Abstract/Notes: The Montessori Method for dementia is a specific approach to dementia care that can be implemented as an alternative to pharmaceutical intervention with its focus on purposeful and meaningful doing. Montessori-based interventions that were found effective in increasing self-feeding for people with dementia included activities requiring hand-eye coordination, scooping, pouring and squeezing. For this project, there were five participants from a residential care facility. This study consisted of doing activities or exercises to simulate eating right before mealtime. This occurred three times per week for eight weeks. The broad long-term purpose of this project was to increase participation in the daily occupation of self-feeding for people with dementia in residential care facilities. Montessori-based occupational therapy interventions could provide caregivers with an evidence-based strategy to deal with eating difficulties of people with dementia.

Abstract/Notes: "Dr. and Mrs. Alexander Graham Bell were hosts at a reception last night at their home in Connecticut avenue in compliment to the members of the Montessori Educational Association. An interesting feature of the evening was the illustration of the method of rhythmic singing and dancing given by the pupils of Mis Alys Bentley, who brought them from New York for that purpose. The reception was one of a series Dr. and Mrs. Bell are giving in compliment to the association. The next will be given on Thursday, April 2, at 9 o'clock, and the last on Monday night, April 13."

Abstract/Notes: Montessori’s philosophy of education has a profound impact on children’s (0-18 years old) education. When he analyzes human’s spiritual embryo, its implication is far beyond the scope of children, which contains thorough understanding and discovery on human from the perspective of biology and psychology: the human embryo is a separate process; human owns physiological function of spirituality when they are born; the spirituality in psychology shows its features in the free choice of the external environment - "sense of order", "sense of dignity" and "sense of satisfaction". These features are not only the key to a child’s development, but also the characteristics of innovative talent. Spirituality brings innovation when innovation brings future of the nation.
