The Montessori work circle
The Montessori work circle supports the holistic development of the child. It is a moment when children learn not only specific academic skills but also social competencies such as cooperation, communication, and respect for others. It creates a space for reflection on their own work and interaction with peers in an organized and structured way.
The work circle can be considered the heart of Montessori education—it combines the individual development of the child with community building and exemplifies how this method strives to promote both independence and social responsibility.
