Montessori Education and Playful Learning



I found this wonderful article about Montessori Education and Playful Learning and I wanted to shared it with you. It was written by Angeline Lillard and published by the American Journal of Play. Here is the summary:

"Although Montessori education is often considered a form of playful learning, Maria Montessori herself spoke negatively about a major component of playful learning—pretend play, or fantasy—for young children. In this essay, the author discusses this apparent contradiction: how and why Montessori education includes elements of playful learning while simultaneously eschewing fantasy. She concludes with a discussion of research on the outcomes of Montessori education and on pretend-play research, clarifying how Montessori education relates to playful learning."


It's interesting, right? Montessori shares many elements of playful learning. Want to read more about it? Absolutely worth to reading it. To access the article, please click here.
