The basic concept behind Montessori’s educational work was that of providing children
with a suitable environment in which to live and learn..

i think this statement really means a lot to me!

why? because in our society.. people create/build kindergartens for the sake

of money making.. they forgotten the actual reason which is educating the child

basically, "teachers" these days do not play their role enough to understand the

child's basic needs. They just neglect the child if he/she finds him/her to be

not fast-paced to catch up with the syllabus. What they don't understand is that

EVERY child has their own learning speed.. some may be excellent.. and some

may just be slow..

suitable environment to live and learn is where the child is able to explore the

outside world such as running around, touching insects or picking up leaves which are

on the ground. These are basic things where the child learns. If a child is always

cooped up in the classroom or the house, what benefits may the child gain? He/She

might just end up being an introvert! ><
