As an expression of personal and group identity, recognizing holidays conveys to others what teachers and their school value. Each child constructs a complex identity through experiences with their environment, "including" the holidays observed and valued by their family and broader culture. When a school community represents a child's family culture by intentionally learning about a holiday important to that family, the message of inclusion is clear to all, and the child's universal need for belonging and a sense of significance is amplified. Preparing an environment as a mirror that accurately reflects each child's identity through an equitable holiday lens aligns with the Montessori mission to free the child's potential. In this article Tammy Oesting collected wisdom, stories, and resources on holidays from esteemed colleagues and Montessori guides Seemi Abdullah, Shalisa Agam, Kim Anh Nguy?n Anderson, Lucy Canzoneri-Golden, Tracey Cordero, Britt Hawthorne, Tatenda Blessing Muchiriri, Ashley Speed, and Maati Wafford. Their words illustrate principles for implementing an equitable holiday approach and the manifestation of critical consciousness in action.
