DESCRIPTION
If you are a parent of a young child, this book is a must-read!
We know we need to improve our traditional school system, both public and private. But how? More homework? Better qualified teachers? Longer school days or school years? More funding? No, no, no, and no.
Montessori Madness! explains why the incremental steps politicians and administrators continue to propose are incremental steps in the wrong direction. It's the entire system that must be turned on its head. This book asks parents to take a look one thirty-minute observation at a Montessori school. Your picture of what education should look like will never be the same.
Montessori Madness! follows one family with young children on their journey of determination, discovery, and delight. Learn the who, what, when, where, why, and how of Montessori education.
Reviews:
Just what the wider educational community needsâa book written with passion and understanding by a Montessori parent to other parents. Trevor Eissler is a rare parent who can put into writing his enthusiasm and first-hand experience as a Montessori advocate to other parents. -Barbara Gordon, President, Montessori Institute of Texas"
...after five pages I was hooked and read the 230 pages on my computer screen in one sitting...Buy a copy of Montessori Madness and after youâve read it give it to your sister, your brother, your neighbor, or your local library. âLeaveâ it at your YMCA, pediatricianâs office, grocery store or wherever, and create a viral marketing tool for Montessori education. Deliver a copy to your local public school superintendent, your mayor, and your state legislator. -Maren Schmidt, author of Understanding Montessori and Kids Talk
This is by far the most passionate, interesting (and even humorous at times) Montessori book we have read in a long time. It is written by a father, a pilot, who compares the Montessori education his children are receiving with his own education. His insight makes this revolutionary educational method understood better even by those teachers and teacher trainers who know it well...it is the most valuable parent book available today. -Susan Stephenson, Michael Olaf Montessori Company
