Welcome to Math in the Montessori Program! I'm so glad you're here. This is my ninth year of teaching, and my second year at Sedgefield. I taught fourth grade in Raleigh, NC until I discovered the Montessori philosophy as well as how much I enjoy working with adolescents.
What I love about math is that while there is usually one solution, there are so many different ways to get that solution. I enjoy when my students explain a strategy or thought to ME, one that I hadn't even considered. In that way we teach and learn together.
If you love math, I hope you love it even more by the end of the year. If you think you hate math, my goal is to make you hate it a little less, or even come around to enjoying it!
