Montessori At Home Activity Booklet
“The child has a different relation to his environment from ours... the child absorbs it. The things he sees are not just remembered; they form part of his soul. He incarnates in himself all in the world about him that his eyes see and his ears hear.”
Dr. Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind
Although it is many years old since it was created and promoted by the Italian educator Maria Montessori, at the end of the 19th century, it is still applied in some institutions and there are initiatives to expand the model.
The main characteristic of the Montessori method is the development of an aesthetic, orderly, simple and real environment, in which each object has a function and a purpose associated with the free learning of children. In this sense, a Montessori classroom brings together groups of children in periods of 3 years, something that is not done in traditional education classrooms.
