Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Montessori Method It is more than twelve years ago that an illuminating course in Educational Psychology which I took under Professor John Dewey, then of the University of Chicago, directed what had until that time been on my part only a general interest in psychology, toward the specific question of the relation of various educational theories to the truths of child psychology. The interest so directed was further stimulated by my relations with Professor Thorndike of the Teacher's College in connection with his courses in methods there. The subsequent years of experience as principal of a school which includes a kindergarten and primary department in its curriculum, and as a teacher of elementary psychology to the older pupils, have given concrete opportunities for putting theories into practice.

Download or read book The Montessori Method and the American School Classic Reprint written by Florence Elizabeth Ward and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Montessori Method and the American School The Montessori Method has been given so much publicity by the American press that its peculiarities have become quite generally known, and one who attempts to describe them further is in danger of repetition. It is my aim, however, simply to offer to those who have a practical interest in its intimate details some of the impressions received through an investigation of the Method at first hand, as well as some results of experiments made among children with whom I work daily at the Iowa State Teachers College. The talks herein published are the substance of discussions conducted with classes, following my return from Rome. It is not their purpose to crystallize attention upon some one feature of the equipment or upon some one element of the method, but rather to promote the study of the principles underlying the entire equipment and the entire method. All pedagogical history proves that reforms in education develop slowly. It would be a curious anomaly if the Children's House did not conform to this law of evolution. Its best friends are those who willingly submit it to the comparisons possible because of work done in the exceptionally good home, good kindergarten and good primary school of to-day, and to the tests that the psychological laboratories are urging for all educational procedure.

Download or read book Dr Montessori s Own Handbook written by Maria Montessori and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-03-07 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the truly great books on early childhood development, Maria Montessori's illustrated guide was written nearly a century ago in response to thousands of requests from American parents and teachers. In it, the noted educator provided copious information on how to use familiar, simple, easy-to-obtain classroom materials to make any home an effective learning environment. It was to be a "children's house," where youngsters would be their own masters, and free to learn at their own pace. Sound cylinders, sandpaper letters, and numerical rods became features of the typical Montessori classroom. Designed to hone the child’s visual, auditory, and tactile perceptions, tools such as these enabled the child to experiment and learn through the powers of observation, recognition, judgment, and classification. An essential teaching aid for parents and educators, this handbook features sections on teaching music, arithmetic and language, and developing sensory and motor skills.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Montessori Method and the Kindergarten Any estimate of Madame Montessori's work, to be of practical value to the mother or teacher, will necessarily involve a comparison between the Montessori method and that Of the kindergarten, since the kindergarten is the only system of organized educational work for young children that has so far received general recognition. It is important to remind ourselves, however, that the welfare of the little child is Of far more significance than the mere settlement of rival claims between the kindergarten and Montessori. Only by taking this larger view of the subject can we come to any just or satisfactory estimate of Dr. Montessori's education of young chil dren, and that will'be the chief consideration in this bulletin rather than an extended account Of her psychological view, which is not new. It will be necessary to show, however, how the latter has shaped the former. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VI SENSORY EDUCATION "A game is a free activity ordered to a definite end." In the theory of education set forth in Dr. Montessori's book, the education of the senses takes a very important place, because it is only by the perfecting of the sensorymotor-nervous system that the fully developed conscious life of the individual is gained, which is our ideal. We have discussed, in a separate chapter, the principles and methods of her system of muscular education, but we must never forget that the two processes, sensory and motor, are united in the human being, and education in them both goes on simultaneously. Education has long concerned itself with the motor side of our nature. "To learn by doing" is a familiar precept. But the sensory side, while not in any sense neglected, has not until now been scientifically studied, so that a full realisation of the possibilities of sense education has been lacking. Montessori, however, in her theory of the value of sense training must not be classed with Pestalozzi, for she is, I think, in accord with those American psychologists who believe the theory of formal discipline to be false. Her purpose is to give each child a full sensory life, as early as possible, that his brain cells will develop and paths of association between them be formed. Higher powers of observation, conception and apperception come as the result of a rich sensory experience. Herbart taught us the value of apperception; that is, the recognition in the new of some element already perceived; but that sensation must be the foundation for perception, apperception, and conception, he would have admitted as freely as does Montessori. The Montessori method, in its appeal to all the senses and in practical devices for their...

Download or read book The Montessori Method written by Maria Montessori and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Montessori Method (1912) is a work on pedagogy by Maria Montessori. Originally written in her native Italian to describe the work she carried out at the Casa dei Bambini in Rome, the book was translated into English during a period of increasing popularity for Montessori and her educational method in the United States. By 1913, over 100 Montessori schools had been opened in the United States, prompting the educator to travel to the country on a lecture tour in December that year. Today, there are thousands of schools and classrooms around the world dedicated to the use of her method. “All human victories, all human progress, stand upon the inner force. Thus a young student may become a great doctor if he is spurred to his study by an interest which makes medicine his real vocation. But if he works in the hope of an inheritance, or of making a desirable marriage, or if indeed he is inspired by any material advantage, he will never become a true master or a great doctor, and the world will never make one step forward because of his work.” Through years of working with children as a physician and educator, Maria Montessori developed a unique method of scientific pedagogy emphasizing personal growth, individuality, psychology, and hands-on experience. First at her Casa dei Bambini and later at thousands of schools around the world, the Montessori method changed education for countless students and teachers alike, fostering understanding and respect without sacrificing the structures needed for children to grow into successful, confident adults. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Maria Montessori’s The Montessori Method is a classic of pedagogical literature reimagined for modern readers.
Download or read book The Montessori Manual written by Dorothy Canfield Fisher and published by . This book was released on 1913 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now a year since the publication of "The Montessori Mother," a year which has brought to the author of that volume a great mass of correspondence and innumerable personal interviews with American mothers interested in the new ideas about the education of young children. This first-hand experience with a wide circle of searchers for information has shown me the need, in the case of mothers untrained in educational methods, of a more concrete and definite and less philosophical presentation of the ideas of the great Italian teacher. This unpretentious manual is designed to meet that need and to be used by mothers of young children. It is also hoped that teachers will receive valuable hits from the suggestions in its pages, which their greater experience and professional training will enable them to expand into school-room exercises. - Foreword.
