Making Inclusion Work in the Montessori  Casa

Come to this full day workshop to explore Montessori's inclusive roots, how to positively frame our understanding of complex behaviors and unpack the Pyramid Model as it relates to the Montessori Casa.

The Pyramid Model is a highly effective approach to promote healthy social and emotional development in early childhood settings.  We'll use Montessori-friendly tools and techniques to implement and evaluate Pyramid Model best practices.  Our aim is to grow in our ability to support ALL of the children in our community, especially the ones who challenge us the most! 

In Person Attendance: PNMA Members $117;  Public $147

Morning refreshments and Midday buffet.

Remote Attendance by Zoom: $47
