Nurturing Freedom, Shaping Society:Montessori & the Power of the Individual

Join The Montessori Hive Seminar Series! 🐝📚✨

Looking for a space to explore Montessori ideas, share insights, and challenge your thinking? Welcome to The Montessori Hive, a buzzing online think tank where together we explore big ideas using the Socratic Seminar format.

How does it work?

For each session, we’ll share a Montessori article for you to read ahead of time. Then, we’ll come together with questions in hand for lively, thought-provoking conversation. No lectures—just real dialogue where every voice matters. Come ready to engage, reflect, and share your thoughts.

Join us on May 12 as we explore Chapter 14, “The Education of the Individual,” from Dr. Montessori’s Education and Peace.

The Education of the Individual offers a powerful reflection on how education must serve not just the collective, but the whole child. Dr. Montessori challenges the traditional view of education as a system built around conformity, and instead presents a vision that prioritizes the development of each child’s unique potential.

She invites us to reconsider:

• What does it truly mean to educate the whole child?
• How might our current systems unintentionally suppress the very individuality they should be nurturing?

This chapter is a compelling invitation to reimagine education—not as a tool for molding children into sameness, but as a path for revealing and respecting the fullness of who they already are.

Please note: To foster a sense of community and protect participants' privacy, this session will not be recorded or available for later viewing. Certificates of attendance will not be provided.

Suitable for: This series is suitable for Montessori thinkers for all age levels. Come for the learning, stay for the inspiration! Let's turn curiosity and experiences into meaningful conversation. 🐝💡
