## Description

The Montessori Method [Montessori, Maria] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Montessori Method

Review: a classic work on pedagogy - Here, Maria Montessori introduces a scientific approach to pedagogy. The Montessori schools which she established and developed are intended for children three to seven years of age. The children are allowed as much freedom as possible and are provided with "didactic materials" which are various artifacts which they can use to educate themselves. They are supervised by a single directress whose primary task is to observe the children and direct their efforts by explaining to them how various didactic materials are used (it's very simple, but nothing is obvious to a young child). This book offers some valuable concete advice, but its primary use to me was as an introduction to the approach of scientific pedagogy. The basic premises as I understand them are that (1) children have a natural desire to learn and (2) one can learn how to live in freedom only by being free. These premises are fully supported and fleshed out in the book. The Montessori method achieved startling results, with four year old children (on average) learning to be masters of themselves, disciplined, benevolent, self-confident, and capable of reading and writing. Every educator should be familiar with Maria Montessori's work.

Definitely a good ready!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Guide!
*by R***D on September 19, 2023*

This is such a great guide if you’re looking to incorporate Montessori education for your child! It reads more like a text book in its technicalities but is easy to follow along and can help answer any questions you might have. I recommend getting The Montessori Baby by Simone Davies as an accompanying book.
