Folklore dances S9
Age group: 2, 5 – 3 years
Term: 9.00 – 9. 45, Wednesday

14 classes from 7.9. – 14.12. 2010/ 130 CZK per class, in total 1820 CZK

My aim won´t be only to teach children basic dance movements, but also to teach them shorter integrated folk dance, choreografy which could be shown in front of the parents. Both, children and parents will have better feelings about the whole matter. It will be cihldren´s first public performance, they will have motivation not to miss a single class. After each term children receive a final report which will help them to know in which fields they could improve. They will get marks for: posture, expression, attendance , manners (these are objective for all children). Children cannot learn folk dances in this age. The aim is that children get the feeling for the dance itself, they feel the music, rhythm, they have the pure joy from dancing, they possibly learn some dancing games. It´s necessary to respect the partner while dancing. On the stage children are not alone, they need to perceive their “neighbours“. Folklore is amazing because it´s not only about pure dancing, it´s also about games, versification, chanting, singing etc. Dancing is pleasure and that is matching with my goal.

“Child is not an empty container which is filled with our knowledge and which must be grateful for everything. No, child is a builder of the man and there is nobody who wouldn´t be created by a child. Once we all were children.” Child is not an empty container which is filled with our knowledge and which must be grateful for everything. No, child is a builder of the man and there is nobody who wouldn´t be created by a child. Once we all were children.

The most important age of a child is between 0 and 3. At the age of three the child´s elemental human character is being formed. Until that age he digest all unconsciously and thereafter analyzes that. The fundamental sense of this course is to enable the child to work in a set environment that reacts on his sensitive phases, in which he possesses the inner need to learn (the period of climbing stairs, grabbing small objects, opening and closing doors, undoing and doing shoelaces etc.). In this environment children can naturally develop and express their hidden secrets. Children taking part in the course We Start With Montessori will, together with their parents, work in a set environment and with Montessori tools. In that way not only children will be enriched but also their parents, who will be practically introduced to the Montessori philosophy. Parents are the most important elements and the first “teachers” of their child, that is why they should be informed and respecting educators.

In our courses We Start With Montessori parents are only helpers to their children, not leaders. The introductory lecture, which is obligatory to the parent that would like to enrol their children to this course, concerns such topics and much more. The principles of Montessori Method and course rules will be explained there. The lecture is free.

“Child is not an empty container which is filled with our knowledge and which must be grateful for everything. No, child is a builder of the man and there is nobody who wouldn´t be created by a child. Once we all were children.” The course We Start With Montessori is aimed at trained parents that have decided to enable their children to familiarize with Montessori Method in depth.

The most important age of a child is between 0 and 3. At the age of three the child´s elemental human character is being formed. Until that age he digest all unconsciously and thereafter analyzes that. The fundamental sense of this course is to enable the child to work in a set environment that reacts on his sensitive phases, in which he possesses the inner need to learn (the period of climbing stairs, grabbing small objects, opening and closing doors, undoing and doing shoelaces etc.). In this environment children can naturally develop and express their hidden secrets.

It has been more than one hundred years since Maria Montessori had opened her first institution for children in Rome. Despite the general meaning that children are only superficial, she found out they have a greater sense for details rather than adults. Against the opinion about children´s disorderliness she claimed that children love – even demand – order (this was based on repeatedly confirmed detections). People believe that children cannot concentrate for a longer period of time , nevertheless it was shown that being occupied with certain activities they manage to concentrate to such an extent they don´t even perceive surroundings. Some superficial “interpreters“ sometimes claim that the basis of Montessori approach is to give children limitless freedom. Everyone, who is experienced with this “way of education“ , comes to the decision that limitless freedom leads towards selfishness and incapacity for adaptation. But freedom and leeway are key issues in Montessori education. But their use must be planned and systematic. Together with Maria Montessori we will discover spontaneous displays of a child such as: attention, concentration, joy and we will guide him on his way of recognizing the world around us.
