From: https://aldenmontessori.hubbli.com/montessori-method/a. "A Montessori teacher or guide observes each child like a scientist, providing every child with an individual program for learning. Phoebe Child (Head of the Montessori Trust in London) said 'we must be prepared to wait patiently like a servant, to watch carefully like a scientist, and to understand through love and wonder like a saint.' ”b. "The Montessori Method of education developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, is a child-centered educational approach based on scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood. It is a philosophy that recognizes the uniqueness of each child, and respects their interests and natural growth. Dr. Montessori believed in the worthiness, value, and importance of children. Her method does not compare a child to norms or standards as in a traditional educational system, but rather understands that each child must develop at his or her own pace. Children are unique individuals who are not likely to master the exact same concepts or have the same interests at the same time"15. iNaturalist: https://www.inaturalist.org/a. iPhone app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/inaturalist/id421397028?mt=8b.
