A lovely moment from the recent North American Trainers Meeting as colleagues celebrated their gratitude and respect for the work of Lilian Bryan and Mary Raudonis Loew. Their work has touched many US training centers including Montessori Institute of Atlanta, Montessori Institute of North Texas, Southwest Institute of Montessori Studies and Washington Montessori Institute. It is a privilege to share pictures from the presentation. #montessori #global #northamerica #celebration #community #teachertraining #earlychildhoodeducation.

We were delighted to catch up with Soraya Lallani, Pedagogical Director of Association Montessori International/USA (AMI/USA) and 3-6 Auxiliary Trainer, to get some impression from her first attendance at the North American Trainers Meeting. Soray engaged with nearly 50 trainers working across Canada, Mexico and the US to consider developments and opportunities under the meeting's theme - The Preparation of the Adult. Soraya will be taking these insights into her role overseeing the US School Recognition Program and the Coaching/Mentoring program.

It's good to share a video of the presentations to the Tributaries of Hope to a River of Peace event staged by the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) North American affiliates in celebration of International Day of Peace. Particular thanks to Rachel Kimboko of AMI EAA for hosting the event and for her work on editing and preparing the video. It was the first time the affiliates have worked together on a presentation and it brought together an intergenerational group of adolescent and early career Montessorians with colleagues who have been involved in this important work for many years. There will be more news to come on how the affiliates intend to work together in 2025. Thanks also to our speakers Jacquie Maughan of NAMTA, Eder Cuevas Iturralde of Montessori México and Sandra Hernandez of the Casa Viva project, Brianne Kelsey of Association Montessori Internationale (Canada) Canada and Marzieh Avah Darling-Donnelly of World United, Ayize Sabater I of Association Montessori International/USA (AMI/USA) and Rebekah Murphy who interviewed Molly O'Shaughnessy of Montessori Center of Minnesota so expertly. Also, to Lynne Lawrence, Executive Director of AMI for tying all of the tributaries together into a river of thoughtful reflection on peace. Best wishes to all attendees and registrants. Your support is greatly appreciated. #montessori #peace #unitednations #voicesofAMI #choosemontessori #intergenerational #usa #canada #mexico #northamerica #schools #adolescent #earlycareer

Andrea Fleener, a 6-12 trainer, has been at the forefront of delivering satellite courses and blended learning and uses this Voices of AMI Training article to reflect on the ways that quality, standards and student experience remain top of mind in course design. Technology has become a wonderful enabler that helps ensure wider access and greater flexibility which is one reason that Andrea's elementary Diploma courses at The Montessori Institute in Denver continue to increase enrollment. This year's course has already started but for anyone wanting to know more or considering enrolling next year there is an information video at https://lnkd.in/gmZMiW3S #montessori #voicesofAMI #teachertraining #schools #teachers #choosemontessori #schools #teachers #denver #colorado #elementaryteaching #elementary
