Montessori courses in Kyzylorda Children's Home

Recently, for the teachers of the Regional Specialized Children's Home in Kyzylorda, the Saby Foundation organized another training course for the Montessori system.

A few years ago, the specialists of this institution already passed 3 training stages with the lecturer of the Eurasian Center of Montessori-Pedagogy in Yekaterinburg, who had been invited by our foundation.

This time the seminars on practical work with Montessori materials were conducted by specialists from Almaty.

22 students of the course mastered exercises for sensory, sensorimotor, manipulative, motor, and speech zones. Demonstrations of musical and rhythmic exercises with the use of musical instruments, nursery rhymes, poems were held. An important part of the course is the organization of work with children from 0 to 3-4 years. The staff of the institution was particularly interested in practical classes in the classroom with children, where they were able to work out the principles of Montessori pedagogy, and the children at the same time opened up, became more sociable, and their anxiety decreased.

We would like to recall that the Montessori Center was first opened in Kyzylorda by the Saby Foundation in 2013 in the Children's Home, which the Foundation had  built at its own expense a year earlier. To this day, to some extent, this institution receives support.
