Bringing More Than a Century of Practice to Writing Pedagogy in the Early Years [Chapter 4]

Abstract/Notes: In Montessori classrooms writing is taught using a pedagogy that lays claim to more than a century of practice. In the early 20th century Maria Montessori analysed the process of learning to write for the benefit of street children too young to be at school but who showed interest in writing. Montessori designed a repertoire of lessons and activities that offered the children two separate but parallel developmental pathways, one mechanical and one intellectual. The mechanical pathway had two elements: learning how to hold and control a pencil, and (for alphabetic writing) learning to distinguish individual sounds in the stream of spoken language and to match the sounds with graphic signs. The intellectual pathway also had two elements: learning to use graphic signs to (re)compose the sounds of the language into words, and learning to organise words into written discourse. When the children engaged with Montessori’s lessons and activities, they appeared to be teaching themselves to write. Because this same pedagogy is still in use today, it provides a rare opportunity to investigate an enduring educational practice through which children for more than a hundred years and in more than a hundred countries have become writers.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter explores various calls for alternative visions for education, especially those calling more specifically for equivalents of education of the heart. While education of the heart has been one of the primary goals within various educational systems, especially within the global south, there have been several synergetic concepts like Learning To Live Together, Social Emotional Learning, Global Citizenship Education, Emotional Intelligence, and peace education that have emerged across the world. Drawing on practitioners’ vision, the chapter emphasises the role of education for harmony (within oneself and in the wider world) for building a commitment to the wellbeing of oneself, others, and the world at large, with the hope that this will inevitably shape an intrinsically and naturally just, peaceful, and harmonious society.
