Abstract/Notes: This quasi-experimental research study examined the performance of two groups of five year old children on the Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning-Revised (DIAL-R) (1990) in relationship to their method of schooling. The purpose of the study was to compare mean scores received by the Montessori group (N=10) and the Traditional group (N=10) on Motor Area skills, Concept Area skills, and Language Area skills of the DIAL-R (1990) using t tests for independent samples. Scores received on each test item were also analyzed statistically to determine the specific strengths and weaknesses of each subject group. The findings show that there was no significant difference between the two subject groups in the Motor Area skills as assessed by the DIAL-R (1990). There was a significant difference between the two subject groups in the Concept Area skills which favored the Montessori subjects. The Montessori group performed better than did the Traditional group in the Language Area skills of the DIAL-R (1990), but the difference was not statistically significant. Implications of these findings for Early Childhood educators are discussed, in view of the fact that this sample was quite small. The findings provide support for both the Montessori and Traditional programs for young children found within the Dallas Public Schools in student performance on the DIAL-R (1990). Recommendations for further studies are also given.

Abstract/Notes: The results of the research of etalon images formation in pre-school children with developmental delay are analyzed. The authors focus on sensory models development in children with mental development delay (MDD), also define the main directions of sensory models development in senior pre-school age children with MDD by means of Montessori materials. Classes are conducted in specially prepared environment. As Montessori approach requires the division of the activity room into several zones, standard ones are considered to be: natural zone, practical life zone, sensory zone, language zone, and mathematical zone. The task of a teacher is to adjust to the kid’s interests. It is important to create the environment for realization of his or her ideas and actions.
