Infant Education - Montessori home tools for the 1st year of life


A introduction to the acclaimed DVD work shop - Bringing Out the Brilliance In Your Infant : a practical guide for Montessori in the Home, by Montessori educator - Tamara Sheesley Balis. Transform your home into an infant's best classroom for optimal childhood development. The Montessori method refers to "the absorbent mind" to describe the learning process of the child. Whatever the child is exposed to, whatever the infant hears, sees and feels - these are all uploaded directly into the brain. The child is forming a life-long map of how the world feels looks and works. The foundation of the brain, body and spirit come directly from the family's interaction with the child and the child's environment. Our mission is to inspire parents who want to implement Montessori principles in their home, but aren't sure where or how to start - as well as those who already know and love Montessori, and want more tools for creating a Montessori family. We provide encouragement, guidance, support and a network for parents who are dedicated to raising happy, well-adjusted, independent and contributing world citizens. montessorifamilies.com

Fridays Child Montessori Preschool


fridayschildmontessori.com When making a decision about what Gold Coast Montessori pre-school school to enroll your child in, take a close look at Friday's Child Montessori, It is a pre-school that uses the Montessori method and lives the Montessori philosophy. The school opened in 1986 and is run by Laurena Rakauskas. Laurena and her staff encourage the children to do an activity correctly the first time and then allow them to experiment with it on their own. This reduces fear of failure and builds self esteem. They give the children the freedom to choose activities that they feel comfortable in doing. Each activity is designed to extend the child's knowledge and skills while challenging them. They encourage the children to work independently this allows their natural love of learning to blossom while building on their self motivation. Sometimes the children will form small groups and teach and motivate each other. Because Fridays Child teaches the children to cooperate, communicate and play together quietly they learn to deal with problems appropriately and without violence. Children educated in the Montessori method are happier, love learning and challenging themselves and ultimately become adults that value themselves and their contributions to Society. So when you are ready to see why Friday's Child is the best option for Gold Coast Montessori education, please visit them at http where you can make arrangements to book your free trial day.

Maria Montessori: Her Life and Legacy (Davidson Films, Inc.)


Born more than 25 years before Piaget or Vygotsky, Maria Montessori understood the constructivistic nature of all learning. As she observed children building their understanding of the world, she developed materials and approaches to education that are now used, in part, in most early childhood classrooms across the world. She realized the tremendous power of intrinsic motivation and sought to capitalize upon it, especially for children between the ages of three and six. Montessori's conception of the changing roles the classroom environment and teacher should play for students of various ages is presented with carefully shot film of toddler, preschool, elementary school and secondary classes at work in accredited Montessori schools. Students will also learn of Dr. Montessori's own dramatic life through archival visuals and will be challenged to think about what they think are the components of exemplary educational practice.
