Five fields of Montessori's early education
First, areas of daily life:

Montessori education attaches great importance to "life is education". Through various exercises in daily life, the practice of life skills, the construction of etiquette habits, and the care and service for people, things and nature around them, children can learn self-management, self-control and self-protection, laying a foundation for the sustainable development of body and mind and learning to survive in the future.

Second, the field of sensory education.

Visual education guides children to distinguish the size, shape and color of objects;

Visual AIDS: dimensions

Pink tower: it can help children know the size.

Brown ladder: help children know the height.

Long stick (red stick): It can help children know the length.

Third, the field of mathematics.

Mathematics is the proudest part of Montessori education system and the essence of Montessori education. Because Dr. Montessori is an excellent mathematician, Montessori's mathematics is profound and easy to understand, which can completely become an independent preschool teaching system. The uniqueness of Montessori mathematics lies in that she has transformed an abstract and almost boring mathematical model into a vivid and vital operating system.

Fourth, the language field.

Especially when it comes to the combination of learning and application, our children have read a lot of books, but they are not good at speaking, and even dare not speak in public. Our children know many words, but they have a headache and are afraid of writing. What is the reason? This is often due to the lack of a large number of language and writing exercises for learning;

Verb (abbreviation for verb) in the field of science and culture.

The importance of science and culture is well known. Parents in China have always attached great importance to their children's learning culture, but many parents just regard literacy, reciting poems and doing arithmetic as culture for their children to learn. This is very narrow, and the meaning of science and culture is very broad. In particular, children should learn extensive knowledge such as history, science and technology, astronomy and geography from an early age. For example, history is a mirror that can reflect the future; Science can let children plug in the wings of imagination and so on. Children should be knowledgeable from an early age, and erudition is the width of life, and width is the foundation of a building. People can't decide the length of life, but they can decide the width of life. Scientific culture has cast the breadth of children's life.
