Montessori Kindergruppe Märchenmond (AUT-17)
|
Brief description and main aimsWe are a private Montessori Children’s Group with an integrated forest educational theory. In the group we have 14 children, aged between 18 months and 6 years, 2 montessori pedagogues and a dog. Our goal is to raise the children entrusted to us in a family-like, loving atmosphere and to support them. We base our education on the teachings of Maria Montessori. Maria was born in Italy in 1870. She was a great philosopher, scientist, paediatrician and a reforming pedagogue. Maria developed the theory that children have a natural desire to learn. Based on this, she made the principle of her teachings to be “Help me to do it myself”. Many Montessori institutions are internationally lead. We follow the Forest educational theory - we spend one day a week in the forest with the children. There, they get to know the animals, trees and plants. They build structures for the animals and explore nature. |
