Overview

The 3-Hour Work Cycle is a fundamental component of Montessori education, a method of teaching developed by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 20th century[1]. This approach is based on self-directed activity, hands-on learning, and collaborative play[2]. The 3-Hour Work Cycle is a period of uninterrupted, self-directed work that allows children to engage deeply with their learning[3]. During this time, children are free to choose their activities and work at their own pace, fostering independence, concentration, and a love for learning[4].
