Lab
Welcome to The Learning Lab—a dynamic home for professional learning that’s rooted in Montessori philosophy and powered by real-world application. Our courses are designed to spark practice, awaken purpose, and expand possibility for educators, administrators, and specialists alike. Whether you’re deepening your approach to literacy, exploring equity in the classroom, or refining leadership skills, each Learning Lab course offers meaningful tools, community connection, and inspiration you can bring straight into your practice.
Montessori Meets the Science of Reading
Using Scarborough’s Rope as a foundation, we dive into phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension strategies in a Montessori-informed way. We’ll break down the language of reading research into actionable steps you can implement in your classrooms immediately, from infancy through adolescence.
This course isn't just theory—it’s transformation. You’ll walk away equipped to strengthen literacy outcomes across developmental planes, confidently integrate key practices into your Montessori environment, and advocate for systems that support equitable literacy for all learners. Whether you are a teacher, administrator, or literacy specialist, you’ll leave with practical tools that honor Montessori principles while meeting the demands of today’s learners.
