Abstract/Notes: Purpose was to determine the degree of similarity among various selected Montessori preschools in the areas of educational materials and equipment, scheduling objectives of instruction, teacher's educational background, and the socio-economic levels of the children enrolled. The investigation was limited to institutionally related schools or those functioning under the auspices of a licensing agency. Additional criteria stipulated that teachers in schools investigated must be Montessori trained, and that school groups include only normal children. One hundred and thrity-six schools responded to an invitation to participate by completing a questionnaire. Tabulation of responses included 53.1 per cent of identifiable Montessori schools. The findings indicated that variations exist among Montessori schools in the emphasis given to various aspects of the curriculum, methods of instruction, objectives, the contribution and character of group work, and the estimate of what the school environment should accomplish. Although areas of philo: sophical agreement do exist, at the preschool level wide variations in the interpretation of Montessori principles seem to exist. No actual observation of schools was undertaken. The possibility of sampling error must also be considered.
