Education Committee Discussion Evening

Friday, November 16
7pm at school (room to be determined)

Choices for children - Is Alfie Kohn's perspective realistic and applicable or utopian?

The education committee is inviting all school families (grown-ups and kids) to an evening of discussion on facilitating choices for children at school and at home as presented last week by Alfie Kohn at the Montessori Conference.

We hope you will join us for stimulating dialogue and sharing of ideas on how to enhance our children's potential to learn and flourish in an inspired and inspiring environment.

For those of you who couldn't make it to Alfie Kohn's presentation, it might be useful to read his article Choices for children which sums up his arguments for allowing children greater choice.

refreshments will be provided
