After an eight week hiatus starting in mid-November, we're back at it with our Montessori work. We adapted our schedule a bit so that the big kids' Montessori time occurs in a half hour time slot after lunch, as soon as the goose goes down for her nap. We do this just a couple days per week, but it seems to be working better. In the fall I reserved two mornings a week to do Montessori school stuff with the kids but I found that, in reality, we only did our work for about 40 - 45 minutes (about their attention span for this age); the rest of the day was then too open. I'm much preferring having some focused, enjoyable school time for both the big kids during the week, but not making it the central point of the day.
