Is there anything more Montessori than an open-ended game?
It hit me like when my child’s teacher sees him after three months from summer break and says, “Wow, they’ve grown!” You knew they were growing, but you didn’t realize how much until someone else pointed it out. Those small incremental growth spurts go under the radar, just as the change in play occurred over the years.
“we also needed a large-group game that kept every player involved, excited, and learning. That’s when VolleyDodge Ball was born”
I’ve been making some updates to the Montessori Physical Education curriculum lately, and I wanted to share a few highlights.
This is a lifelong project for me — a mission to design lessons that teach academic concepts and fundamental movement patterns at the same time.
