The Montessori Dictionary - DRY POURING

[@maryamkhalil7326]

Hi Ms. Jenny, thank you so much for all the practical Montessori training you have been sharing through these super beneficial video presentations! Your heartfelt tips and advice truly inspire me and give me the confidence to teach my students in a delightful, effective way. I was just wondering, can you also do videos illustrating "Grace & Courtesy" lessons with examples and practical advice on how to teach good manners to children ages 3-6 years old? It would be immensely appreciated, and thank you very, very much in advance!

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Always. happy to help

[@renbet9035]

Thank you yet again for another great video. I was going to skip this one as we are already doing alot of pouring but glad I watched. Was looking for more ways to vary up the activities and I had never thought of teaching the little one to use a funnel so will definitely try!!

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Very welcome and have fun

[@culturecreators5324]

Hi! Could you expand on the idea of the importance of having enough dry materials in the pitcher to have some left over after filling two different sized containers is indirectly working on mathematics skills?

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Great question! When children have to pour dry materials into two different-sized containers and still have some left over, they're indirectly working on concepts like estimation, volume, and comparison. They begin to understand that different containers hold different amounts and that the quantity of the materials remains the same even when distributed differently. This hands-on experience with volume and quantity lays the groundwork for more abstract mathematical concepts later on. It’s a wonderful, practical way to introduce basic math skills through everyday activities!

Thank you so much! I would like to do more pouring activities. Do the pitchers and little glass jars have a name? I can't find them!

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Thanks for watching. No they do not have a name

[@deeparawat2510]

Mam, please make a video on the computer in the montessari classroom. As you are a teacher, what are activities are taught to child an early age.

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Thanks for the advice... I will surely try to do so.

Hello. Thank you for putting your time into making these videos. You make them clear to understand and I enjoy them. I am wondering what practical life activities are appropriate for a 12-13 month old.

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Glad you like them! for a 1 year old child activities that involve the fingers, holding objects, transferring balls and buttons, pom poms. Household skills - wiping tables and windows, spreading butter

[@anitashanmugam1034]

What if the child doesn't have patience to let me explain in the beginning?

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Great question! Patience can sometimes be a challenge during dry pouring activities. To keep the child engaged, start by making the activity fun and interactive. Show them how exciting it can be to pour the dry materials, and then let them give it a try. If they're still struggling with patience, you can break the activity into smaller steps. Begin with a brief demonstration, then have them pour a small amount, and gradually increase the amount as they become more comfortable. You can also turn it into a game by setting a timer and challenging them to pour as quickly as possible while still being careful. Remember, it's all about making learning enjoyable and helping them develop patience over time.

I have a 4 yr old who is not cooporative with her peers. When she likes an activity she "hoards" it. She will play with it and then hold onto it while getting something else out. I keep trying to explain the idea of sharing, taking turns, putting one thing away before getting out another, she is just not willing to work well with others. She is obstinate when it comes to almost every thing all day. There is a control issue happening but while we try to work through this, she is not making friends and that makes me sad. She is given choices throughout the day and usually wants anything other than the 2 choices offered. Also, if she does put it away, she will sit next to the next person who is using it and keep putting her fingers in their activity and irritating them. I cannot figure out how to curb this behavior. Any ideas, experience with this, or suggestions?

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Have you tried having some form of boundaries or consequences for her. "If you disturb your friends when they are working then I will have to ----" It may not work immediately... but after experiencing the consequence after a few times she may be able to follow the rules.

[@Pro7093]

@@SunshineTeachersTraining I ask her to leave. Her friends alone. I tell her that they used their words to ask her to leace them alone. I give her a minute to process and decide if she will move ir not. Then I tell her she has the choice to pick something else and sit somewhere else or she can go to the next room ( which is an open floor plan and isnt away from us but is away from the child she is bothering) usually she screams at us. "Noooooo. I want it!". I take her by the hand and walk her away while she is screaming and tell her to please join us when she is calm again but we have the choice to not listen to her scream. She usually cries for about 30 seconds and comes back and us fine for a little bit. I can't seem to get her to understand the concept of returning the item so someone else can have it. She just hoards what she likes. It is not fair or just to the others. I am really trying my best to help her but I just don't know if I am doing it right, or if she just will take longer to learn.

Great work Ma'am. Helps many teachers like me. ❤️

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

Glad to hear that

[@rizab.6821]

thank you for this very wonderful video, didn’t know it can be done with different variations. may I know what age can we start doing this activity?

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

You can start at 3 years

[@renbet9035]

My little one is 26 months and loves picking up things to throw them back out again, but is not great at tidying up something to leave it tidy. At this age how strict should I be about the clean up process? Any suggestions on things to try?

[@SunshineTeachersTraining]

It is always a. great idea to make tidying up a game or something fun. But you must be gentle yet firm about tidying up.
