Abstract/Notes: [...]she looks at our picture of Maria Montessori (whom we had discussed earlier that morning) hanging on the wall and observes, "So Maria Montessori is just a skeleton right now?" I say that that is probably correct. In the first hours of my teacher education, I jotted down this quote: "Cosmic education is the total interrelated functioning of the whole universe, which allows elementary children to store and organize a great amount of knowledge from among a wide range of different subject matter areas and disciplines" (Montessori, 1948, p. 21). Montessori maintained that children learn best in an environment that encourages freedom of movement and discovery, and a space to develop an early understanding about their place as individuals in the universe. In the Children's House, the prepared environment provides an order that allows for educating the whole child in every aspect from the use of materials that lead to natural consequences (for example, if there is a spill, the responsible person cleans it up) to furniture and works specifically designed for small hands.

Abstract/Notes: In this Cosmic Lecture, Montessori talks at length about supra natura, ‘Man's needs become more and more refined as his progress goes on, so that it is inevitable that this environment has been developed. We may call this a supra nature because it is above nature, but it is the nature of man.’

Abstract/Notes: The author argues convincingly that to help comprehend our world, our minds benefit also from a visual, perceptual language, such as the pictorial arts. The verbal and the visual, working together, can enhance the way we interpret and appreciate our world. Therefore, both are deserving of our keen attention; if not, we allow a deficit or an imbalance between the two realms. And whether a Pablo Picasso in the making, or not at all, we all benefit from sharpening our observation skills, so necessary in practising and appreciating art, and our knowledge of the world.
