"Children are taught." This simple but profound truth inspiredMontessori
to search for educational reform (methodology, psychology, teaching, and
teacher training) based all in his care by encouraging one
himself who built their own learning, so each piece of equipment,
each year, each method developed was based on what she observed in
that children were "naturally", ie related to the capacity (almost
without effort) of children to absorb knowledge from their surroundings, and
as the interest that these were for materials that could be manipulated by other
own, without help from adults
