As educators, we shifted away from incorporating hands-on resources in the classroom during the onset of COVID-19. Utilizing hands-on materials provides students with a tactile and experiential approach, offering a tangible way for learners to connect with abstract concepts and enhance understanding. Through hands-on engagement, such as manipulating objects or participating in interactive activities, students can more readily comprehend intricate ideas and improve information retention. It's now opportune to revisit and rediscover the hands-on resources available for classroom use or those that may have been overlooked.

The Montessori method is not just an educational system but a way of fostering a child’s natural curiosity and drive to learn. Founded by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 20th century, this approach is built on the belief that children are inherently motivated to explore and learn from their environment. Montessori education places the child at the center of their learning process, with the teacher acting as a guide rather than a traditional instructor.

A Montessori teacher is more of an observer and guide than a conventional teacher. Rather than imparting knowledge through lectures, the teacher prepares the environment, provides the materials, and steps back to allow the child to explore.

In this eBook, we will explore the key components of the Montessori curriculum, with a focus on the practical application for novice teachers. We will delve into each subject area, discussing the key materials, lessons, and developmental stages, as well as offer practical examples of activities and lessons for you to implement in your classroom.
