THIS BOOK IS THE BEST!

"Montessori Read and Write" is written by the director of the oldest and many people think the most thorough Montessori teacher training center in the world, MMI (The Maria Montessori Institute) in London, England. It is extremely valuable to Montessori teachers, other teachers, and parents. And now it is available NEW in this country from the Michael Olaf Montessori Company in Arcata, California.

What is my kid doing in a Montessori Class?

This book really helped me to support my kids and their teachers as they moved through their primary years at Fayette Montessori. Although I did not have to work with them at home, understanding the methods they used in the class made me a hugh Montessori advocate.

Great Ideas, and Lots of Them

Montessori Read and Write is a terrific book and is stuffed with many, many great ideas and suggestions for teaching your young child to read and instilling a love of reading. The content of this book can actually be a bit overwhelming. I suggest a very slow reading of this book, interspersed with trying the ideas slowly with your children. As with all children, some of these ideas will work better individually than others, but I think most children will benefit very much from this book. Happy reading to you and your children.

An Excellent Start-up Book for the Montessori Method

My oldest son attended a Montessori school for the first 5 years of his formal schooling and I believe it gave him a firm foundation for his future schooling. Now I have two small children and I also want them to be exposed to the Montessori method, however, I want to homeschool them as well. This seemed a formidable task until I found Lynne Lawrence's book, as well as "Teaching Montessori In the Home by Elizabeth G. Hainstock", which gives me the guidelines and instruction I need to successfully utilize the Montessori method in my own home. I highly recommend this book to all parents, whether homeschooling or not.

Just what I was looking for !

As the mother of a four year old attending Montessori school, I was devastated that we would have to move before the school year was over-and just when my son was learning the basics of reading! At our new home, there was no Montessori school with a mid-year opening, so rather than wait to continue his education, I decided to home school in the Montessori method. Not being formally educated in Montessori, or even early childhood education, I was overjoyed to find this book. It is a clearly written instruction on teaching young children to read and write using many senses. My son, having familiarity with some of the tools already, actually instructed me a few times, but it is wonderful to watch him so confident and enjoying learning. For anyone homeschooling or looking to supplement their young childs education, this book is a valuable tool.
