Using colorful photos of children working in Montessori classrooms, I will demonstrate for educators a way to explain to parents why Montessori's approach to education is more relevant today than ever. Much of my content comes from a book I am currently writing on this topic. My goal with this talk is to give other Montessori educators ideas for how they might create their own ways of explaining this amazing approach to skeptics, and to help enthusiasts to understand it more fully.
