[quote=Anonymous]Well, to start, "Montessori" is not trademarked philosophy. Any school can call themselves Montessori, so everything you observe is pretty anecdotal. Not to make a No True Scotsman arguments, but what you may have observed may not be in line with Maria Montessori's teaching. There's no standardization. Separately, I don't see the point in starting my very young child in a subpar mold (behaviorally speaking) just because they're going to have to deal with subpar institutions in the future. Signed, A person who went to Montessori school as a preschooler, sent her kid to a very play-based, radical, but non-Montessori preschool and still sent her kid to "subpar" public school [/quote]
