[quote=Anonymous]I would like to chime in and say that anyone who is looking into Montessori or is on the fence about it, should really read the book, "Montessori: The Science Behind the Genius" by Angeline Stoll Lillard. It is a technical read at times, but it really gives a good understanding of why the Montessori method does things the way it does and why it works. In this thread, I have seen a lot of common misinformation about Montessori and this book helps clear those things up. The book will also give you a new perspective of what is wrong with the current education system overall. I also would like to point out that a "center that has a Montessori approach" is not a true Monterssori school. When people say they dislike Montessori based off of an experience or observation of a Montessori "approach" preschool or daycare, it makes me think of a person declaring that they don't like Italian food because they don't like the chicken parmesean sandwich at Burger King.[/quote]
