Prerequisite: Admission to M.Ed. Program.
Students learn how essential movement is to the physical, emotional and cognitive development of children. They also learn to present children with motives of activity in which action and interest combine to provide irresistible activities which children love to repeat spontaneously. Students discover that work with the Montessori Practical Life materials provides children with many opportunities to develop independence and to achieve concentration, which is the essential prerequisite in the process of normalization. Finally, students learn to implement teaching strategies which enhance the child’s physical, cognitive, emotional and social development.
