A Montessori classroom needs more than a conventional teacher planner.
You are planning presentations, observing children, recording progress, supporting independent projects, communicating with families and keeping track of dozens of practical details.
The Montessori Teacher Binder brings those responsibilities together in one flexible organisation system designed specifically for Montessori educators.
From Great Lesson planning and observation records to Going Out experiences, student conferences and material inventories, this binder helps you keep the information you need organised and accessible.
