Course Overview
Here is an opportunity to take what you will learn about the stages of the child’s development as seen by Maria Montessori and apply this to the children in your world!
With each stage you will begin to look at classrooms that provide adequate experiences for the child’s developmental growth.
“The more you know about these stages, the better you can work with your child and keep a calmer home or classroom”. Mary Ellen Maunz
The final unit is devoted to a series of supplementary documents examining current child development information, which helps to validate Montessori’s work.
