I went to Montessori for 7-8 years [I'm 16 now] and its seriously the best school system I've ever seen or experienced. Learning through discovery is a huge help for retention and actual understanding of concepts. AND it's fun!
Also, what if the kid ends up doing the same thing over and over again forever. What if he doesn't get the basics (reading/writing, math, etc.). Is there some type of teaching schedule? I dono, seems good and all but could be bad for students who don't do much and need guidance and direction.
Here's something interesting that the video didn't mention. The kids call their teacher by his/her first name to promote mutual respect. We already knew the teacher was there to teach so there's no need to remind about their status. I thought it was the weirdest thing when I went to another school and the kids called their teachers by Mr./Ms. ***.
I go to Montessori.
It's a fun school. Because we get to use everything that there is.
And we don't have desks or anything, and we just sit at some random table when wanted.
But in 7-8 grade, we have more of a high school way of things, with having a schedule of each class we have to go to, but it all happens in the same room.
It's only to help transfer schools, to go to the more strict way of High School.
