Kiri in the Classroom Jamie McPartland

Kiri is a curious kid. Which makes the Montessori classroom environment the perfect place to explore! In Kiri in the Classroom, Kiri makes new friends on her first day of school and tries out all kinds of new activities. Written for 3-5 year olds, this is the perfect primer for kids who are new to the Montessori method.




The Kiri book series is an ongoing children's picture book series published by Aleph Editing and Montessori Learners. In the books, simple stories illustrate the experience of 4-year-old Kiri as she begins school in a Montessori classroom, highlighting her curiosity and gift for observation. Written for a 3-5-year-old audience, the Kiri series places value on self-respect, the pleasure of self-directed, hands-on learning, patient observation, and an appreciation of the natural world and those around us.
