Role of a teacher/As a teacher.....
It has been a successful and joyous 17 years
working with children in the age group of 2-1/2 to 11
years.
I have no idea why I chose to be a Montessori
educator, but being a Montessori teacher is no small
task. It requires a lot of effort from you. Is it worth
it? Yes, very much so. You will find yourself as
changed by the Montessori method as the children;
and together, we’ll be able to change the world.
Montessori Method has helped me to understand
myself and the children year after year, and it is still
an ongoing process. Learning and unlearning happens
all the time along with the children.
Personally, I do not believe that education is all about
marks. Teaching should be life oriented. I firmly
believe a good teacher should have a legacy to leave
behind. Legacy in the form of successful students,
who are lifelong learners, are an asset to the society.
They should take the lead in shaping students not
only for academic pursuit, but for life.
Maria Montessori said early in her work: “The
education of teachers who are able to kindle flames
rather than just fill vessels is not easy.” The
Montessori method is philosophically different from
other educational methods, and also very different
from the personal educational background of most
adults who become Montessori teachers. Montessori
education has worked all over the world, with all
kinds of children and environments. And at
Anweshana Montessori, we believe that it’s not the
richness of the environment that determines the
success of the Montessori method, but the passion
and dedication of one and all as a community.

Garage Sale
We had a garage sale on Saturday 8th December
2018 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. Primary parents
were invited to the sale.
We had to bring e-waste, broken plastic toys, books
we don’t read and toys we don’t play with anymore.
The broken toys and e-waste were sent to recycle
centers while the toys and books were sold to the
parents who came to the sale.
We did this to spread the awareness of how to reduce
waste by exchanging toys books etc. I bought a book
(Best joke Book) of which the original price was
Rs150 but as it was second hand I got it for Rs 70. I
also bought a car for my younger brother.
We raised around Rs 14,000 in the garage sale and
Anweshana used this money to clean the streets
around the school. The leftover books and toys were
given to the orphanages.
