POST 7: AN EXPERT ON MY FIELD
Hello
everybody, today I’m going to talk about an expert who I really admire and inspire
me a lot, she is Maria Montessori. She was born on August 31, 1870 in Italy. At
the time when she was growing up, she discovered her aptitude for the mathematics
and her love for the sciences, more exactly, biology. In those times, Italy had
conservative values with the genre roles but time after she became the first
female doctor in Italy.
She is
famous for her early childhood education research; she created a methodology
based on Biological/ psychological, religion and
pedagogical elements. The Montessori Methodology has a curriculum that
is divided into five key areas of learning: practical life, sensorial,
language, mathematics and culture. And other important thing about the
methodology that she created is the teacher, because they are not the center of
the attention here, they just act like a guide to the children and they let
them be independent about what they want to learn.
I
like her because I love the methodology that she created, but why I love it?
Because I think that the most important thing in this method is that children
feel good and happy in their learning, choosing and having the freedom about
what they want to learn, being the educator their guide.
So that's it! I hope you like it!
See you soon, bye!
Roma.
oh! Romanett, i love it Maria Montessori was a great forefather to the pre-school education.
