Maria Montessori

En este texto Maria Montessori explica el importante papel que desempeña el movimiento del niño para su desarrollo y crecimiento.Cuando el niño va creciendo, sobre todo cuando ya es capaz de caminar y por tanto tiene las manos mas libres, comienza a descubrir el mundo a traves del movimiento y la exploracion: abre y cierra cajones, toma objetos y utiliza sus manos como medio de comunicacion.Sin embargo, segun explica Maria Montessori, suele darse la situacion de que padres y educadores dan mas importancia al lenguaje centrandose en los primeros balbuceos, en las primeras palabras o en las frases. Sin embargo, el otro gran avance evolutivo, el movimiento de la mano, pasa desapercibido cuando es, en realidad, una de las primeras herramientas de las que dispone el niño para conocer su entorno y las personas que lo rodean.Gracias a estas paginas, tanto padres como educadores entenderan la importancia de estimular en el niño el uso de las manos y del cuerpo mediante tecnicas y ejercicios que ayudaran con su sano desarrollo, especialmente en un mundo hipertecnologico como en el que vivimos en la actualidad.

Fin dal principio, Maria Montessori riconobbe limportanza della musica per lo sviluppo cognitivo del bambino e per questo volle che in tutte le sue scuole venisse offerta uneducazione musicale approfondita e basata sulla formazione della persona. Individuo nella sua allieva Anna Maccheroni, musicista e insegnante di talento, una collega con una profonda comprensione dei principi montessoriani e con il necessario background musicale. Ne scaturi un originale approccio alla musica, basato sulla consapevolezza che i bambini imparano prima di tutto attraverso lesperienza e i loro sensi: orecchio, occhio, voce, mano, corpo e anima sono coinvolti simultaneamente, e in generale tutto il bambino partecipa in modo attivo allesperienza musicale.Questo libro custodisce le loro profonde riflessioni sulla centralita dellesperienza musicale ed e al contempo uneredita da accogliere e una responsabilita da portare avanti.

"La scoperta del bambino" e un libro di Maria Montessori che si puo considerare riassuntivo delle esperienze fatte e delle conclusioni alle quali la celebre pedagogista e giunta dopo decenni di osservazioni e che lhanno portata a delineare un metodo pedagogico del tutto innovativo. Lautrice analizza lo "stato" della pedagogia dei suoi tempi giungendo a farci comprendere come le potenzialita del bambino debbano essere la base della sua formazione. Nel testo viene dato risalto al nuovo compito dellinsegnante, ai concetti di "liberta" e "disciplina" che devono ispirare lazione educativa, in un contesto dove centrale e il rispetto per la spontaneita del bambino e importante lapproccio con la natura. Non per ultimo viene illustrato il materiale strutturato che favorisce anche i rudimenti della lettura, della scrittura e dellaritmetica. Un libro quanto mai attuale che costituisce una valida riflessione e un pilastro nella storia della pedagogia.

If a preface is a light which should serve to illumine the contents of a volume, I choose, not words, but human figures to illustrate this little book intended to enter families where children are growing up. I therefore recall here, as an eloquent symbol, Helen Keller and Mrs. Anne Sullivan Macy, who are, by their example, both teachers to myselfand, before the world, living documents of the miracle in education.In fact, Helen Keller is a marvelous example of the phenomenon common to all human beings: the possibility of the liberation of the imprisoned spirit of man by the education of the senses. Here lies the basis of the method of education of which the book gives a succinct idea.If one only of the senses sufficed to make of Helen Keller a woman of exceptional culture and a writer, who better than she proves the potency of that method of education which builds on the senses? If Helen Keller attained through exquisite natural gifts to an elevated conception viii of the world, who better than she proves that in the inmost self of man lies the spirit ready to reveal itself?Helen, clasp to your heart these little children, since they, above all others, will understand you. They are your younger brothers: when, with bandaged eyes and in silence, they touch with their little hands, profound impressions rise in their consciousness, and they exclaim with a new form of happiness: "I see with my hands." They alone, then, can fully understand the drama of the mysterious privilege your soul has known. When, in darkness and in silence, their spirit left free to expand, their intellectual energy redoubled, they become able to read and write without having learnt, almost as it were by intuition, they, only they, can understand in part the ecstasy which God granted you on the luminous path of learning.Maria Montessori.

In the period that has elapsed between the publication of the Italian and American editions, I have had, with my pupils, the opportunity to simplify and render more exact certain practical details of the method, and to gather additional observations concerning discipline. The results attest the vitality of the method and the necessity for an [Pg viii]extended scientific collaboration in the near future, and are embodied in two new chapters written for the American edition. I know that my method has been widely spoken of in America, thanks to Mr. S. S. McClure, who has presented it through the pages of his well-known magazine. Indeed, many Americans have already come to Rome for the purpose of observing personally the practical application of the method in my little schools. If, encouraged by this movement, I may express a hope for the future, it is that my work in Rome shall become the centre of an efficient and helpful collaboration.To the Harvard professors who have made my work known in America and to McClures Magazine, a mere acknowledgment of what I owe them is a barren response; but it is my hope that the method itself, in its effect upon the children of America, may prove an adequate expression of my gratitude.Maria Montessori.

La mente del bambino - Mente assorbente e un saggio di Maria Montessori. Il saggio parte dalle proposizioni della biologia (sviluppo embrionale del bambino), dalla legge naturale che lo predispone ad un libero comportamento, per addentrarsi nella gestazione spirituale del bambino, da zero a sei anni. Vengono quindi definiti i caratteri, i limiti, e le insospettate possibilita della prima forma della mente del bambino (chiamata dalla Montessori "Mente Assorbente"), che tutto riceve e ritiene. Maria Montessori chiuse con questo libro il suo lungo ciclo di pensiero.Maria Tecla Artemisia Montessori, nota come Maria Montessori (Chiaravalle, 31 agosto 1870 Noordwijk, 6 maggio 1952) e stata uneducatrice, pedagogista, filosofa, medico, neuropsichiatra infantile e scienziata italiana, internazionalmente nota per il metodo educativo che prende il suo nome, adottato in migliaia di scuole dellinfanzia, elementari, medie e superiori in tutto il mondo. Fu tra le prime donne a laurearsi in medicina in Italia.

In this book, the fundamental building blocks of the Montessori method are described, at school and within the walls of the home: The Secret of Childhood outlines, step by step and in a clear and exciting manner, the childs entire journey towards the awakening of his or her consciousness. In pages that continue to amaze for their modernity, Maria Montessori describes the instinctive and mysterious work done in our first years of life, the free growth of the spirit in youth, and does not fail to offer practical and loving advice to those who, from parents to teachers, are responsible for growing up and have the world of childhood at heart. It is a journey into the practical and emotional intelligence of children that allows us, amidst toys and lies, love and misunderstandings, to discover how childish the world of adults can be at times, and how profound the love and intelligence of our children instead.

In diesem Buch werden die grundlegenden Bausteine der Montessori-Methode in der Schule und in den eigenen vier Wanden beschrieben: Das Geheimnis der Kindheit skizziert Schritt fur Schritt und auf klare und spannende Weise den gesamten Weg des Kindes zum Erwachen seines Bewusstseins. Auf Seiten, die auch heute noch durch ihre Modernitat uberraschen, beschreibt Maria Montessori die instinktive und geheimnisvolle Arbeit, die in den ersten Lebensjahren geleistet wird, das freie Wachstum des Geistes in der Jugend, und versaumt es nicht, all jenen, die - von den Eltern bis zu den Lehrern - fur das Heranwachsen verantwortlich sind und denen die Welt der Kindheit am Herzen liegt, praktische und liebevolle Ratschlage zu geben. Es ist eine Reise in die praktische und emotionale Intelligenz der Kinder, die uns inmitten von Spielzeug und Lugen, Liebe und Missverstandnissen entdecken lasst, wie kindisch die Welt der Erwachsenen manchmal sein kann und wie tief die Liebe und Intelligenz unserer Kinder stattdessen ist.

Maria Montessori, die Begrunderin einer revolutionaren Erziehungsmethode, ist auch heute noch ein Bezugspunkt fur Eltern und Lehrer. Dieser Band vereint erstmals vier ihrer bedeutendsten Werke: "Der Geist des Kindes", "Das Kind in der Familie", "Wie man das menschliche Potenzial erzieht" und "Erziehung fur eine neue Welt". In der Uberzeugung, dass Erziehung nicht erdruckend sein sollte, sondern im Gegenteil eine wertvolle Hilfe fur das Leben und die Entwicklung des Potenzials jedes Einzelnen sein kann, ermutigt Maria Montessoris Lehre das Kind, seinen eigenen Charakter zu offenbaren, seinen eigenen Neigungen zu folgen und seine unerschopfliche Kreativitat zu nutzen. Die Methode" ist ein unschatzbarer Leitfaden fur die Erziehung unserer Kinder in einer positiven und heiteren Umgebung und bietet all jenen, denen das Gleichgewicht und die Freude der Kleinen am Herzen liegen, theoretische und praktische Einblicke.

SAS;- All rights reserved."The child is endowed with unknown powers, which can lead to a bright future." In the first years of life, our mind is able to absorb, create, learn in a profound and completely different way than we will do in adulthood. It is on the basis of this pivotal principle of her method that Maria Montessori delves into the mystery of a crucial period in the formation of our identity, at the stage that defines the characters and unsuspected possibilities of future life. With this work, published for the first time in India, where the method met with immediate success - "We are members of the same family", Mahatma Gandhi said of Maria Montessori -, the foundations are laid for an education that must never be constriction and oppression but an aid to life and the development of all the immense potential with which the child is endowed.
