Dr. Montessori's Own Handbook (1914) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781164708247)

Dr. Montessori's Own Handbook is a seminal work by Maria Montessori, the founder of the Montessori method of education. Originally published in 1914, this book provides a comprehensive overview of Montessori's philosophy, methodology, and approach to education. In the book, Montessori emphasizes the importance of creating a learning environment that is child-centered, where children are free to explore and learn at their own pace. She also discusses the role of the teacher as a facilitator, rather than a strict authority figure, and the importance of allowing children to take ownership of their own learning. Throughout the book, Montessori provides practical advice and guidance on how to implement her method in the classroom, including detailed descriptions of the materials and activities that she developed to support children's learning. She also discusses the importance of observation and assessment in the Montessori method, and how teachers can use these tools to help children reach their full potential. Overall, Dr. Montessori's Own Handbook is a timeless classic that continues to inspire and inform educators around the world. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the Montessori method or in creating a more child-centered approach to education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
