I was blessed to visit with some “old” college friends this weekend!  They were interested in learning more about the Good Shepherd Catechesis and Montessori theory in general, and so for those who haven’t heard of it before, here are some resources:

1. The National Association of the GSC website here (also on my blogroll) is helpful, plus you can search for local atria (classrooms.)
2. There is extensive teacher training for this program, but for those interested in a simple, basic at-home user-friendly manual, this is the one I’m personally using.  It’s the home catechesis manual listed at the top of the page.  This is also the company that we purchased our altar materials from.
3. For more ideas on implementing Montessori in the home or for “pre-school” education in the home, browse the internet, request catalogs, and check out books in the library.  I can recommend several favorites.  Hope this helps!
