Designated roles for each staff member: Each staff member has specific responsibilities to ensure all the children are cared for and each individual is supported as much as they need: Basic Montessori Principles We have a few basic principles that ensure everyone is safe and can feel confident in their work. 1. Our staff will intervene if something is hurtful, harmful or dangerous. If not, we will observe to see if the children can resolve it by themselves. 2. The adults are role models for behaviour, language and how to use the activities. 3. The children are free to choose one activity at a time and use it for as long as they like without interruptions by other people. 4. We help the children learn how to complete a whole cycle of activity (choose work, use it and replace it on the shelf for the next person). 5. Our staff make time to carefully observe each child’s individual interests so we can tailor activities to suit their current stage of development. |
