Thoughts about blogging...

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"It is after this that the child, who can now walk and feels confident of his strength, begins to notice the actions of those about him, and tries to do the same things. In this period he imitates not because someone has told him to do so, but because of a deep inner need which he feels."

(The Absorbent Mind, p.143)

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"At about a year and a half, the child discovers another fact, and that is that each thing has its own name."

(The Absorbent Mind, p.113)

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"At one year of age the child says his first intentional word…his babbling has a purpose, and this intention is a proof of conscious intelligence…He becomes ever more aware that language refers to his surroundings, and his wish to master it consciously becomes also greater….Subconsciously and unaided, he strains himself to learn, and this effort makes his success all the more astonishing."

(The Absorbent Mind, p. 111)

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"….the tiny child’s absorbent mind finds all its nutriment in its surroundings. Here it has to locate itself, and build itself up from what it takes in. Especially at the beginning of life must we, therefore, make the environment as interesting and attractive as we can. The child, as we have seen, passes through successive phases of development and in each of these his surroundings have an important – though different – part to play. In none have they more importance than immediately after birth."

(The Absorbent Mind, p. 88)

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"Growth and psychic development are therefore guided by: the absorbent mind, the nebulae and the sensitive periods with their respective mechanisms. It is these that are hereditary and characteristic of the human species. But the promise they hold can only be fulfilled through the experience of free activity conducted on the environment."

(The Absorbent Mind, p.87)

09/03/2018

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"How does he achieve this independence? He does it by means of a continuous activity. How does he become free? By means of constant effort. …we know that development results from activity. The environment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences."

(The Absorbent Mind, p. 84)

08/03/2018

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"It follows that the child can only develop fully by means of experience on his environment. We call such experience “work”."

(The Absorbent Mind, p.80)

07/03/2018

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"Once the child can speak, he can express himself and no longer depends on others to guess his needs. He finds himself in touch with human society, for people can only communicate by means of language.…Very soon afterward, at one year of age, the child begins to walk….So man develops by stages, and the freedom he enjoys comes from these steps towards independence taken in turn…Truly it is nature which affords the child the opportunity to grow; it is nature which bestows independence upon him and guides him to success in achieving his freedom."

(The Absorbent Mind, p.78)

06/03/2018

Thoughts from Maria Montessori:

"The child’s conquests of independence are the basic steps in what is called his “natural development”. In other words, if we observe natural development with sufficient care, we see that it can be defined as the gaining of successive levels of independence."

(The Absorbent Mind, p. 76)
