S2 E2 Montessori through the eyes of Cara, 6 years old, in the Philippines & her mother Mars

The Montessori Notebook podcast :: a Montessori parenting podcast with Simone Davies

Mars (Instagram/website) was a Montessori educator and owned her own school and now homeschools her daughter Cara. I asked Mars if I could interview her daughter Cara about their Montessori homeschooling and we spoke for over an hour! I'm sure you'll enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
At the end Mars also talks about how she supports Cara's learning and what "successful" homeschooling looks like to them.

Listener question

My question for you is do you have any recommendations regarding resources or training for educators who do not intend on working in a Montessori school but would still like to approach teaching in a Montessori way? I work as a teacher in a public elementary school in Canada and would love to have a better understanding of the Montessori approach to early numeracy and literacy learning. I am specifically looking for resources for students in the 3-6 range. Thanks!
