Gaylene Latham Instructional Guide, Practicum Advisor

I am currently in my 6th year in a 3-6 classroom. I completed my Primary AMS Montessori certification in May of 2019. I hold a BA in Humanities/Literature and Elementary Education from Wheelock College (Boston, MA). I also hold a  Montessori Integrative M.Ed from TIES at Endicott College (Beverly, MA). I also currently serve as a Level 1 Catechist in a Catechesis of the Good Shepherd atrium. Before embarking on my Montessori journey I homeschooled my two boys (Adam 16 and Austen 14) through 3rd and 5th grades. Through my homeschool-parent journey I was introduced to the Montessori Method and was immediately captivated by the emphasis on individuality, exploration, and wonder. When not working I can be found reading, hiking, practicing yoga, watching movies with my boys, or working on an embroidery or crochet/knitting project.
