The series "Montessori, a world of achievements" is a collection of
texts for children that contain playing activities aimed at
encouraging the development of the main cognitive skills, such as
the recognition of numbers, shapes and colours. They are designed
and built according to the specific educational and pedagogical
approach of the Montessori Method. Various species of animal live
in Dirondello wood: little children of 3 to 4 years can get to know
them by involvement in enjoyable activities, developed in the
Montessori style. By means of lines to trace, shapes to recognize
and color, drawings to cut out, and many brightly colored stickers
to place, children gradually learn new information on the features
of woodland animals, at the same time developing their cognitive
potential. The structure of the activities develops around some
fundamental Montessori principles: - the content of the games
follows a progressive complexity, to allow the child to become
gradually familiar with it; - each activity has 3 progressive
stages of learning: 1. presentation of the material through senses,
2. Recognition of the learning object material, 3. re-enactment of
the material; - the adult has a role of assistance and introduction
to the various activities but the child can play independently the
games; - handling and practical experience have a central role:
often is required you to glue stickers, cut, draw and finger paint.
