Abstract/Notes: Joachim Dattke describes a holistic approach to supporting the needs of the family when a child has a disability. The parent and child benefit from a two-pronged approach: working with doctors, psychologists, and therapists in clinic-based settings, and working with educators in schools and parent-child groups. He defines the importance of developing a personalized learning environment that implements specific aids and attainable objectives for each child. Approaching parents with empathy elicits the change of perspective that is needed for the family to understand how the child sees the world. Professor Dattke gives special appreciation to the Montessori educator who can "identify critical development periods in the child and look for objects and action sequences that the child may be interested in" and who prevent social exclusion by actively involving children in their social environment. [This talk was presented at the NAMTA conference titled "Building the Inclusive Montessori Community," Phoenix, AZ, January 16-19, 2014.

Abstract/Notes: "A Mi-Carême ball will be given at the Plaza on March 11 for the benefit of the free Montessori Tenement Schools of New York. Mrs. E. Thompson Seton, of 512 Fifth av., is chairman of the finance committee of the New York Chapter of the Montessori Educational Association that is maintaining these institutions. One of the most interesting of these schools is situated in what was meant to be three tenements, south of the John Jay dwellings, at 77th st., near the East River. It consists of an office, a schoolroom, a playroom and kitchen. The schoolroom is equipped with low desks for the small children of the neighborhood and luncheon is served by the scholars themselves at a round table in the playroom. A canary and a frog are kept as pets."
