Meg Fedorowicz

Meg Fedorowicz, who has been with Meadow Montessori School since its inception 22 years ago, now divides her teaching time between our Intermediate East class here at Meadow Montessori and the MMTEC (Michigan Montessori Teacher Education Center) teacher training center where her students are aspiring Montessori 9-12 teachers. Meg is a lecturer in writing, geography, history, and the sciences, and recently spent three weeks in Brazil training teachers in these areas for OMB-- the Brazilian Montessori organization. She has lectured across the country at AMS national conferences, and traveled to Cuba wih a group of Montessori educators to give presentations on the Montessori Method in an educational exchange. The presentations were given to a teacher's college, a university, a daycare center, and the ministry of education.

Getting more teachers to start teaching physical science at younger ages is a personal mission of hers. To that end, she has written a book for teachers of young children. It is a physical science curriculum for 3-6 year olds, with an emphasis on experiments and demonstrations.

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 in our school store.

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, and Rosemary is an Intermediate at MMS.
