Montessori: Educational Material for Early Childhood and Schools

by Romana Schneider (Editor), Thomas Muller (Editor)

In 1907, Italian educator and physician Maria Montessori introduced a revolutionary method for teaching young children of Rome’s working class. Today, there are thousands of Montessori schools throughout the world. This book, one of the first to include original photographs of the first Montessori schools in Germany, Austria and America, explores the main aspects of her theory of education, focusing primarily on the learning materials that are so critical to carrying out Montessori’s philosophy.
