parents, by Maria Montessori“Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, with Mary Mirrione,” podcast episode via Church Life TodayThe episode is sponsored by Saints Mary's Press, smp.org/bibles. Church Life Today is a partnership between the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame and OSV Podcasts from Our Sunday Visitor.

Les périodes sensibles de l'enfant ont été particulièrement mises en lumière par Maria Montessori au début du 20ème siècle. Mais d'autres penseurs sur le développement de l'enfant les ont évoquées. Ces périodes sensibles sont des fenêtres d'opportunité où le développement de certaines compétences se fait de manière optimale. En respectant ces moments et en offrant un environnement adapté, les adultes peuvent permettre aux enfants de développer pleinement leurs compétences et de s'épanouir dans leurs apprentissages tout en respectant l'enfant dans son individualité. L'enfant va également développer une grande confiance en l'adulte qui saura proposer un environnement et des activités qui répondent à ses besoins propres. C'est ainsi que vous pourrez assurer le développement harmonieux de l'enfant afin qu'ils deviennent un adulte épanoui et heureux. Hébergé par Ausha.

Maria Montessori a toujours évoqué l'importance de l'environnement dans lequel l'enfant va évoluer depuis la naissance et pour toute sa vie. Cet environnement pour l'enfant jeune pendant toute sa scolarité va être préparé par l'adulte avec le plus grand soin afin de répondre à tous les besoins de l'enfant au fur et à mesure de sa croissance.En effet, c'est dans l'environnement que l'enfant va puiser tout ce dont il a besoin pour se construire, pour apprendre et pour se lier avec les autres. L'adulte fait d'ailleurs partie de cet environnement. A la maison, c'est la même chose, c'est grâce à l'environnement préparé par les adultes présents que l'enfant va construire sa personnalité et développer des qualités fondamentales comme l'autonomie, la confiance en soi, et aussi pouvoir vivre sans stress et dans l'apaisement. Pour les adultes, c'est exactement la même chose, on a beaucoup de plaisir à vivre dans un espace propre et bien rangé plutôt que dans un lieu où règnent le désordre et la saleté. Comment faire pour que l'environnement soit source d'apaisement, de sérénité pour tous ? Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

How does Montessori practice embed sustainability? Montessori Consultant Sarah Cummins explains that social development sits alongside academic learning, children are supported in building a sense of ownership of their community and environmental stewardship is embedded early on. We also discuss some misconceptions around Montessori practice as well as how we can support higher education students in becoming passionate educators and sustainably minded advocates for the planet.

(01:20) Afgelopen maand trok de Verenigde Staten een rode lijn: geen aanval op Rafah. Toch ging Israël deze week in de aanval. Het is een ontwikkeling die naadloos past in de geschiedenis van de diplomatieke ‘rode lijn', aldus historicus Ivo van de Wijdeven. Hij is te gast. (13:39) Sinds deze week is de film 'Maria Montessori' in de bioscoop. Daarin wordt een onderbelicht deel van haar leven getoond: wat deed ze voor ze haar revolutionaire onderwijsmethode ontwikkelde?

Understanding how to facilitate, organize, and prepare an environment that fosters student choice is one of the most challenging aspects of being a Montessori Elementary teacher. Educators who follow the Montessori approach know that Maria Montessori placed a lot of emphasis on the idea of “choice,” and while the notion of choice is universally celebrated and held sacred for young children up until the age of 6 (such as in other Montessori environments or in play-based preschools), this idea sometimes falls to the wayside when children enter into elementary and adolescent programs. In today's episode, Letty Rising explains that there are different levels of choice, and that students can have choice in their work and still develop the skills needed to master standards.What's in this episode:What different levels of choice look like in the Elementary classroomFacilitating an environment that allows the opportunity for children to choose their workBuilding common core standards around a child's interestSupporting children who struggle with independence and making choicesWhen teacher choice and child choice come into playEnsuring students are progressing in key areas by using tools for accountabilityFor full show notes, resources, links and to download the transcript, visit:https://www.trilliummontessori.org/Resources Mentioned in This Episode:N/AConnect With UsVisit our websiteFollow us on InstagramConnect with us on Facebook

✍️NOUVEAU : je lance un sondage pour mieux vous connaitre, aidez-moi à collecter le plus grand nombre de réponses : https://pnhxjl7nzh2.typeform.com/to/maw8xoC8L'autonomie est une des capacités les plus importantes à acquérir pour les enfants et cela dès le plus jeune âge. En apprenant à faire les choses par eux-mêmes, les enfants développent une confiance en leurs capacités, ce qui est essentiel pour leur croissance émotionnelle et sociale. L'autonomie enseigne aux enfants à être responsables de leurs actions et de leurs choix. Cela les aide à comprendre les conséquences de leurs actions et à prendre des décisions réfléchies. En devenant autonomes, les enfants acquièrent une plus grande indépendance, ce qui favorise leur développement personnel et les prépare à devenir des adultes capables de fonctionner de manière autonome dans la société. L'autonomie est donc indispensable pour être un adulte heureux et confiant en ses capacités. Cette autonomie s'acquiert dès tout petit par la mise en place d'un environnement préparé, par une posture de l'adulte adaptée et la proposition d'un certain nombre d'activités. "Aide-moi à faire seul" est une phrase dite par Maria Montessori et donc un des premiers objectifs de notre pédagogie. J'ai donc décidé de vous transmettre le plus d'éléments possibles afin de vous permettre de développer cette autonomie dans ce premier épisode pour les enfants de 0 à 4 ans et dans un second épisode pour les plus âgés.

"Raise your eyes and look about; they all gather and come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters in the arms of their nurses.  Then you shall be radiant at what you see, your heart shall throb and overflow, for the riches of the sea shall be emptied out before you, the wealth of nations shall be brought to you."  Isaiah 60: 4-5    Submit a Podcast Listener Question HERE!     Epiphany is 117 years since Maria Montessori dedicated a space specifically for the poor children of San Lorenzo which began her lifelong work of discovering the child and their absorbent minds.    Sherry Mock joins us today to tell us the spirit filled story of that beautiful Epiphany.  Sherry Mock lives in Texas with her husband.  She has been trained as a Montessori guide and in all three levels of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.  She is a wife, mother, grandmother, Godmother, Bible teacher, and church and community volunteer.      Further Reading:    2020 The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Journal  The Child in the Church by Maria Montessori  Other Episode with Sherry:    Episode 52: Practical Life with Sherry Mock    AUDIOBOOK:    Audiobook – Now Available on Audible  CGSUSA is excited to offer you the audio version of The Religious Potential of the Child – 3rd Edition by Sofia Cavalletti, read by Rebekah Rojcewicz!  The Religious Potential of the Child is not a “how-to” book, complete with lesson plans and material ideas.

In the aftermath of the atrocities of WWII, Maria Montessori gave a speech. Given the current state of the world, especially with the recent horrific attack on Israel -- really on all civilized human beings -- her talk is well worth hearing. "... the monster does not come to life all of a sudden. It is not created in one moment, in one hour, in one week, even in one year."

The methods of Maria Montessori aim to help young people take charge of their learning at a younger age. Jesse McCarthy, founder of MontessoriEducation.com, believes those methods prepare young people to thrive and build civil society. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
