Meg Fedorowicz

Meg Fedorowicz, who has been with Meadow Montessori School since its inception 25 years ago, now divides her teaching time between our Intermediate East class here at Meadow Montessori and the MECA Teacher Training Center, where her students are aspiring young early childhood teachers. Meg is a lecturer in geography, history, and the sciences, and has trained teachers for OMB – the Brazilian Montessori organization in Brazil. She has lectured across the country at AMS national conferences, and has traveled to Cuba with a group of Montessori educators to give presentations on the Montessori Method .

Meg feels strongly that we need to start teaching physical science at younger ages, and consequently, she has written a book for teachers of young children. Meg’s physical science curriculum for 3-6 year olds, places an emphasis on experiments and demonstrations. The book was published in 2009 and is available through the Montessori Services Catalogue.

Meg recently coordinated an interactive display that was presented at the National AMS convention. It is titled Presenting the Cosmos to the Young Child, and Celma Perry, with Meg Fedorowicz, has written a companion booklet. These are available through the MECA website: www.MontessoriECA.org.

Meg completed her 3-6 training at MECA (Montessori Education Centers, Associated) in Chicago, IL; 9-12 training at MMTEC in Rochester Hills, MI.; received her BA in Studio Art at Oakland University; and her Masters Degree in Teacher Education at Siena Heights University, Adrian MI.

She and her husband, Fred, have three daughters. Anya and Elizabeth are MMS alums; Anya is currently the directress of Junior West, and Rosemary is in the middle school at MMS.
