Abstract/Notes: "Before 400 students, teachers and members of the women's board of the Exposition, Madame Maria Montessori, the noted educator of Rome, spoke last night in the auditorium of the Normal school on 'The Development of the Individual Through Work.' Madame Montessori said in part that the teacher should not make a practice of imposing tasks upon a child, but give it an opportunity to work out problems for itself. This method, she explained, allows the child to work out easy problems that appeal to it, after which it moves naturally to more difficult problems. The speaker was introduced by Ernest White, a member of the Normal school board of trustees."

Abstract/Notes: Our research introduced the use of ASL signs with hearing elementary children and examined if this intervention affected the noise level produced in the classroom. The project was performed in two Montessori lower elementary classrooms (1st-3rd grade); one at a Maine private Montessori school, with 28 hearing children, and one at a Wisconsin public Montessori school, with 34 hearing children. In Wisconsin the researcher was a teacher in the classroom, in Maine the researcher was not. Data was measured using four tools: a decibel measuring app, observation form, tally sheet, and a structured discussion. In both classrooms, the change in noise level was minimal, decreasing by 2% overall. Qualitative results, however, indicate the project was worthwhile. The children responded positively to instructions given using ASL and their enthusiasm of learning signs justified the intervention. The intervention granted the children opportunities to discuss exceptionalities. We recognized the importance in such conversations and encouraged this dialogue.
