About the Workshop

Montessori and the Science of Reading

Teaching pre-literacy skills and reading successfully requires deep knowledge of how children learn to read as well as the strategies that are most impactful when teaching the many skills involved with reading. This workshop aligns Montessori didactic materials and pedagogy with current research on reading development. Participants will learn how the Montessori method is aligned with the Science of Reading in that they are both scientifically based and contain methods that follow a logical, systematic, and explicit progression of teaching and learning.
