In Montessori education, each part of speech is introduced using a unique symbol as a language tool. These symbols are called Montessori grammar symbols. The symbols help a child understand a concept practically and avoid confusion. They also help a child decode and code sentences more clearly.
To celebrate Maria Montessori week, lower elementary students created a model showing each of the grammar symbols! The nine different symbols represent the noun, verb, pronoun, adverb, article, adjective, conjunction, preposition and interjection.

Presentation skills and speaking in front of a group are practiced regularly and from a young age in our classrooms. In casa, children will share a reader, a personal story or their timeline at circle time with their classmates. In lower elementary, the children often present project work and creative writing pieces to the group. In upper elementary, they give lessons, share their research and Science Fair projects, lead school events and assemblies and in grade 6 each graduate writes and shares their very own speech at our graduation ceremony. With plenty of opportunities and a supportive environment, students develop their public speaking skills and become confident and comfortable sharing in front of a group.

The extremely cold temperatures could not stop our grade 3-6 students from hitting the slopes @skidagmar! Two weeks in row, they had a blast and many learned to ski for the very first time. Awesome!
