Inquiring Minds Want to Know

“To teach details is to bring confusion; to establish the relationship between things is to bring knowledge.” –Maria Montessori, From Childhood to Adolescence

From pouring water between different containers to mixing paint colors to planting a garden and watching it grow, little by little our little students are figuring out the world around them.
