Making it Stick: sharing Montessori with Meaning and Impact
Whether you're presenting to new staff, curious parents, or a room full of conference attendees, delivering Montessori ideas in a way that persuades, inspires, and truly sticks requires more than just slides and facts. In this workshop, participants will learn how to craft presentations that engage the heart and mind—through storytelling that sparks emotion, and activities that invite discovery, dialogue, and connection. Rooted in the Montessori principles of learning in community, following individual strengths, and teaching through shared exploration, this session helps you turn your message into a meaningful experience.

This session supports educators and leaders in communicating Montessori ideas in ways that are engaging, authentic, and memorable.
