We at IMS also took part in the nationwide Read Aloud Day on 17 November. Under the motto "everything to do with books and the written word", the children were able to wander through the school building and take part in interesting activities.

Being attentive in natural environments - preferably forest, meadow and water - is a central part of cosmic education. Forest days are an integral part of the school day at IMS.

Sometimes I help, sometimes I am helped - sometimes I show something, sometimes I am shown something. Inter-grade learning and an exchange of children across different age groups is part of the Montessori pedagogy that is cultivated at IMS.
