Abstract/Notes: En el año del 150 aniversario del nacimiento de Maria Montessori ponemos su figura enfrente de su contemporánea Caroline Pratt, menos conocida en los ambientes pedagógicos europeos, pero igualmente imbuida de la pasión por una educación al servicio de una infancia activa, competente y autónoma. Después de repasar sucintamente las biografías paralelas de ambas, se señalan las diferencias entre las pedagogías de cada una de ellas especialmente en lo relativo a los materiales y al juego de construcción. Se constata, al mismo tiempo, la amplia coincidencia en los ideales por los que ambas trabajan toda su vida y se termina formulando una propuesta de complementariedad entre ambas, sugiriendo la conveniencia de enriquecer la pedagogía montessoriana con la incorporación de los bloques de madera maciza diseñados por Caroline Pratt y del juego de construcción como un recurso ordinario más.

Abstract/Notes: There are schools where educating the whole child was never a mere slogan and consequently has never gone out of fashion. Begun early in this century, these schools still thrive, providing evidence of the variety of ways in which holistic education takes form. This article takes a brief look at three such schools stemming from the thinking of, respectively, Maria Montessori, John Dewey, and Rudolf Steiner. I write from the vantage point of a teacher of young children for many years, and now a teacher of their teachers. My intention is to sketch out the connections as much as the contrasts among these three approaches and to trace their common heritage. When education has become as fragmented and meaningless for many children as life is for their families, a strong alliance is called for among holistic educators. We need to remind ourselves of the closeness of our basic beliefs even as we continue to enact them in varied and differing ways. The interconnections among these three approaches to education can themselves be traced to Johann H. Pestalozzi and Friedrich Froebel, and I will try to identify the roots these two pioneers shared...
