TOP Principles of practical life exercises in Montessori
Here are my top Montessori principles that may be used whether or not you own traditional Montessori stuff. These principles are useful for practically any preschooler. To me, they fit with natural learning only because they satisfy without needing a special stuff, natural needs are ’sed by youthful children.
FOLLOW THE CHILD. THE. MOST. SIGNIFICANT. PRINCIPLE. FOR ANY AGE.
Individualize learning for your child that is unique ’s interests and needs. In Montessori, monitoring your kid to see what your kid’s needs and interests are and by respecting – honoring – those needs and interests does this.
WHEN YOU OFFER An ACTION, CHECK THAT ONE QUALITY IS ISOLATED (FOR EXAMPLE, IT HELPS IF ONLY THE SHADE – AND NOT THE SHAPE – VARIES IF YOU’RE INTRODUCING YOUR CHILD TO COLORS), AND THERE IS A CONTROL OF ERROR (PROMPT FEEDBACK BUILT INTO THE TASK) WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
Should you follow Montessori principles, you are going to help your child naturally develop characteristics and many favorable skills that provide a solid basis in life – abilities and characteristics such as independence, self-discipline, and love of education.
PRESENT JUST HOW TO DO An ACTION.
Don’t anticipate your son or daughter to automatically understand just how to do something without having it demonstrated first, or to know the conduct that is suitable.
GIVE YOUR SON OR DAUGHTER AS MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR HANDS ON LEARNING AS POSSIBLE.
It’s important your preschooler has tangible, hands-on experiences before learning abstract notions.
ENCOURAGE AND rESPECT YOUR CHILD’S ABSORBENT HEAD AND SENSITIVE PERIODS.
ACCENTUATE PRACTICAL LIFE AND SENSORIAL TASKS IN THE PRESCHOOL YEARS.
Practical life tasks for care of self, care of the environment, control of movement, and grace and courtesy help your child acquire freedom, concentration, coordination, and order. Actions to refine the perceptions give indirect preparation for later academic learning.
LET YOUR CHILD THE FREEDOM TO EXPLORE INDOORS AND OUTDOORS – AS LONG AS YOUR KID IS SAFE AND UTILIZING THE INDEPENDENCE IN A POSITIVE MANNER.
Liberty and self directed learning are significant notions/goals of Montessori education.
