Abstract/Notes: In this study, we asked whether Montessori schools, which tend to have high student engagement, are associated with lower average rates of chronic absenteeism and/or smaller racial disparities therein relative to non-Montessori schools. We use multilevel modeling to answer this question, following an approach proposed in Author et al., (in press) for analyzing racial disparities in count outcomes. We identified a sample of Title 1 Montessori and non-Montessori schools using propensity score matching and data from the Civil Rights Data Collection. We did not observe significant differences in average overall rates of chronic absenteeism across school types, nor in average racial disparities in the rates of chronic absenteeism between Black and White or Hispanic and White students, though Montessori schools had slightly lower average rates for White students. We discuss shortcomings in the way chronic absenteeism data is collected, and how these shortcomings do not allow researchers to answer questions about why students are chronically absent, thereby limiting intervention work.

Abstract/Notes: This study examined the nature of circle time within early childhood Montessori classrooms in the United States of America. We explored literature pertaining to the history and development of circle time as well as circle time research in preschool and kindergarten settings. Unable to find writings or research specific to Montessori circle time practices, we crafted a 30-question survey for early childhood Montessori teachers to determine basic information about their circle time approaches. The survey asked participants about demographic information, circle time logistics, circle time activities, reactions to circle time, planning and preparation, and the morning work cycle. Using social media and direct emails, we gathered over 300 responses from 50 states and the District of Columbia; a total of 276 participants completed the full survey. Results focused on five different areas: time - the frequency, duration, and scheduling of circle time; attendance - who joined circle time and for how long; teacher preparation - participants’ training and planning approaches; circle time programming - the most common and popular activities; the morning work cycle – its relation to circle time. Results revealed that 92% of survey participants have circle time every day or most days; most participants hold circle time as the last event of the morning for generally 20 minutes or less; the most common circle time events were show and tell, calendar work, vocabulary lessons, Grace and Courtesy lessons, read aloud discussions, dancing and movement, snack time, general conversation, read aloud (stories), and birthday celebrations. Most participants had a work cycle that lasts less than three hours. This study promotes reflection on the importance and meaning of circle time in Montessori classrooms in relation to its apparent absence in Dr. Montessori’s writings.

Abstract/Notes: Die Montessori-Pädagogik ist ein Klassiker der Reformpädagogik – und heute aktueller denn je. Denn im Mittelpunkt stehen Individualisierung, Freiarbeit und selbstbestimmtes Lernen. Eva Schumacher präsentiert in dieser Einführung anschaulich das Erziehungskonzept Maria Montessoris mit besonderem Fokus auf die pädagogische Praxis und die dafür erforderlichen Materialien. So werden neben den theoretischen Grundlagen alle Materialbereiche vorgestellt – von den Sinnes- und Dimensionsmaterialien über die Mathematikmaterialien bis hin zur Kosmischen Erziehung (Kosmisches Material) – und ihre Anwendung wird anhand ausgewählter Beispiele und Farbfotos erläutert. Die Verankerung der Montessori-Didaktik in der aktuellen Entwicklungs- und Lernpsychologie sowie in der empirischen Schulforschung und Schulreform zeigen zudem die Aktualität der Montessori-Pädagogik auf. Literaturempfehlungen, nützliche Adressen und Überblickstabellen vervollständigen das Buch. [Montessori education is a classic of reform education - and today more relevant than ever. The focus is on individualization, free work and self-determined learning. In this introduction, Eva Schumacher clearly presents Maria Montessori's educational concept with a particular focus on pedagogical practice and the materials required for it. In addition to the theoretical basics, all material areas are presented - from sensory and dimensional materials to mathematics materials to cosmic education (cosmic material) - and their application is explained using selected examples and color photos. The anchoring of Montessori didactics in current development and learning psychology as well as in empirical school research and school reform also show the topicality of Montessori pedagogy. Literature recommendations, useful addresses and overview tables complete the book.]
