Parents Guide to the Montessori Classroom

Here Aline Wolf describes, in modern terms, the meaning of Montessori. This book is ideal for parents with practical information when considering a Montessori school and an excellent preparation for observing a Montessori class. It describes in sequence the Montessori materials for children aged three through six, giving the purpose and procedure for each of the Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math and Geography materials. Illustrated with photographs of children using each piece of the equipment. New revised edition includes brief descriptions of toddler and elementary programs.
This book compliments Lesley Britton's 'Montessori Play and Learn' as it is concerned with the Montessori classroom equipment, whereas Play and Learn aims at explaining the exercises you can do with your child in the home.
