In This Webinar
You Will Learn

☑︎ How to use the developmental needs of your students as the foundation for your planning process.
☑︎ How to organize and store your "stuff" so rotating materials is as efficient as possible.

This Webinar is a Must-Watch if
► You find yourself constantly giving presentations on "easy" activities and you can't find time to get to the longer, more advanced lessons.
► Your students act "bored" and you're always scrambling to come up with brand new activities to keep them engaged.
► You get lost down the Pinterest/Instagram rabbit hole and emerge hours later with nothing to show for it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this webinar right for me?
A: This webinar is best for teachers at the early childhood level (ages 3-6). However, if you are a homeschooler or parent, you will find some useful ideas here too. It's not strictly for Montessori teachers... so please join us regardless of the type of educational approach you use! We'll be talking about super practical stuff that can be applied in most settings.
Q: Will I get a certificate for professional development hours?
A: Sorry, we won't be offering a certificate of completion for this free webinar.
Q: What time is the webinar in my country?
A: You can use a time zone converter to see what time the webinar time slots are in your area.
Q: None of the time slots work for me. What can I do?
A: Go ahead and register for any of the time slots! We'll send you a replay link once the webinar is over and you can watch it at your convenience. But please note that the replay link will expire on March 2nd.
Q: Are all the sessions live?
A: I'll be doing a "hybrid" webinar at the 7:30pm EST time slots. This means I'll be live for part of it and I'll show you a pre-recorded video for part of it. I am a bit paranoid about last minute tech issues and health issues so I wanted to make sure that the show could go on no matter what! I have pre-recorded the bulk of the webinar so you'll get to watch that even if I end up getting sick or losing my internet connection at the last second. The other time slots will only have the pre-recorded portion of the webinar... but I may pop in and surprise you!
Q: Can I ask questions during the webinar?
A: Yes! We will have a question box on the screen where you can submit your questions. I will try to address as many of the questions as possible during the Q&A at the end of the session. If I don't get to your question, I will compile an FAQ and follow up via email.
