Implementation
In a Montessori classroom, the 3-Hour Work Cycle typically occurs in the morning, when children are most alert and focused[1]. Teachers act as guides, introducing new materials and activities, but largely allowing children to direct their own learning[2]. Children are encouraged to repeat activities as many times as they wish, which reinforces learning and allows them to master skills at their own pace[3]. This approach is supported by research showing that challenging games and activities can enhance engagement, flow, and immersion in learning[4].
