Montessori Mindset, Part 1: in Theory & Practice
Hi, everybody! I had an amazing conversation with a Montessori school founder named Jennifer and her son Craig that I'm super duper excited to share with you!
I divided our discussion into 3 parts, and this first part covers their backgrounds, our interpretations of Progressive Parenting, the basics of the Montessori Method, and Craig's experience as a student of it.
In the next part, we'll talk about his transition to other educational styles, his family's diverse interests, Growth Mindset, and how his mom's bellydancing influenced her Body Image.
In the last part, we mainly delve into his unconventional Masculinity, and the concept of Media Literacy as Critical Thinking, along with a bit of advice and a few surprises to shake things up!
I loved this experience so much, so I hope you enjoy listening to it, and find it beneficial! :DLove, T.J.
P.S. Jennifer's school (that Craig attended) is called The Children's Place, and it's located in Torrance, CA, if you're interested in looking further into it, or supporting them in any way. ♥️
