Who said tell me and ill forget

We show children how and then give them the freedom to practice as many times as they need. They are often so pleased with themselves when they have achieved it all by themselves and show a real sense of pride.

The adult in the Montessori environment plays a vital role as the link between the child and the activities. They may demonstrate, share ideas, provide vocabulary and importantly know when to take a step back. If all our children were given the time and space to explore and investigate ideas, concepts and materials, rather than being told to memorise facts, I am sure our children would understand so much more about the environment they live in.
