Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh, comprehensive biography of the pioneering educator and activist who changed the way we look at children’s minds, from the author of Oriana Fallaci. Born in 1870 in Chiaravalle, Italy, Maria Montessori would grow up to embody almost every trait men of her era detested in the fairer sex. She was self-confident, strong-willed, and had a fiery temper at a time when women were supposed to be soft and pliable. She studied until she became a doctor at a time when female graduates in Italy provoked outright scandal. She never wanted to marry or have children—the accepted destiny for all women of her milieu in late nineteenth-century bourgeois Rome—and when she became pregnant by a colleague of hers, she gave up her son to continue pursuing her career. At around age thirty, Montessori was struck by the condition of children in the slums of Rome’s San Lorenzo neighborhood, and realized what she wanted to do with her life: change the school, and therefore the world, through a new approach to the child’s mind. In spite of the resistance she faced from all sides—scientists accused her of being too mystical, and the clergy of being too scientific, traditionalists of giving children too much freedom, and anarchists of giving them too much structure—she would garner acclaim and establish the influential Montessori method, which is now practiced throughout the world. A thorough, nuanced portrait of this often controversial woman, The Child Is the Teacher is the first biographical work on Maria Montessori written by an author who is not a member of the Montessori movement, but who has been granted access to original letters, diaries, notes, and texts written by Montessori herself, including an array of previously unpublished material.

Download or read book Dr Montessori s Own Handbook written by Maria Montessori and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dr. Montessori has performed a real service in preparing this guide to her method. The handbook will now proceed to take its place as the real exposition of the Montessori system." -Boston Transcript "A full and clear account of the famous method of child education." -Saturday Review "Contains much the same material as did 'The Montessori Method,' but in a clear form." -Atheneum "The number of books on Dr. Montessori's new educational theories continues to increase....We now have "Dr. Montessori's Own Handbook' of the system specially written by the expert herself as a guide to teachers and parents." -The American Review of Reviews "Many enthusiastic prophets have arisen to expound Dr. Montessori's ideas to an interested public, but this manual for classroom or home bears the thumb print of authority. Dr. Montessori, herself, briefly outlines the system (exhaustively set forth in her 'Montessori Method'), describes her apparatus and explains very clearly its use. She also tells again the surprising results, the spontaneous discipline and obedience, obtained among children from three to six in the Children's House, where the organization of their work is complete, and where (all cause of rebellion being eliminated) their 'freedom is almost absolute.' Dr. Montessori's means include an environment suited to a child's physical needs, and didactic material fitted to his intellectual wants; through which he may train his senses by the exercise of observation, comparison and judgment, quicken his psychic qualities and become master of mind and body. She would have the child's eye discover that control of the error in placing his cylinders or geometrical insets lies in the material itself. The author insists that any one who would guide the child in use of the sensory exercise should first experiment with the material herself, and realize the difficulties the child will encounter. The book would help the mother who was heard to say, 'I became so interested in reading 'The Montessori Method' I sent for the whole outfit. It's come, but I haven't dared even show it to Jane.'" -Home Progress "Supplements by a clearer and more simple description of author's famous method of child education." -New York State Library Ninety-Seventh Annual Report "An authentic manual of the Montessori system written by Dr. Montessori herself as a guide to teachers and parents. It is a concisely written volume of little more than a hundred pages which contains a clear account of the method, and includes a description of the Montessori apparatus with instructions for its use." -Booklist
