Montessori Observation System

Montessori Observation System

This download includes 4 unique observation cards, sized to fit in a 3x5 index card storage box. The cards include: Basic, One Minute Sampling, Recess, and Full Class. It also includes instructions for setting up a system using index cards, making it easy to jot down observations in the moment AND easy to look over the history for individual students when the need arises.

Observation is the most important tool a Montessori guide has in her toolbelt. But it's also SO hard to implement consistently. Montessori classrooms are bustling with activity, and guides are constantly observing students in real-time. But writing down those observations, and keeping them organized, is where things get tricky.
When I first started in a Montessori classroom, I would end each week with a hundred little observations on torn-off corners of paper, stuffed into pockets, and on tiny post-it notes stuck to everything I owned. It wasn't working. Then I realized - a process isn't going to be sustainable if there isn't a system in place.

So this download isn't just observation pages. It is a whole system for observation. If you're having trouble getting into the habit of intentional observation, try this out!
