MONTESSORI APPARATUS

The Montessori classroom offers 500 unique educational didactic (self-teaching) materials which are used by the children in the classroom. They accommodate many levels of ability. They are not "teaching aids" in the traditional sense, because their goal is not the external one of teaching children skills or imparting knowledge through "correct usage". Rather the goal is an internal one of aiding the child's mental development and self-construction. They aid this growth by providing stimuli that captures the child's attention and initiates a process of concentration. The child, then, uses the apparatus to develp his coordination, attention to details and good work habits. When the child's environment offers materials that polarize his attention. . the teacher is then able to give him the freedom he needs for healthy development.
