Just What I Was Looking For
|
|
Just the book I've been looking for. It explains clearly how to use the Montessori materials, so even someone who has never had any training in the Montessori Method can learn to use them.

No Montessori home should be without it!

This book has been the clearest and most concise version of the Montessori method i have found yet. The introduction is excellent and seems to cover all the history of Maria Montessori and her philosophy without confusing issues or making it over complex. It gave me a real feeling of being able to implement her ideas in my home without having to hugely change the way my daughters lived. I found the descriptions of the materials and how to present them excellent; simple, as the presentations should be, ordered, so i knew what I should tackle next and with lots of varieties, so i could make good use of the materials i made or bought. I found a lot of confidence from this book - partly in my parenting techniques and partly in my ability to take to the diy stores and make my own materials using his descriptions! If you are going to have one Montessori book - have this one!
