Master's Thesis (Action Research Report)
The Effects of Work Plans on Independence in a Primary Montessori Classroom
Available from: St. Catherine University
See More
Abstract/Notes: This action research project aimed to examine the effects introducing picture-based work plans would have on independence in a Primary Montessori classroom. The intervention took place over seven weeks and involved a middle-class suburban classroom with 25 children ages three to six-years old. Data was collected through the use of tally sheets which recorded the number of times children asked for suggestions; tables which recorded the number of children engaged in meaningful work; an observation log for observations taken globally; and a field journal which recorded the researcher’s thoughts, questions, and other observations at the time. The data showed a decrease in overall productivity in the classroom, with less children engaging in meaningful work overall. There was also a decrease in children asking for suggestions. Research should continue to examine if using work plans with older children would be beneficial.

Abstract/Notes: Dr. Maria Montessori, the Italian educator, arrived in Los Angeles today to open an educational course under the joint auspices of the Montessori Alumnae and the Los Angeles Chautauqua association. The course will be opened this evening at a reception to be tendered Madame Montessori this evening at the Clark hotel where she is staying during her visit in this city. It is a lecture course and will be of about six weeks' duration. It is probable that because her classes are filled in this course she will open another course under the Chautauqua auspices and that the lectures under the new course will be given during May, June, and July.
