- Montessori? But what is that?
The Montessori method is an educational system that Maria Montessori - physician, educator and pedagogue - has developed, based on scientific observation of children's learning processes and the intuition that the basis of each educational method must respect the spontaneity of the child, which It is naturally predisposed to learning if left free to express itself.
In practice, children, having a natural drive for learning, should be left free to explore the world and know it through the senses, with "sensory" games that develop manuality and therefore intelligence.
Through the use of hands, children learn, know, feel, imagine. And they exercise. Manipulating a specially crafted three-dimensional object serves to properly develop the wrist and hand muscles, which will become very useful in the pre-writing phase and then in the cursive writing phase.
What parents and teachers can do is observe and respect their child's time, properly prepare the environment, and provide learning materials that are properly designed and tailored to their specific developmental requirements.
This is where Quercetti, comes in, one of the brands we represent. There are several games with this methodology that is increasingly in vogue.
