An American Montessori Teacher's Experience in Sri Lanka
Baker, Irene
Montessori Life: A Publication of the American Montessori Society, v18 n3 p26-29 2006
What can Montessorians learn from teaching in a war-torn country, and what can they hope to share with others in the process? These questions were much on the author's mind when she went to Sri Lanka in the summer of 2003. This article contains excerpts from e-mails the author sent home, chronicling her experience teaching two high school English classes in an all boys Catholic school.
