分享蒙特梳利教學法part 2

I see, you really have great courage to take such move.  I think it's very rare to have a mother in HK like you, including myself.  I have read lots of books about Montessori after attending 30 hrs parent class in IC and i totally buy in the montessori concept about teaching a BB.  I think your arrangement is extremely great but me, myself, can't really afford the pressure from my peers.....I really hope my BB can continue to attend the 3-6 class but I can't hardly let her not studying in K1.  May be I will let her study in BC again when she's in K2 and no longer need to take a nap in the afternoon....

i think it is better if you search other taiwan or overseas websites.  It is very rare for HK parents to put the child in an exclusively montessori environment before moving on to primary school.  So there is not much of experiences to share.  After all, montessori is still in its infant stage in HK.  Even I have to face reality and put my daughter in a regular kinder comes k2.

其實有一樣野係home montessori做唔到，就係peer學習．小朋友鐘意互相學習，所以蒙氏混齡班work．細ｄ小朋友鍾意向大小朋友學習，大小朋友照顧細小朋友，reinforce佢地學左嘅野，又有滿足感．

另外一樣我鍾意蒙氏嘅原因，老師會因應小朋友進度同興趣教學，如果成班人同一進度咁教，老師真係冇咁好氣．我個女唔鍾意數學邏輯，老師唔會出面迫佢，但就會用ｄ曲線方法令佢明白一定要做．而且而家呢個老師好好，唔係淨係專注個女學幾多野，而係好關注佢嘅人生觀同態度．

邊個唔想自己個小朋友入好小學中學大學？但係我對香港教育制度好失望，所以我唔care，亦唔想玩呢個遊戲．我有朋友本來想比個仔考定係報懷仁，點知佢有親戚小朋友係個度讀小二定小三，係就係年年考第一，但原來係佢阿媽攞左好多past paper成日操住，逢週末就係屋企溫習．我嘅疑問係，我係咪想自己仔女做考試機器？小學就過呢ｄ生活？再加上政府連連教改，真係叫人無所適從，我自己有個親戚個仔係st paul co-ed讀中四，佢對通識科都媽媽聲．

我buy montessori，除左真係鍾意之外，亦都係我覺得佢地用嘅方法先係未來工作所需，培養world citizen，而面對全球一體化，個人唔認為香港用嘅regional方法可以接軌．香港制度係承襲英國植民地所需，只要培養一班服從性高又有知識嘅人，聽order做事就得．你睇下而家港人治港，政府事事都拖泥帶水，只識逢迎阿爺就知．因為工作關係，我有時要請人，interview不眨本地各大學畢業生，我只能以失望來形容，唔係我一個講，有時同ｄ朋友講起，大家都好有同感，好多時ｄ學生回應問題係：唔知，以前係教授出題目，佢地跟住做，唔會諗深一層．

如果我經濟能力所及，我都盡量唔想比個女參加大抽獎．我小時候入小學係要考試，而家個個來大抽獎，將唔同程度嘅小朋友夾硬group埋一齊，結果好學校想保持水準都有心無力，大家馬馬虎虎過日神．我唔知其他國家點，但係係美國，就算公立學校，上到中學都會分advanced同普通level，而係初中（香港p.6)除左基本學科外，已經可以選科，如數學仔叻ｄ就可以讀高一班，所以人地係就係公立，但係可以accommodate唔同程度嘅小朋友．

因為返唔到montessori學校, 我之前都有考慮home setting, 買套教具係屋企用, 後來想清楚後決定唔買, 因為全套教具要用係教室的環境下先可以發揮到應有的作用.  因蒙氏混齡班的安排, peer 之間的學習, 亙相配合才對.

我個陣時都上過ic 家長班, 我係兩年前上, 當時計埋實習係60小時, 之後我再上0~3歲班, 又多30小時.  我睇過d教具walk through, 感覺係屋企好難執行到, 一來一般家長冇經過正式訓練, 我去上堂, 真係有三十~40小時起碼係講教具, 但係我睇完只係得個好shallow概念, 根本唔足夠我係屋企操作; 二來屋企始終唔係純蒙氏教室, 會有好多不必要嘅distraction.  我覺得係屋企可以行蒙氏, 但係蒙氏正宗教具就唔洗買.

我問過我个仔的老師, 在BC學montessori 教具, 在家有甚麽需要配合. 老師說家裹是孩子放鬆休息既地方, 唔需要模仿个setup. 孩子要學習分開學校做的是工作, 家裹做的是玩耍. 我聽完老師咁講之后, 心裏好像少了些壓力. 兒子在家的時间, 佢最鍾意玩火車/飛机, 積木, 另外就係跟我看故事書. 講真, 我對montessori 教具真係所知皮毛, sensorial 那part 都仲可以自由癸揮, advance 些 的真係幾難明又幾難教. 反而講故事書我較有自信和興趣.

It's also great to hear this message.  I think the most important arrangement to cope with Montessori at home is to miminize intervention and keep positive attitude towards BB's behavior.  It's fortunate that I've learnt the basic concept so that I didn't wrongly interpret the development needs of the BB.  So far, my BB is quite confident and very willing to be independent.  Also, she's very considerate in most of the time and very helpful and show empathy of the people who needs helps around her...

I'm very interested in the Montessori and playing to send my gal to join nursery or toddler Montessori class.  Now, I only know the IMS for Montessori.  Can anyone tell me which Montessori school is good (in terms of the teacher, environment, students, and school fee).  Anyone has completed the Montessori class until 6?  What will be the path for them after the Montessori kinder?  Going to local primary school or international school is also a big headache for me.  My husband likes international school as he wants our kid to have a happy childhood.  For me, I want to wait and see my gal's personality and see which stream fits her long term development.  My gal is only 7 months now.  I read lots of threads at baby kingdom and hopefully I can get more hints from it.  thanks

不過阿囝好似几鐘意番, 近來又帶啲eng書回來, 讀到哂(好簡單的句子)....lee个阿ma好易滿足.

蘇淅, 反而成日話唔想番. 佢真係一時一樣.

佢可能都係番多icms一个學年, 到5岁9个月可以唔番.
之后睇下可否番蘇淅全日law.

即係你會打算安排進進在蘇淅K3轉全日班?

ICMS 中文學習又如何? Casa班有多少人? Class teacher仍然係Kelly, 再加一個普通話老師嗎?

轉唔轉到唔知ga. 轉唔到咪讀半日law.
icms中文老師(陳老師)我覺得几好, 佢一week黎4日.有一套教材follow. 每week進進會帶一至兩張worksheet回來, 如春天时講春天花開...學4个詞語(有圖畫), 之后每个詞語有句子(中英对照, 方便啲外國小朋友). 佢番黎全部都識讀(普通話), 啲音仲好準. 過节又會講下节日會做啲咩.

陳老師話進進好鐘意跟住佢, 第个小朋友單对單時, 佢又會like在旁听. 可能咁, 我覺得進進喺icms學中文比英文好. 寫字老師話會看个別小朋友程度, 如ready就做多啲, 進進都開始寫到數目字, 好彩佢係大仔, 喺蘇淅都可慢慢黎. 佢好硬頸, 迫佢做的話會好辛苦.

我估每个小朋友都唔同. 睇下佢果期对咩嘢sensitive啲.

casa佢地maxi係16人. 剛去佢地web話現在full class. (唔怪得敢下年加學費) 不過, 佢地由開校到現在差不多兩年都冇加.
但一次加咁多又係

class teacher唔止ms kelly, 仲有个ms alice. 可能仲有多个, 要問下進進先.

會唔會係進進讀KCS, 普通話可能會講得比英文多, 所以係ICMS學中文比英文好一點.

早一個星期send 了email 問 ICMS 有冇開辦 summer class.  不過一直未有回覆。

聽講ICMS以前ms. jill 去左兒童無限九龍塘教.

我個女好重視著裙, 如果自己冇著, 其他小朋友有著,佢直情會情緒低落, 早兩個月都幾凍, 我梗係叫佢著衭, 佢好似要同我死過咁. 我將呢件事同老師講, 過年時佢返台灣, 特登搵左相關嘅故事書, 返到來係circle time同全部小朋友講, 再來個q&a同討論, 我個女而家唔再insist要著裙, 對衣著隨和左, 我都冇咁煩. 所以我真係好感激老師, 佢對每個小朋友都咁關心.  老師同我都同一口徑, 德育係最重要, 學識幾多都係其次, 佢認為小朋友係透過工作去強化內在, 唔一定話純學術, 重要培養專注同毅力, 我好欣賞佢嘅觀點.

我想係到同大家分享, 我個女本身都唔係難教, 不過都有自己情緒, 人人都有, 呢個好正常, 但係我感受到佢呢幾個月嘅改變, 佢主動左, 性情平和左, 開朗左, 我覺得係好大得著.

my daughter's studying at ICMS pre-casa class.  while i would love tolet her continue schooling there, i don't think i can afford the feesfor the casa program. so i'm thinking maybe she can go to local kindie in themorning, and the casa program at Best Concept (3 days a week) in theafternoon.  i know elmostoney has many good things to say about this place.  but my other concern is if it make sense at all (meaning if it would be useful)by sending her there for just 3 days a week?

elmostoney

I suggest you give it a try because unlike other montessori schools, BC doesn't require you to make a deposit.  You can withdraw your child any time.  

我諗我講學校同老師點好, 其實呢d都要你自己去體會.  icms, 兒童無限我都返過.  cdb 同 ims我都睇過三次.  我只可以講, 我個人最鍾意係 bc.  佢嘅地方係咁多間montessori之中最細嘅, 除左就腳, 要睇你注重靚同大campus定係老師經驗同愛心.  單以場地而論, 我諗大家都唔會揀 bc. 我所認識嘅bc家長, 冇人有bad comment against the school, 呢d已經好少有, 因為多數都會有人唔鍾意一d野.  除左ims我冇熟人係到讀之外, 其他每間我都有熟朋友係到讀過或者讀緊, 所以我都聽到好多野. you know, montessori家長圈子其實唔大, 來來去去都係個班人.
