Abstract/Notes: This paper is based on a talk given at the NAMTA conference in October, 2019. Two months later, the Montessori community lost Jackie Cossentino. As an ethnographer, Jackie championed the vital role of science in Montessori pedagogy and had a significant impact on Montessori in the public sector. We continue to be inspired and guided by her work, and we dedicate this paper to her memory.

Abstract/Notes: David Orr's classic article links education to living in the outdoors and studying all disciplines through the unifying lens of place. Pedagogy of place counters abstraction, it is the natural world embodying principles of learning that involve direct observation, investigation, experimentation, and manual skills. Place is the laboratory providing the hands-on materials through the diversity of the habitat and its messages through a community experience. Emphasis is placed on human history, social science, political science, geology, biology, etc. as creating a "complex mosaic" that widens perceptions about applications of the disciplines and deepens the perception of time. Mr.Orr's article ties into Montessori education and the role of nature in the development of the older elementary child and adolescent.
