Não preciso de ajuda, eu consigo fazer sozinho: a autonomia das crianças, educação infantil e método montessori

Abstract

This is a Final paper on the method of Maria Montessori, an Italian educator who had her own process to teach children in a playful way to develop. Montessori worked a lot with children's autonomy, working with concrete materials that stimulate concentration, imagination, creativity, gross and fine motor coordination, balance, among many other things. For this, Montessori created Casa dei Bambini and began to teach children who had difficulties to develop. His work did well and became a huge success. Nowadays there are several schools that followed his method, people who adapted things at home and his method became a reference in the field of education. This work was focused on the Early Education stage, where in addition to bibliographical research, observations were also made in children, interviews and records in a private Montessorian school located in Juiz de Fora, MG. The Montessori classroom is divided into five areas, namely Mathematics, Language, Sensory, Cosmic Education and Practical Life. We will know more about each area and about the Montessori method in this work.
