Montessori Explained
Maria Montessori saw the child as the creator of him/herself:
“The foundation of education must be based on the following facts: that the joy of the child is in accomplishing things great for his age; that the real satisfaction of the child is to give maximum effort to the task in hand ; that happiness consists in well-directed activity of body and mind in the way of excellence ; that strength of mind and body and spirit is acquired by exercise and experience”
