There is a huge misconception that Montessori means that the
children are free to do whatever they choose and that the class is not
structured. This is not the case at all! That would be complete
chaos and how would anything get accomplished?! It really comes down to
those ground rules!
The children are free to choose the work that they do as long as
they are following the ground rules and there is structure created by these
ground rules.
In our classrooms the children developed the classroom ground
rules. Such as
1. We use inside voices
2. Be kind and respectful.
3. Be a good role model always
