LdL already in kindergarten? Yes.

Posted by asecoli on October 27, 2008

A few days ago, I visited two groups of a Montessori kindergarten. Although, I didn’t exactly see LdL, I am now firmly convinced that you can also use LdL with little children. Children were working in pairs. Kids aged 5 taught kids aged 3 or 4: one girl taught another one the figures 2, 4 and 6; one girl taught a boy the letters e, l and s; one girl taught another one how to tie; and one boy taught a girl how to wash her hands. For games, there were elements that allowed the kids to check by themselves whether their solution was right. Very interesting and inspiring.
