Montessori method

The Montessori method is a way of teaching and helping children learn that was started by Dr. Maria Montessori. It focuses on the individual needs of the child and helps them develop their own interests and skills at their own pace. It also emphasizes learning through hands-on experiences, allowing the child to explore, experiment and discover things on their own. In a Montessori classroom, there are many educational materials, such as puzzles and building blocks, that the children can use to learn and practice different concepts. Montessori education also encourages cooperation and collaboration between the children.
