That is awesome you are looking to add some Montessori elements to your classroom! They complete them during the recess and I will sit with them. I make sure they choose the correct "How to stop it from happening again" option, because sometimes they truly don't know which one to choose. I keep the reflection sheets in envelopes in my room. It helps me keep track of behaviors. I haven't sent it home, but we do use a way to send photos to the families, so I could always take a picture to show the parents. That is awesome you did the lemon juice invisible ink! I have always wanted to try that one!

Thank you for answering my questions and showing us how your classroom runs. I love watching practicing teachers and getting ideas from things that work well in their spaces.

Thank you!

Thank you for saying that! I hope it is helpful!

Thank you! I actually didn't end up getting to organizing the classroom library that day, since I was only there for about an hour. It is one of those task I keep putting off, but I will be doing that next week for sure!

I think this comment is hilarious! I did show a lot of the floor and I didn't even realize! Thanks for pointing that out! Stay tuned with the videos to see more of my classroom! :)

Thank you so much! I think geometry is one of the coolest things our students learn because geometry is all around us!

Thanks! I really like the way it keeps the cards organized!

Thanks! I do not teach year round, but I love thinking about the new school year at the end of the previous school year! Yes, rearranging shelves with the students is so much fun!

I am actually having a free online talk on Saturday, July 27th all about the scope and sequence for lower elementary, if you can join! Visit partsofthelanguage.com and then the top banner should be about the scope and sequence talk and you can learn more there!

Aw that is so amazing! I am glad to hear it!

I have to see where the new student is in reading, so they read a few different Flyleaf Publishing books to me. All students: Each day they read the book that they are on and complete one page of the reading work packet. Typically, there are four pages, but as the books/work gets more challenging, there are five days. The more challenging work actually lists the Day 1, Day 2, etc. on the pages, but the first set of books do not, so the students know to complete one page a day. If they do not have it all complete by Friday, they know they need to complete it. The next week, they start the next book in the series.

I can have up to 18-24 students, but this year I now have 14. I started the year with 13 and then it went to 12 and now it is up to 14.

Thank you! Yes, I feel the same way! That is why I try and create the resources and information for lower elementary!

Thank you! I actually just had to take my map down so they can paint the room and I put it on a blue painted board and now it looks even better!

Hi! Almost all the works on the shelves are materials from Montessori companies. There are command cards (activity cards) for each area. Most of those came from the disk from my training. I have some free cards I have made if you visit montessori-resources.teachery.co/montessori-resources . Thank you!

Your classroom is amazing!

Hi! It is Montessori, so I follow the Montessori Method, which follows Scope and Sequences. I made my own Scope and Sequence for Lower Elementary, but since it was a fluke that I was teaching Early Childhood/Kindergarten, I do not have my own scope and sequence for that. I hope that answers you question! Thanks.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! Early Childhood is amazing! I will definitely miss the pink tower. The students absorb so much during 3-6 and progress so fast! Setting up the environment is one of the best parts of teaching Montessori! Best wishes for a great school year!

You're welcome! I got them on Amazon.

Thank you!!

Thanks!!!

Thanks! Playing the piano is one of my favorite hobbies! I am reading "Cartas Cruzadas", in English it is "I Am the Messenger" by Markus Zusak. It is my favorite book!

@@partsofthelanguagellc will have to check out the book!!!!

Thank you!
