How was Montessori Developed?

• The Montessori Method was developed in the 1900s
  by Maria Montessori.
• She based her method on the premise that each
  child is born with a drive to develop himself.
• A child learns best from his physical activity
  and senses if given freedom to discover, explore,
  and create in an enriched environment with
  supportive encouragement.

Why Montessori Materials?

• Each Montessori material develops only one
  perception at a time.
• Every material has a controlled-error component,
  which places the responsibility for finding
  answers on the child, rather than creating a
  dependency on the teacher. 
• Montessori materials educate the child's senses,
  which makes him or her alert in adapting the
  knowledge received in school to the outside
  world.
• In short, the material is critical in rendering
  the child independent and self-motivated by
  allowing him/her to develop according to his/her
  own personality and rhythm.

What is Montessori Classroom?

• The classroom is partitioned into major elements
  practical life, sensory perception, language,
  mathematics, cultural subjects and science, and
  biology.
• It is this openness to new information that
  creates the wonderfully supportive atmosphere in
  a Montessori classroom, where teachers are guides
  and observers.
• Because of their Montessori experience, children
  will be open to learning new information when
  they grow up.
