Jaime the Flower Boy
At school the other day, during recess, Jaime picked a large handful of dandelions. When he returned to class, he gave a dandelion to the teacher. Then he decided to hand out dandelions to all the students (20+). Everyone was very excited to get dandelions and surrounded Jaime waiting their turn to get them. Those who didn’t come and get them, Jaime made sure to deliver individually. In Montessori, students are supposed to work individually and be respectful of other students doing their work. Jaime’s flower gifts disrupted every student in the class, but the teacher’s couldn’t bring themselves to do anything more than shrug their shoulders and wait for Jaime to finish.
