What are the "3 Ds and 1 F" in Montessori? | Montessori Points of Interest

Описание: Welcome to "Montessori Points of Interest" with CGMS and Heather White!

Ever find yourself wondering how to respond when a child disrupts the flow of a Montessori environment—or how to distinguish between behaviors that need redirection versus those that call for patience? Today, we’re diving into a practical and insightful framework used in Montessori: the 3 Ds and 1 F.

Join us as we explore how Destruction, Disrespect, and Dangerous behavior, along with Frustration, help educators recognize when a child needs support, redirection, or a moment of connection. Learn how understanding these cues can help Guides respond with clarity, compassion, and consistency, ensuring the classroom remains a safe, respectful space for all.
