June Montessori Activities

This is what we have been doing this month at our newly converted environments at Ban Phuko, Ban Huaykhom and Ban Hauy Rai Bon child centers, all of which are located in Chiang Rai province.

-The children are settling in quickly, and have began enjoying the practical life exercises.

Walking on the line:

We used a taped line on the floor and we taught the children to walk on it. We observed the inner enjoyment as they walked towards perfecting their sense of balance.

Sandpaper Letters Using Shan language

We are happy to be back with these interesting updates!

Over the past few months we have been providing a basic Montessori training on material-making to two teachers from the Shan State. We made these amazing sandpaper letters in their native Shan language, which is writing similar to Burmese. We also equipped them with a Montessori three-period lesson to aid them in their teachings once they return to their communities in Shan State, Burma.
