The Delicate Dance of a Montessori Teaching Team with Jonathan Wolff
Jonathan Wolff joins the Voices in Montessori podcast to discuss creating effective teaching partnerships with your co-guide or classroom associate. Jonathan describes this relationship as a "delicate dance" that involves "choreographing a partnership built on trust and understanding, humility and honesty." Jonathan first defines what a well-functioning classroom team looks like. Jonathan then dives into how successful teams overcome common challenges to achieve harmony, cohesiveness, and sustained joy.
Jonathan describes specific strategies to build a successful teaching partnership. We all know it's important to clarify roles and responsibilities of each member of the team. But Jonathan encourages us to first get to know the "whole" teammate. (What brought you here? How do you best learn? What are signals that you are feeling stressed?) He advises engaging early and often in "alignment conversations" (for example, "What do we do when...?") to create consistency among the classroom team. Jonathan also explains how to employ the Montessori “Three Period Lesson” model to orient and educate team members. Jonathan shares these strategies - and so much more - in this inspiring episode of Voices in Montessori!
