Impact In Montessori Schools
Shanon Flowers-Downing, a teacher at Redhouse Montessori School in Kansas City, wrote: "I have used the Living Values Education Program from start to finish this past school year with my preschool students. I absolutely loved it, the children loved it, and the outcome was really spectacular. I was dealing with a very angry and aggressive boy at the beginning of the year. After the unit on respect with a few added lessons of my own, the child found respect for himself, for others, and for the environment. He was truly my 'Star' this year. Through the teacher education center that I teach at, I have encouraged many other teachers from many other Montessori schools to use the program in their schools. Several have and have found some very similar results."
Samantha Florek, a teacher with the Montessori Elementary Charter School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, shared, "These Montessori children have a shelf that is just for cosmic education and living values activities. We love this program and continue to grow more each year. The children here are greatly loving the activities and music. They love singing the songs. The LVEP program has blended with both Montessori and state standards."
