These research outings are very different from adult driven field trips: they are planned, organized, sometimes funded, by an individual child or a small group of children according to their specific interest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">A Going Out not only provides additional opportunities for intellectual stimulation, it also provides opportunities to think critically and make choices, as well as opportunities to extend Grace and Courtesy skills in the wider society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CREATIVITY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">The Montessori teacher works mindfully to create an environment where all areas of the curriculum are valued equally.

The mind is now able to reason, and building upon previous experiences, to abstract and imagine. In the elementary classroom, there is room for discussion and debate, personal reflexion and research.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Multi-age grouping provides an environment particularly suited to the development of the child&rsquo;s social and moral personality as he engages in all the complexities of relationships and friendships. The child becomes increasingly aware of the needs of his pairs, of his behavior and how it is perceived by others: he develops a sense of responsibility to himself and the world around her. The adult \u2013 the sensitive architect of an environment where everyone has his place \u2013 plays a significant role in how it is developed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><strong>MONTESSORI BEYOND TWELVE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Moving up from elementary to high school is not without challenge for children even within the regular education system.

Starting from their arrival in the Casa, and throughout their years in Montessori, the children have developed a sense of responsibility for their own learning, the habit of working beyond the limits for the joy of learning and for a real understanding. As they developed their independence, physical and intellectual, the children have gained valuable organizational skills that serve them well in their high school years and beyond.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0&hellip; <br \/> <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/6-12-ans\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":116785652,"featured_media":421,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-82","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":false,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/P8nFHg-1k","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/82","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/116785652"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=82"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/82\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1464,"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/82\/revisions\/1464"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/421"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/montessori312.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=82"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
