Day in the life of a Montessori Teacher (Guide)

- Transitioning from a traditional teacher to a guide at a Montessori-inspired school has been a journey! Here's a sneak peek into a day in my life as a teacher (aka guide at a Montessori-inspired school). I explain quite a bit about the differences and share some activities we are doing in the studio (aka classroom) to help build a strong classroom community!
Let's get SOCIAL!

This is super interesting, and I love watching people integrate ideas from other pedagogies. I see a few Montessori ideas going on here, but it seems very different from what I do as a Montessori elementary guide.
Hi! I just wanted to thank you for this video. I’m a college student studying childhood Ed and special education. Last semester I learned about Montessori learning and was interested in what it was like. Your video was very informative, thank you so much! If anyone has any advice for upcoming teachers I would love to hear it!
Thank you so much for watching Riley and I'm super glad you found this video helpful!! ❤
This is not Montessori
Thank you for sharing details of your day. Truly enjoyed watching you in the classroom after a brief period. Can’t wait to see more of your videos with similar tips and ideas for fellow teachers like myself. Hugs from Mumbai, India.
Glad you enjoyed this vlog, Arati! Thank you so much for watching!! What else would you like to see on the channel? ❤
Definitely misleading to what a real Montessori classroom is, and most importantly what the Method is. Beautiful classroom though, regards.
Eli... it's great to see your work. Your devotion is inspirational. Thanks for sharing it. 💗🥰
Oh my goodness thank you so much!!! Teaching and guiding really is my calling and I'm so blessed to be able to share this journey with all of you ❤❤❤ The past year has been crazy but your support keeps me going!
Love your classroom and your passion for the proffession! ❤️❤️❤️
Comments like these are a huge part of why I keep going! ❤ Thank you so much!! I hope you've had a wonderful school year (despite all the things that have happened around the world. Gaah!! It's been such a crazy crazy few years!)
I am not trying to be rude, but rather informative to others. Your video clearly states you are a Montessori guide. I am studying Montessori education and completing the AMI 0-3 Assistants to Infancy program. I am sure you are a great teacher, but this is NOT Montessori. This is definitely misleading to others. This is not what a Montessori classroom looks like and this is not what Montessori materials look like. You can be Montessori-inspired, there is nothing wrong with that, but this misleads people who are looking for an authentic Montessori environment. Maria Montessori had very specific and very detailed guidelines for how a classroom should be and how the materials must be. Look up what a Montessori classroom looks like and you will see that this looks just like a traditional classroom. Again, nothing inherently wrong with that, but it will confuse people who are wanting to send their children to a certified Montessori classroom (AMI or AMS for example) and they get charged a lot of money for what they think is a Montessori experience when it actually is not at all.
Thank you for sharing these thoughts. I know it may seem nit picky to others but I am a primary( children’s house 3-6) guide and feel myself feeling a bit territorial over people throwing the word “Montessori” around when we work extremely hard to maintain a very carefully curated environment and pedagogy for our students. I can appreciate her saying inspired but I still don’t see anything Montessori about her approach or environment. I even see her using a sticker reward system when that is something we absolutely do not do In Montessori.
We are studying trees and that is a cool art project for my preschoolers to complete upon our nature walk. Gluing leaves to a tree. Also we have been counting to 10 and I was going to do the cup stacking next week.
Awesome!! Just in time for fall 🍂 Oh and cup stacking is such a fun activity!!
Hi...it's my first time coming across your channel and I must say I love it! I think what you're doing is amazing 💗😍 You bring so much energy and passion in this video that it makes me wanna jump out of bed with a smile on my face😄
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for your kind words Jerrica!! 🥰😘 Your support means the world! Honestly it's all just me loving what I do and I'm glad that spills out and resonates with others 💖 Do you teach too?
@@elizabethmarcelena Yes I do🥰🥰 5 and 6 year olds. The best decision I've made in life😍💗Taking a break for now and terribly missing the classroom environment. So apart from learning, your videos also fill that emptiness am feeling being away from the kids❤️❤️
Hola Ely😉 excelentes ideas!!! Gracias por compartir. Insisto....tu salón me encanta!!🤩 Saludos🇲🇽🙋
Thank you as always for the support, Aby!! 💖 Is there anything you'd like to see next on the vlog?
Yaay! I'm so happy to see you back in the classroom! And so excited to see a Montessori teacher in action. Have an amazing week!
Aww thank you so much, Ms. B!! Do you teach too?
She is not a Montessori teacher nor is her class or approach. Nice video though.
Could you clarify? I hear you calling this your studio, where are the Montessori curriculum materials kept and at what point in the work cycle do children have access to them?
Hello, I've been subscribed for a while, but I didn't know you were Montessori. This is my first year at a guide and I'm in a public school. I would love to see more content.
Hi, Kristal! Thank you so much for watching!! ❤ I moved to a new school this year they lean heavily towards the Montessori method, with some Socratic method for our discussions. What would you like to see on the channel next?
@@elizabethmarcelena do you happen to work for Acton? I’m starting with them and our upper school uses Socratic approaches and they call the classes studios. But our lower schools are actually Montessori with Montessori materials and trained teachers. Just curious to how the transition is going and what you all do that is Montessori. Thanks for the content.
Out here trying to find the link to that curriculum..
How much could the hourly rate be if I have my certification please?
Hi, love your studio. Can u show better your part of the studio where you have the helpin hands poster and the weather chart.
It is an awesome class and school. Do you have your sons with you? In this school?
Love from Argentina,
Miss Miriam, The colorful teacher.
Hi Miss Miriam! Thanks so much for watching ❤ This is noted! I don't have my sons with me in the new school. Have classes started for you in Argentina?
@@elizabethmarcelena Hi, thanks for answer. Here in ARGENTINA the school year strats in MARCH and ends in December and teachers go back in February before the school year starts.
kisses,
Miss Miriam
Oh cool! It's always amazing to learn how fellow educators from other countries do things! How has the school year been for you?
@@elizabethmarcelena this year has bueen tough cause we start virrual then at schoo, face to face then we were cooped up, then hybrid and now face to face at school, luckily. But super tough.but we are surviving.
Aww I totally get you. The past year has been super crazy. I hope this year will be much better for you and your students! What grade do you teach?
This is very interesting are you at a traditional Montessori or a integrated Montessori?
Hello! Acton Academy leans towards the Montessori method, but it is not a traditional Montessori school. We also use other teaching methods along with a lot of project-based learning ❤
Super early!
Thanks so much for watching, Melody!! Your support means the world 💖 Do you teach too?
How to apply online job in it
Cool hat and u got this, young teacher lady. 🤗🤗🤗🤗😎😎😎😃😃😃
Thank you so much for watching!! ❤️
@@elizabethmarcelena anytime, Elizabeth. 😃😃😃😃😉😉😉😉😉
Interesting Montessori classroom.
Hi Elizabeth! Thanks for sharing your story with us. I always look forward to your videos! I just wanted to leave a gentle note that the word tribe is an outdated and racially sensitive term. Many Indigenous/African communities consider it a derogatory term as in the West it's often synonymous with being primitive and "savage." It is a powerful word used as a tool to drive colonialism and cause harm. There is lots of literature online about why this is important and other words to use instead :) Thanks again!
Thank you so much for the heads up!! I'll make sure to read up on this ❤❤❤
Are u interested in online teaching for kids?
Hi, Lina! I taught online last year and it was an amazing experience but my heart truly lies inside the classroom ❤ Do you teach as well?
@@elizabethmarcelena no, I am not a teacher. I'm looking for teachers. I can find students.
Why are they called heroes
Hi John! One of the frameworks that Acton Academy puts emphasis on is The Hero's Journey. At Acton, every child is on a hero’s journey to change the world. It’s important to note that we aren’t talking about “superheroes”. Our definition of a hero is an ordinary person who gets back up after falling down, someone who takes responsibility rather than blaming others when things get hard, and who shares their inner gifts to meet the needs around them ❤️
