Abstract/Notes: Developmental observations in ten young children with Williams syndrome (1-6 years old) are presented from developmental tests, symbolic play sessions and play sessions with a special educator following the non-directive Montessori approach. There is a considerable individual variability in performance. Overall, the children are engaged in goal-directed activities for more than 35% of the time during play sessions. Overactivity and distractability seem to be more age-dependent and situation-specific than thought before. Developmental interventions may include play sessions following the Montessori approach.

Abstract/Notes: After the Brown v. Board of Education case, of 1954 (in which racial segregation in public schools was deemed unconstitutional), federal laws changed. Many private schools followed the public schools' lead in terms of integration, and this led many Montessori schools to announce a commitment to racial and ethnic diversity and social justice. ROSLYN DAViS WiLLiAMS' EARLY YEARS Roslyn Davis was born in 1921 and grew up in Harlem, the nexus of Black life in New York City. [...]the 1960s, many of New York City's residential communities remained closed to people of color. In 1962, the child psychologist Martin Deutsch, who was affiliated with the New York University Institute for Developmental Studies, started a small program in Harlem to train public school teachers to belie the then mainstream belief that poverty was a deterrent to learning.
