The Montessori Method is a book written by Maria Montessori, an Italian physician and educator. The book outlines the educational philosophy and teaching methods developed by Montessori, which are based on the belief that children learn best through self-directed exploration and discovery. The book explains Montessori's approach to education, which emphasizes the importance of creating a prepared environment that is conducive to learning and allows children to develop at their own pace. It also discusses the role of the teacher in the Montessori method, who is seen as a guide and facilitator rather than a traditional instructor. The Montessori Method covers a wide range of topics related to education, including the importance of sensory experiences in learning, the development of language skills, and the use of hands-on materials to promote understanding of abstract concepts. Montessori also discusses the importance of fostering independence and self-discipline in children, as well as the need for a holistic approach to education that takes into account the physical, emotional, and intellectual needs of each child. Overall, The Montessori Method is a seminal work in the field of education that continues to influence teaching practices around the world. It offers a comprehensive and practical guide to Montessori's innovative approach to education, which has been shown to be effective in promoting lifelong learning and personal growth.1912. Montessori, the first Italian woman M.D., was one of the great pioneers in studying the intellectual development of the young child. Only through movement and manipulation, through thinking with the senses, does the child proceed to later abstract thinking. The doctor carried her insight; that children learned through all their senses, to its logical conclusion. On their way to cleanliness, order, poise, and conversation, children use the Montessori materials-inherently logical and aesthetically pleasing-to develop a sense for order and logical thought, and a firm foundation for success in learning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
