This edition looks at the skills our teachers and children need to acquire to succeed in the 21st century. A benefit of the Montessori curriculum has always been the holistic approach to education, something modern practitioners are only just coming to realise. A foundation based on respect for oneself, respect for others, and respect for the environment gives our children a broader experience. A Montessori classroom is inherently built to provide children with ways of thinking, ways of working, tools for working and skills for living in the world.
