Today we explored a bit of history and culture from across the ocean! The children learned about Guy Fawkes Day (also known as Bonfire Night), a tradition celebrated in England each November 5th. We talked about how people light bonfires and fireworks, and even added to our firework canvas from last year!

Today our class had a special visit from the firefighters and their fire truck! Experiences like this help children make real-world connections to the people and tools that keep our community safe.

The children watched with curiosity as the firefighters explained their roles, and shared how they help others in emergencies. Seeing the fire truck up close invited rich conversation, new vocabulary, and a sense of respect for the important work these helpers do every day.

Thank you to our local fire department for taking the time to nurture our children’s natural wonder and sense of community. ❤️

Who’s the teacher now? 💜 Our toddlers loved showing their parents how they work and explore during Montessori Saturday! It was a morning full of discovery, smiles — and a few tears, too — as having so many grown-ups in the classroom is a big change. We host this special event twice a year, and it’s always amazing to see the growth from those first unsure moments to the pride that shines as they show off their work.

🌍✨ “The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind.” – Maria Montessori

Today we celebrate International Day of Peace by remembering that our youngest children carry the seeds of a more peaceful world. In Montessori, we believe that peace begins in the heart of the child—through kindness, respect, independence, and care for others.

Every moment of grace and courtesy from assisting a friend with their shoes to holding hands, every lesson in cooperation, and every act of empathy nurtures the foundation for a more compassionate future.🕊️ Our youngest learners are not only preparing for tomorrow—they are the hope of tomorrow. By guiding them today, we are shaping a more peaceful, just, and loving world.

We just finished our 4th week of school. It’s so fun to take a glimpse of all the different stages in the classroom. We have some friends already grabbing rugs to work on, rolling them and placing the rug back. We have friends working from the shelf. Some friends are learning to carry the whole tray to the table. Different ages, different stages… that’s the Montessori classroom. It’s amazing in just 4 short weeks what they are learning from observing each other and our modeling as guides. 💜💥

🌊🐚 Queenie kept it coastal this time with a charming getaway to Southport, NC! From ferry rides to Fort Fisher to exploring the local aquarium and strolling through this picture-perfect seaside town, she soaked up every bit of small-town charm and salty breeze. 🐟⛴️☀️

🎉 Happy Birthday to the best teaching partner anyone could ask for! Ms. Michelle, your creativity, patience, and endless positivity make every day in the classroom brighter. Thank you for being such a wonderful teammate and friend—our students, families (and I!) are so lucky to have you. Here’s to another year of making memories together! 🥳🍎✨

A sighting at our garden this morning. We spy a special alumni and her sibling that will be joining us this year, too! 🥰 Look at all the fruits and veggies our garden produced. Brings back great memories of planting with the children. There are so many similarities in gardening and working with children in the classroom-
~ Different plants grow at different rates….Every child develops at their own pace.
~ Growth isn’t visible every day. Learning often happens gradually.
~ Blooming takes time and patience. Confidence and mastery emerge over time.

We love that our families visit the garden during the summer. Just 4 weeks until we all gather here and begin to tend the “garden” together! We can’t wait!!
