does anybody here use montessori

just wondered how many out there use montessori for home school.

 

I use some What are you wondering about? Do you homeschool? Are you considering homeschooling?

We use this most in our arts/crafts and what we refer to as "home skills." Most of this is done in the kitchen with cooking & baking, but a little does carry through into other subjects.

My son does not do very well with this type of learning, so we school my daughter with more Montessori than him. She prefers the hands-on and teacher-stands-back style learning, and it suits her well. As she gets older (she's in 1st grade this year) it is becoming tougher to teach her some subjects this way, but we're doing as much as we can this way for her.
love,
mom
