The original Miceberg is an acrylic painting and visual tool that illustrates the depth and interconnectedness of the Montessori approach through the experiences of both the child and the guide. Originally dubbed The Montessori Iceberg—and affectionately renamed The Miceberg—this model offers a vivid metaphor for what lies beneath the surface of Montessori practice. Used in professional development sessions and parent enrichment offerings, it serves as a catalyst for reflection, conversation, and big-picture understanding.
The PDF includes the iceberg model, along with its identified parts, and an accompanying table that outlines the guide and the child’s experience of the Montessori theory in practice. A secure link will be emailed with access for 24 hours.
