Critical Thinking Through Cosmic Education                              Elementary/Secondary/Admin

How we approach lessons, whether is be language, math or history has a huge effect on the quality of student engagement and critical thought development. Using Cosmic Education as the framework, this hands-on workshop will provide practical tools for making the most of your precious lesson moments. The workshop includes lessons, curriculum connections and hands-on experiences.

Claudia Mann-Montessori education has been the gift of a lifetime! From my first memorable experience as a young musician sharing my flute-playing to my retirement from Head of School in 2018, I’ve seen the many benefits of Montessori in changing lives of children, young people and adults. I received Elementary I (Xavier University), Elementary II (CMTE/NY) and Secondary I (Houston Montessori Center) certifications between 1987 and 2003. My teaching career began in Cincinnati, OH and took me to a variety of places as an elementary II and secondary guide. I participated in the founding of two Montessori schools: Montessori de Santa Cruz in Tubac, AZ and Chaffee County Montessori School
