"The Montessori Method" by Maria Montessori is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This influential work introduces an innovative approach to child education and pedagogy, articulating the principles underlying Montessori's educational philosophy, particularly as applied in "Children's Houses." The book explores the importance of fostering independence and allowing natural learning processes, which have become foundational concepts in modern educational practices. At the start of the book, Montessori reflects on the state of education and the need for a new pedagogy rooted in scientific principles. She critiques traditional schooling for its rigid structures and the application of discipline that stifles a child's natural inclinations. By advocating for an environment where children can learn through observation and hands-on experiences, she emphasizes the significance of freedom and spontaneity in a child’s development. Montessori argues that true education must respect and nurture the individual child's spirit, preparing the teacher to observe and understand the child’s unique path to knowledge.
