Join us on Tuesday, December 12th, for some delicious wood fired pizza in support of our school. From 5 to 9 pm OSMS will receive a portion of the sale of each pizza sold at Flatbread Company Inc. in Providence. It's a great excuse to take a night off from cooking! Check out their menu here: https://lnkd.in/ek6nRtTN #Providence #RhodeIsland #Pizza #Flatbread #Montessori #Nonprofit #Community #Fundraiser

This Giving Tuesday we sent 8 overflowing baskets of non-perishable food to Good Neighbors RI to help replenish their shelves after Thanksgiving. Good Neighbors RI is a soup kitchen, food pantry, and day shelter located right here in East Providence and their mission is “to nourish the whole person by providing healthy food, dignifying space, and a community of support.” By teaching children how to give, how to serve, and how to support others in our community, we can achieve our vision of preparing students to become engaged citizens of the world. #GivingTuesday #ordinaryextraordinarygenerosity #Montessori #Community #RhodeIsland

This article was not written specifically about the Montessori Method, but the research on “looping” here would also favor our practice of the “three-year cycle” (Primary and Elementary students stay with the same teacher for 3 years). “With more time to get to know each student personally, teachers gain a deeper grasp of the kids’ strengths and challenges. The teachers have more opportunities to tailor their instructional and emotional support to help all the students in the class reach their potential. They’re able to identify growth not only in peaks reached, but also in obstacles overcome. The nuanced knowledge they acquire about each student isn’t lost in the handoff to the next year’s teacher.” https://lnkd.in/g9MbdgEy #montessori #education #looping #teachers #childdevelopment
