Publisher's Synopsis
""A Guide to the Montessori Method"" is a book written by Ellen Yale Stevens in 1913. The Montessori method is an educational approach developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, an Italian physician, in the early 1900s. The method is based on the idea that children learn best through hands-on experiences and exploration. In this book, Stevens provides an overview of the Montessori method and its key principles. She explains how the method emphasizes the importance of providing children with a prepared environment that is conducive to learning, and how it encourages independence, self-directed learning, and respect for others. Stevens also describes the various materials and activities used in the Montessori method, such as the sensorial materials, practical life activities, and language materials. She provides guidance on how to use these materials effectively and how to create a Montessori-inspired environment at home or in the classroom. Overall, ""A Guide to the Montessori Method"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about this innovative educational approach.
