[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What does the current research say about montessori and early childhood education?[/quote] Montessori has been largely ignored by academic researchers since an earlier study in 1930s which asserts that it is not a good approach to early education. I am a mathematician but I found the Montessori way of teaching math very strange, to say the least. [/quote] Very interesting. Would you care to elaborate?[/quote] For the most up to date research, I would recommend reading "Montessori: The Science Behind the Genius" by Dr. Angeline Lillard published about 2 years ago. It's the first scientifically based study of outcomes of students in Montessori schools. There's also a great little book that's just come out on Montessori math called "Math Works."[/quote]
