Nurturing the Spirit: In Non-Sectarian Classrooms

The fundamental purpose of Maria Montessori's work was to bring about a more peaceful world by nurturing the spirit of the child. What is the meaning of the spirit? How does spirit differ from soul? How is nurturing the Spirit fundamentally different from teaching a specific religion? How can we nurture the spirit in non-sectarian classrooms? How can teachers become spiritually aware? How can we explain spiritual nurturing to parents? In this book, the author explores the questions in depth and shares many practical classroom suggestions from Montessori teachers.
