Abstract/Notes: An authentic Montessori school will implement a philosophical approach that is consistent with the educational methods and areas of instruction as defined by the observations, research, writings and instruction of Dr. Maria Montessori. A Montessori school must allow the child to develop naturally—children are able to learn at their own pace and follow their own individual interests, learning primarily through the hands-on use of scientifically prepared auto-didactic materials, and interacting with the environment under the guidance of a specially trained adult. A Montessori environment promotes the child’s ability to find things out independently, enabling motivation and knowledge-building through internal development rather than external teaching or rewards.

Abstract/Notes: This study offers a contextualized understanding of the distance-learning experiences of Montessori educators and students in the spring of 2020 in the wake of the COVID-19 global pandemic. In this article, we build on results reported in a separate article published in this issue of the Journal of Montessori Research. First, we analyzed qualitative data from social media and national virtual gatherings designed to support teachers as they faced the challenges created by the abrupt shift to distance learning. Second, we employed a convergent mixed-methods design to integrate these qualitative findings with the survey results reported in the previous article to provide a richer and more complete perspective on the situation. In our results, we found substantial evidence to support the resilience and durability of the Montessori Method, even in the face of adverse conditions created by a global pandemic. Despite the challenges of adaptation, Montessori educators demonstrated a commitment to the key tenets of Montessori philosophy, such as following the child and employing a holistic perspective on learning and development. While serving the whole child’s growth and development remained front and center, Montessori teachers’ approach to academics looked very different under distance learning. Still, the ongoing attention to children’s social-emotional needs will benefit both teachers and children when they return to the classroom, undoubtedly with lasting effects from pandemic-related isolation and hardship.

Abstract/Notes: Este trabalho tem como objetivo compreender como ocorreu a transferência, para o Brasil, das propostas pedagógicas de Maria Montessori e quais foram, dentre essas propostas, as que foram incorporadas ao ensino elementar da Matemática no período de 1911 a 1952. Esta é uma pesquisa qualitativa de abordagem documental, apoiada no referencial das transferências culturais. Nossas fontes se encontram nos arquivos da hemeroteca digital da Biblioteca Nacional do Rio de Janeiro; no repositório da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina; em livros didáticos, artigos e teses sobre a autora. Concluímos que as transferências das propostas pedagógicas de Montessori, no Brasil, ocorreram principalmente por meio de livros, artigos, periódicos, cursos oferecidos aos professores, exposições pedagógicas e pelas escolas montessorianas que surgiram na década de 1920. A apropriação de suas ideias no ensino da matemática no país deu-se com ênfase no ensino de iniciação aritmética e de conceitos elementares de geometria, com forte utilização dos materiais didáticos propostos por Montessori.
