The Montessori Method (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798880918263)

The Montessori method is characterized by an emphasis on self-directed activity on the part of the child and clinical observation on the part of the teacher. It stresses the importance of adapting the child's learning environment to his or her developmental level and of the role of physical activity in absorbing abstract concepts and practical skills. The Montessori method teaches reading via phonics and whole language the comparative benefits of which are currently being recognized.To all educators this book should prove most interesting. All who are fair-minded will admit the genius that shines from the pages which follow and the remarkable suggestiveness of Dr. Montessori's labors.-Henry W. Holmes
