014: The Montessori Assistant Toolkit

Trillium Montessori Talks

Apr 19 2022 • 18 mins

When we talk about the Montessori classroom, we often talk about two groups: teachers and students. But there’s another key player in the classroom, someone whose role is vital to the success of teachers and students alike: the assistant! Even in the fast-paced classroom environment, it’s important that assistants be given the resources and opportunities to educate themselves on how best to interact with and nurture their students.

In this episode, we’re talking about our brand new resource for elementary assistants, The Montessori Assistant Toolkit. We’re explaining how this educational resource sets the entire classroom up for success and makes teachers’ lives easier. Plus, we’re sharing how you can access the toolkit–either for yourself or your assistants.

What’s in this episode:

  • Why it’s sometimes difficult for assistants to get the training they need
  • Why assistants need training in both the practical and socio-emotional aspects of managing a classroom
  • How educational resources for teachers and assistants set the entire classroom up for success
  • What’s included in this toolkit and what assistants will learn
  • How assistant education lays a foundation for long, healthy teacher-assistant relationships
  • Who this toolkit is for and how to gain access to it
