Abstract/Notes: While many BIPOC Montessori educators engage in anti-racist and culturally responsive teaching, Montessori education remains predominantly race-evasive. As a philosophy, it is rooted in colorblind perspectives in its focus on "all children" and lack of explicit centering of BIPOC students’ experiences. Teaching must account for race and racial lived realities in order to better support BIPOC students’ ways of knowing in culturally relevant and sustaining ways. This study seeks to center the voices of BIPOC Montessori educators and disrupt the pattern of Montessori research conducted without a critical racial lens. Framed by Critical Race Theory, this study focuses on the strengths, assets, and anti-racist teaching practices that one BIPOC educator brings to her classroom. I use critical ethnographic methods to better understand how a BIPOC Montessori teacher at a public charter Montessori school interprets and enacts the Montessori method to support BIPOC students. I consider how her racial identity informs her practices, and the structural barriers she faces at her school when enacting anti-racist and strength-based approaches. The guiding research questions of this study are: How does a Black Montessori teacher interpret the Montessori philosophy to more relevantly support her BIPOC students? How does she practice the Montessori method through culturally relevant and sustaining practices? What are the structural barriers that continue to challenge her as a Black educator doing her work? My analysis suggests that the teacher maintains her classroom space as a tangible and intangible cultural space that reflects and maintains her students' identities; that her own identity as a Black woman deeply contribute to the school's work around anti-racism and culturally responsive pedagogy; and that there are external barriers that both the teacher and the school face, that prevent them both from fully achieving culturally responsive teaching practices. At the core of the study, I seek to understand the possibilities and challenges of Montessori education from the perspective of BIPOC Montessori educators, and how we could learn from them to better support BIPOC students. I hope to begin a path toward more counter-stories in the Montessori community to specifically support BIPOC Montessori educators and understand the structural barriers they face to anti-racist teaching in Montessori programs in the United States.

Abstract/Notes: The present study is conducted to examine the effect of the Montessori method on kindergarten children's large muscle skills. The study group formed with 40 children who were between 36 and 60 months and going to Ihsan Dogramacı Implementation Kindergarten of Selcuk University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Konya during the 2014-2015 academic year. As data collection tool, the Large Muscle Skills Assessment Test (LMSAT) is used. The tests are applied to students before and after the experiment; they are applied again to experimental group ten weeks after the application of the program ended. Mann-Whitney- U Test and Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test were used in the analysis of the data obtained from the study. When the findings of the present study are examined and the pre-test and post-test score average of both experimental and control group children's gathered via Large Muscle Skills Assessment Test (LMSAT) is compared, a significant difference was found in favor of the experimental group. When experimental group children's Large Muscle Skills Assessment Test (LMSAT) post-test and test-retest score average results are compared there was no statistically meaningful difference. Depending on the findings it can be said that Montessori method affects kindergarten children's large muscle skills positively and is also more effective in terms of large muscle skills compared to the pre-School education program of the Ministry of Education. / Bu araştırma, Montessori yönteminin anaokulu çocuklarının büyük kas becerilerini etkisini incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma grubunda, 2014-2015 öğretim yılında Konya ilinde bulunan Selçuk Üniversitesi, Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi, İhsan Doğramacı Uygulama Anaokulu'nda okul öncesi eğitime devam eden (36- 60 ay arası) 40 çocuk yer almıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Büyük Kas Becerilerini Ölçme Testi (BÜKBÖT) kullanılmıştır. Testler çocuklara deneme öncesi ve sonrasında uygulanmış; ayrıca deneme grubuna eğitim programı bitiminden on hafta sonra tekrar uygulanmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen verilerin analizinde Mann Whitney – U Testi ve Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralar Testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular incelendiğinde, deneme ve kontrol grubu çocuklarının Büyük Kas Becerilerini Ölçme Testi (BÜKBÖT) sontest puan ortalamaları karşılaştırıldığında, deneme grubu lehine anlamlı bir farklılaşma bulunmuştur. Deneme grubu çocuklarının Büyük Kas Becerilerini Ölçme (BÜKBOT) Testi sontest ve izleme testi puan ortalamaları karşılaştırıldığında ise anlamlı bir farklılaşmanın bulunmadığı ortaya konulmuştur. Elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda ulaşılan genel sonuç; Montessori yönteminin anaokulu çocuklarının büyük kas becerilerini olumlu yönde etkilediği ve MEB Okul Öncesi Eğitim Programı'na göre büyük kas becerileri acısından daha etkili olduğudur.

Abstract/Notes: Il volume raccoglie una parte delle tante voci italiane, iberiche e sudamericane che hanno inondato le giornate del Convegno su "Maria Montessori e la scuola d'infanzia a nuovo indirizzo", promosso dalla Fondazione Montessori Italia e svoltosi a Roma nel febbraio del 2015. Il libro si propone di ripercorrere alcuni elementi significativi della lezione di Maria Montessori, ricostruendone gli sviluppi in relazione al nuovo indirizzo dell'educazione infantile promosso da Bruno Ciari e Loris Malaguzzi, in vista delle sfide pedagogiche che si prospettano alla scuola d'infanzia nel nuovo secolo. Il volume è diviso in tre parti. La prima parte, intitolata ai fondamenti del pensiero montessoriano e ai suoi rapporti col modello a nuovo indirizzo, riporta le relazioni di base del Convegno. La seconda parte è costituita da interventi relativi agli aspetti storici e culturali del pensiero montessoriano. La terza parte, infine, è dedicata a interventi inerenti ad alcuni momenti della pedagogia montessoriana.

The Effects of Implementing Montessori at Home on Children's Independence and Self-Regulation in a Montessori Classroom
Available from: St. Catherine University

Abstract/Notes: The ultimate goal of Montessori educators is to prepare the child, the whole child. One who is not only excelling academically, but also is independent, a critical thinker, and can collaborate with people from all different walks of life. The role of the Montessori educators is to prepare and guide children to independence, this is an increasingly difficult goal to achieve independence and self-regulation especially in the three to six, and six to nine age group. The Montessori guides have grappled with the disconnect between the home environment and school environment, citing it as the major obstacle to children’s independence. In this paper, the literature about parent involvement and its impact on children independence and self-regulation in a Montessori classroom are reviewed. This paper explains the research tools that were employed throughout the research period as well as the methodology, and findings and conclusions.
