Description of Webinar: Setting and maintaining limits effectively is one of the most important components of classroom management. Dr. Montessori Montessori said, “If the child is not yet the master of his actions if he cannot obey even his own will, so much the less can he obey the will of someone else.” It is possible to set and maintain limits in the classroom with warmth and firmness in order to build true cooperation and inner discipline. In this webinar, we will explore some of the common mistakes adults make in Montessori classrooms as they seek to maintain limits, and tools to avoid those mistakes and build a respectful classroom environment.
