Field Day
Indiana Montessori Academy • November 22, 2023
The month of May brings us warmer weather and a time to enjoy some fun outside with our Annual Field Day event! We spend the morning playing a variety of field day games. The children come together in small groups and venture around our large property to participate in the games. We have obstacle courses, a three-legged race, a water balloon toss, balancing games, the sponge race, and even the Limbo. Each year we add different games and keep some of our favorites like any game with a splash of water or the Limbo! Our IMA Community has amazing parent volunteers that help us with all the energy of the day. We cap off the morning with our favorite summertime treat of homemade popsicles!
Hey let's do the limbo rock!
The Montessori approach, pioneered by Dr. Maria Montessori, emphasizes not just academic achievement but also the social and emotional growth of the child.
Instead of simply praising children for their outcomes or achievements, Montessori educators focus on acknowledging the effort and process behind a child’s work.
