Abstract

The Montessori approach encourages self-discipline, self-knowledge, independence academic skills, problem solving ability and an enthusiasm for learning. Montessori designed the materials and activities for sensory education to develop the children's ability to perceive distinction in color and in sound and the curriculum included the skills needed to manipulate various kinds of objects. " the Montessori education gave me a lot of confidence at a young age" (Stephen curry 2013). The sensory exercises were designed to cultivate three kinds of skills: discernment of color, sensitivity to smell and sound, and making compassions and contrast. "Student a who experience a Montessori classroom tend to be more able to manage themselves and think independently" (Stephen, 2017). Montessori believed that her ultimate win would be accomplished by allowing the children to manipulate their environment. Not only was it important to Montessori to teach children the practical life skills necessary to live in society, but also to integrate the family into the learning process. The Montessori method is based on the idea that children learn best when environment supports their natural desire to acquire skills and knowledge (2015). There is a great sense of community within the Montessori classroom, where children of differing ages work together in an atmosphere of co- operation rather than competitiveness. There is respect for the environment and for the individuals within it, which comes through experience of freedom within the community. "Dr Maria Montessori associated in Elizabeth Hainstock, (1986).
