Customer Reviews:
helpful and thought provoking     
This author shows a thorough understanding and love of the montessori method. I found her books inspiring and helpful as a back up while I was in college training to be a Montessori directress and I reccommend them to parents of my pupils who are interested in backing up the things their children are absorbing in school. Also a nice read for those who are choosing to homeschool.
I need help     
I studied in the US at JU, Jacksonville University, Florida. I've done my studies in marketing.

Now, my sister graduated as a kindergarten teacher, and she can open her own kindergarten. I own a piece of land, and I was thinking of building my own house.

When I really thought about it, I changed my mind to open a kindergarten. Going through my own research on kindergartens, I found out about Montesseri. I really would like your help and suggestions. If possible I would appreciate if you mail me some information about Montesseri and its unique strategies.

I'm not very smart when it comes to kindergarten. This is the reason why I need to get in contact with anybody in this field at Montesseri, so I can get some suggestions and opinion on how to create a unique kindergarten on this beautiful island.

Please, somebody mail me at queeng_7@hotmail.com or gcoffi@yahoo.com.

I really would appreciate your help.

Thanks, sincerely, Geselle Coffi (Curacao, Netherlands Antilles).

This is an excellent in home reference guide.     
I use this book as an in home reference guide for myself as the parent of a Montessori student. When my child or his teacher tells me about a new activity begun at school, I get the details reviewing this book. I also use it to get ideas for supplimenting his education during the summer. Love this book!
Use Montessori Exercises to Supplement Public School     
This is a follow-up book to E. Hainstock's earlier work, Teaching Montessori in the Home: The Pre-school Years. She emphasizes reading and mathematics exercises in this book, and also specifically says that she intends these exercises to supplement children's learning experiences in a public school environment.

As she did in her previous book, Hainstock displays the materials needed for the exercises and shows how to make them with items that are easily obtained. She again goes through the exercises in great detail, showing each level step by step.

This book could be useful for someone teaching a school-aged child at home, but it lacks many items which are present in an elementary Montessori classroom, such as geography materials, botany and zoology materials, and art and music materials. For this reason it is best used as the author intended, as a supplement to a child's traditional educational experience.
