We celebrate International Day of Peace through a look into the Montessori curriculum that fosters relationship building and social emotional learning.
The UN Day of Peace is coming up on September 21st. Montessori Schools from all around the world celebrate this day by singing for peace. This song travels from the eastern shores of New Zealand to the western shores of Hawaii. Our children are learning the words to this beautiful song. We will share our MCA version with you on Thursday.
From country to country, city to city, children and teachers around the globe will take a few moments on this special International Day of Peace to remember the world needs peace now more than ever!
Join us and help spread the message to light a candle for peace, for love, for life!
Children have an innate sense of peace and natural understanding of social justice that leads to change. When given freedom and guidance, children begin to learn there is an opportunity for growth and understanding through conflict.
Creating a classroom that is respectful, inclusive and celebrates diversity in all forms continues to spread the message of peace and understanding that Maria Montessori wrote about in her books and articles.
We invite our children to learn about these concepts through social emotional lessons and relationship building. From learning manners, kindness and courtesy to asking a friend to play, basic lessons will be the stepping stones for future advanced lessons about social justice and peace. We are also re introducing Seeds of Empathy to our casa program this year.
