Montessori are "free form" meaning the children are allowed to do what they like, which helps them develop in different areas
2. Montessori gives children the freedom to be who they want in the classroom
3. There are teachers in the classrooms, but instead of giving instructions and making every child in the room do one thing, they are more of a guide for the individual children in the classroom. 
4. The age group can range from 2 to 6 years of age so children that attend Montessori schools are not assigned a "grade" (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) 
5. Teachers are there to make learning fun for the children.]]> 2016-11-17 15:37:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138441589 mjad5 https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138445182 1. Every child is forced to do one thing and has to do it a specific way
2. Teachers are there to give specific instructions instead of being a guild
3. There are worksheets and assignments, causing stress
4. Children in traditional schools are given homework and only develop in one specific area instead of developing in multiple areas at once.]]> 2016-11-17 15:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138445182 mjad5 https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138448670 2016-11-17 15:51:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138448670 mjad5 https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138449388 2016-11-17 15:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/138449388 mjad5 https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/139070848 Active "hands-on" materials like toys, maps, and shapes. These materials used allow the child to develop more in a specific area that the child needs to develop in but, they can move on to other things and develop in different areas. ]]> 2016-11-21 13:10:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/139070848 mjad5 https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/139072274 Not so active materials, mainly worksheets. Because of this, the students there can only develop in one certain area instead of being able to develop in more than one way due to the fact that they are not able to learn in the way they want, but also because they are forced to learn in one specific way. ]]> 2016-11-21 13:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mjad5/dsif3bkpd3xa/wish/139072274
