Elem kids doing cubing...using actual cubes!
Other than the re-launching of PARENTING THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE, this Saturday will also have a huge event. It is the Open House of The Abba’s Orchard, one of the best schools around (my very biased opinion, since I work there).Well, here’s an invitation from yours truly to attend the Open House. If you’re school hunting, try Abba’s Orchard, the truest Montessori school in Cagayan de Oro (sure, others can put "Montessori" on their title, but it’s all in the training and use of material). If you ask me, no other school does a better job in molding not only academically excellent kids, but also ones that are vibrant, have social skills, and, well, possess all around excellence.
Oh, not only is it the truest Montessori school in Cagayan de Oro, it is the only school in Asia-Pacific who offers the whole Montessori curriculum.
The Open House will feature the children presenting various Montessori materials to the parents. I’ve already made blog articles about last year’s Open House, so I won’t re-invent the wheel. I’ll just provide links and pics below.
Hate geography? Not with puzzle maps!
What you’re gonna see:The Casa program: Which is the per-elementary program of the Abba’s Orchard. Montessori is fantastic in pre-elementary. In fact, just about all my students who have started with Abba’s since the Casa years are awesome…a credit to the awesome Casa program of the school.
The Elementary program: My two girls are in that program. What’s amazing is the great love for work these kids possess. The Montessori method doesn’t make school a chore. It makes school a joy.
The Erdkinder (high school) program: This is where I come in. It’s one of only a handful of Montessori Farm schools on this planet. As you can see, the teens do more than just hit the books. They hit the farm. You’ll appreciate why they do that when you click on the link.
Real academics! Science? Check. Math? Check. Business skills? Check.
See you there.
