@missnearingsmontessori: This is one of those case by case situations where the consequence is going to match the “crime” and who they are as children as well! #teachersoftiktok #preschoolteacher #kindergartenteacher #montessoriteacher #montessori #consequences #naturalconsequences #behaviormanagement #classroommanagement
Maria Montessori would cry. The method was never meant to isolate children or discourage collaboration

They broke the rules yesterday. The time for your consequences was YESTERDAY. Why bring that into a new and start it off negative? Seems like you get high off power and control.

Using the term ‘friend’ while not sounding like a friend to them jars.

wow...that's not how a Montessori school should be run! Peer- learning is essential for childhood development!

The whole situation sounds ridiculous. The only school that doesn’t encourage working together

Is the ‘huge mess’ is the room with us?

at this age children parallel play is very developmentally appropriate, collaborative activities are a whole different skill set.

It isn’t harsh at all. This is what needs to be done all day cares and at home.

I work full time as a nanny. This is how I do things too. If you make the mess, you clean the mess.

In what world is that "wildly harsh"? /gen
They're capable of making the mess so they're capable of tidying it up. Perfectly reasonable.

Parents use to get annoyed with me because I would not allow their child to just leave their mess on the ground and leave when they arrived, I made them clean up their own mess. 🙄

I love this. Accountability doesn’t start in high school, it starts on day one. This is showing exceptional patience and care to develop the skill that is accountability. Keep up the great work!

It’s very obvious that a lot of the people in this comment section have never worked with kids professionally 😭 Kids need boundaries. The ones this teacher set are very age appropriate 🫶🏼

It sounds harsh from people who don’t implement Montessori in their life’s. The ones who do have learned not to argue with the rules.. Maria knows best 😅

Here in Europe we dont practice Montessori just quite like this. And definitely not with such an attitude and tone.Yes,they would absolutely have to clean the workplace.But it will not be a punishment

Question about the sharing rule: doesn’t that limit their ability to problem solve with a partner and know how to work better together later in school? I work with elementary and the kids who can’t

why on earth are they not allowed to play together? they're children! "hey sorry kids, you're not allowed to have friends!"

Why are the kids not aloud to play together? Genuinely curious since most kids thrive off playing and learning with one another
