Rhyme and Reason Montessori

I’m Emily, a trained Montessori teacher, the founder of Rhyme and Reason Academy, and a full-time lead in the classroom. My mission here is to move beyond the "trends" and return to the heart of the method. Whether you are a fellow educator, a trainee, or a curious parent, this channel is designed to be your go-to resource for intentional, theory-based teaching.

What you’ll find here:
* Authentic Lesson Presentations: Step-by-step guides drawn from original source documents to ensure your practice remains true to Montessori’s vision.
* Deep Dives into Montessori Theory: Exploring the "why" behind the what we do to help you understand the child’s development.
* Practical Teacher Advice: Real-world strategies from my daily life in a brick-and-mortar classroom—from prepared environments to navigating tricky transitions.
