Then they have a time where they call it Peace on the Line - where first they are to sit all quietly and listen - then one by one they say what they hear - be it birds, people chattering etc. I think they have great learning moments on the line. And they may be further emphasizing the Books of the Bible on the line. It is not in song that he is learning it but I think they are learning it about 3 or 4 at a time so they will add on each time after they have mastered it. Sorry I am not more specific. With Montessori education it seems like you will get out of your kids what they are learning or mastering in school when they are ready to tell you. Good luck with your children's education!

Their schedule is:
7:30am or whenever they girst get there they journal - whether they just scribble or are writing already they journal - the teacher will then come to each one as they are finished and ask what did you draw - and then my son will tell them (again just colored scribbles - but in their head they were thinking of something) and the teacher will right what my son told them on the sidelines. This is why I love Montessori because it is the same number of students that was in my son's old daycare but through Montessori he gets actual one on one attention.
