- Children bring a snack of fruits, and they eat their snack around 10:00 a.m.
- Children work at the activities of their choice in their prepared Montessori classroom until around 11:15 a.m. In our classroom are several hundred age-appropriate activities and materials that the children are invited to choose from. They may work by themselves independently or they can choose to work with a friend.
