By focusing on autonomy, self-discipline, and respect for each child's individuality, Montessori pedagogy creates an environment conducive to the flourishing of each student. This stands in contrast to traditional public school methods, which often follow a more directive and uniform model, with teacher-centered instruction. This approach fosters the holistic development of the child, cultivating curiosity, creativity, and self-confidence.<\/p>                                    <\/div>\n

She was an Italian physician and educator, who devoted her life to understanding how children develop socially, intellectually and spiritually. Through her observations in early childhood she discovered universal patterns of development in children. <\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35cfce8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"35cfce8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maria Montessori was one of the first female doctors of her time, successfully directing a psychiatric clinic of the University of Rome and working in an orthophrenic school. As Rome developed substantially, leading to the creation of ghettos around the city, Montessori began advocating that the lack of support for children was causing delinquency. In an attempt to prevent this misconduct, she was offered the opportunity to offer her guidance to the children of these areas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1907, she opened\u00a0the first Montessori school\u00a0in San Lorenzo, a poor district of Rome. With time, she observed that a nurturing environment gave the children the profound desire to learn and flourished when they were left free to direct their own learning. All of the notes she took during this time were later published in her first book \u201cThe Montessori Method\u201d which founded the Method.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Montessori was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1949, 1950 and 1951 and continued working, teaching and writing up to the time of her death. Over the past one hundred years children throughout the world have benefited from this educational approach that supports, nurtures, and protects natural development. Maria Montessori\u2019s legacy lives on in the children whose lives are touched by her discoveries about life.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32d16fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"32d16fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>recommended reading<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b33a5f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b33a5f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Absorbent Mind\u201d by Maria Montessori<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Discovery of the Child\u201d\u00a0 by Maria Montessori<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Secret of Childhood\u201d by Maria Montessori<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Child in the Family\u201d by Maria Montessori<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEducation and Peace\u201d by Maria Montessori<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHer Life and Work\u201d by E.M.

Curious and courteous, the students were hungry to learn and possessed a great ability to cooperate. This aroused my curiosity concerning their brain function.\u201d (1)\u00a0\u00a0Focused on children aged 5-12, Denervaud\u2019s research has confirmed that the pedagogical environment in which children aged 3-14 are educated can influence their manner of dealing with their own mistakes, ability to learn from them and the mistakes of others (2). When compared with outcomes of traditionally taught children who participate in repetitive tasks until they are sure of their results, Denervaud\u2019s research shows that Montessori educated children are less afraid to make mistakes, respond more quickly due to lack of fear of being wrong and are more creative in their solutions than students in traditional schooling (2). These differences manifested themselves through the students\u2019 behavior, responses, and by activating different areas in their brains when reflecting on activities (3). These results have been warmly welcomed by Montessori associations, such as ARDEM (4) and schools like Montessori Little Birds, Geneva, since they bring to the forefront what Montessori teachers, parents of Montessori trained children and those children themselves have always known: being able to learn from errors, helps children better adapt, learn and innovate in both educational settings and in life (3).<u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ea41ca elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0ea41ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>References (in French only)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b04fab6 elementor-vertical-align-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-box\" data-id=\"b04fab6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"http:\/\/montessorilittlebirds.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/css\/custom-widget-icon-box.min.css?ver=1774876138\">\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-icon-box-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rts.ch\/info\/suisse\/12211126-la-methode-montessori-favoriserait-la-gestion-de-lechec.html\" target=\"_blank\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t(1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0La m\u00e9thode Montessori favoriserait la gestion de l\u2019\u00e9chec -

Montessori has allowed her to develop into an independent little person. Her eagerness to learn has been relentlessly fueled at the right level, her curiosity has been satisfied with activities including art and music. Little Birds  has been the right choice for her. Her reading, writing and counting is very well-grounded, which will most certainly serve her in the years to come. The efficient bilingual immersion has definitely developed her appetite for English and clearly given her a strong base from which to master it in the future. We are extremely thankful for the way she has developed and grown over the last 3 years at Little Birds.
