Literature at the Heart
Have you wondered why the Montessori language curriculum offers so much in the way of grammar and so little in the way of reading and writing instruction? Have you tried to integrate balanced literacy (reader’s and writer’s workshop…), into your classroom, but wished there was a well thought-out “Montessori way” of doing it?
“A Timeline of Literature” provides a foundation in the classics while making a place for the books kids love to read. Demonstrating clearly how genre fiction (science fiction, mystery, fantasy…) has its roots in traditional forms (fairy tale, myth, fable, epic…), students will open their eyes to the story of literature itself.
Using the model of the history timelines, this material integrates the best of balanced literacy but carefully shapes these principles into Montessori methodology and authentic practice.
