Montessori Moment: Alumni Spotlight
 Author and Professor Teresa Milbrodt had a reading at Grounds for Thought this week. She had this to say about the Montessori School of Bowling Green:
-
I learned how to read at very early age, and always loved books. At Montessori, my passion for reading was encouraged, and I was given assignments that challenged my skills. The confidence with and love of language I developed in those early years has followed me throughout life.
This is a link with more information about my book. It can also be purchased at this web site: http://www2.chizinepub.com/books/bearded.php
Cheers,
Teresa
