Montessori: Children Have Their Own Laws Of Development
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
4 pages in length. The foundation behind Maria Montessori's approach to teaching is based upon the child possessing his own laws of development and as such, it is imperative for adults to allow this individual progression to occur at its own pace and not impose external pressure upon him (Montessori, 2009). Children are not robots who can be expected to perform specific developmental tasks at preset periods but rather are each unique in their capacity and desire to reach certain stages of mental, emotional, cognitive and physical development. To impose preconceived notions and stringent timelines upon the overall developmental process is to demand performance where ability does not yet exist. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
