Maria Montessori: Method and Practice
The second Montessori chapter works through the practical and theoretical pieces of the method beyond the foundations: mathematics teaching with its concrete materials, the four planes of development that structure her account of growth, the developmental curriculum that follows from the planes, the prepared environment and the role of the directress, the involvement of parents, and the standard criticisms her method has faced.
