MMPI's Understanding Interventions and Therapies in a Montessori Setting
Description of the Course
We are here to support YOU in meeting the needs of your students with developmental and learning differences. MMPI is again offering by popular demand, our fully-online course for Montessori Teachers, Administrators and Special Educators: Understanding Interventions & Therapies in a Montessori Setting.
This course is designed to give participants as much flexibility as possible. You can access course content whenever it works for you. We are now offering both weekend and weekday live online sessions at times that we believe will work for most people in most time zones. The course consists of 3 parts: Part 1 during October, Part 2 during November, and Part 3 during January, 2025.
Asynchronous course content, which is content you access on your own from the Google classroom, will be available prior to each live ZOOM class. This allows you to prepare for the online sessions at your convenience. There will be lectures to watch, content to read, and discussion forums where you can share your ideas and get to know your course-mates, as well as assignments to help you apply what you are learning to your own work with children and adolescents.
There will also be many opportunities to ask questions.
