Earth Day - April 22nd Each year as we celebrate Earth Day, we are reminded that the planet Earth is our ‘real’ home, ‘our world’ - a place we must continually respect, nurture and protect! As the human population continues to flourish, a great number of our essential resources are depleted. The result of this is devastating to our beautiful planet. We must keep these continuously negative environmental impacts we cause, under careful observation! Action must be taken! It is of utmost importance we continue bringing awareness to the fragile state of our planet before its too late! This is the essence of Earth Day... understand the powerful impact that just one individual has on our earth. By developing a heightened awareness and sensitivity to the various environmental issues, children learn to understand the delicate interconnectedness we all share. Through learning to be respectful of others within the microcosm of the Montessori classroom, children learn to be empathetic and respectful to all. Montessori was a firm believer in the power of nature. She was a strong advocate of using natural materials and products in the classroom. This, she felt, instilled a sense of beauty and harmony in the indoor Montessori environment. She believed nature was a source of inspiration for all learning, and strongly encouraged her teachers to take the children outdoors to explore whenever possible. She also was a fervent believer that the future of our planet rests within the education of the child. Montessori’s vision of Cosmic Education was for children to

The land is where our roots are. The children must be taught to feel and live in harmony with the earth. - Maria Montessori

Solaris 315000

The Solaris clock turns telling time into a creative activity. Children can build their own clock using the Solaris components. It is a unique, multipurpose clock. There are several interchangeable faces – Arabic numerals, Roman numerals divided into minutes and a sundial. These clock faces are commonly found in every day life. Introducing the concept of time as a function of the sun and rotation of the earth opens to the children an entirely new perception of time concepts and their relationships. The supplied compass is needed to orient the clock to north and introduces the concept of direction on the planet’s surface (also known as ‘magnetic’ north). Includes: one clock (37 x 31 x 10 cm), with a storage compartment for the clock faces, four interchangeable clock faces in different colors (diameter 27 cm), two removable clock hands, a sundial pointer, a compass, a whiteboard marker and instructions.
