Illuminate
A self-guided, 20 Video Intensive Program to Enhance your work embracing Montessori-at-Home with the Top 10 Topics.
Let’s Illuminate and get you started on your Montessori journey!
You’ll begin with a self-guided deep dive course taking you through the Top 10 Topics to embrace Montessori in your home.
Star Path Montessori is here for you. The Illuminate program is designed to get you started in the best way possible. Illuminate is a 10-topic program of pre-recorded guidance featuring the top questions asked by families wanting to learn and to bring more of the Montessori method to their home environment and everyday life.
Illuminate is structured as a 10-topic program of top principles, each being presented through 2 pre-recorded 15-minute videos. The videos are to be offered to you as a parent, along with other family members and caregivers who interact with your child(ren) and the Montessori-at-Home space while navigating the daily routine in your home.
These videos are meant to be viewed in progression, at your desired pace— processing, practicing and re-watching as needed—to gain more illumination into what this program, along with The Star, will provide for your child and your family as a whole.
