Respect children's independence: only independent people can enjoy freedom.

The activity of children is his characteristic. Adults should not interfere or forbid them. Teachers should never "order" or "order" children. Let him direct himself and obey his orders.

Respect for children's independence, children can naturally exercise their muscles and bones, and a healthy body will follow.

2. Silence and activity: respecting children's independence does not mean letting them do whatever they want, and children should not think that being quiet, obedient, obedient and passive is a good thing; And activity or work is a bad thing.

Montessori's teaching method emphasizes children's active exploration and pays attention to designing inspiring teaching situations and teaching AIDS, so that children can learn through specific operations, not just attending classes.

3. Spirit is better than method: Montessori hopes that teachers should not "actively" want to "teach" children, but be a "bystander" and watch all the behaviors of children.

The only thing that must be done by people is to design or make many teaching AIDS, and even encourage children to play and manipulate as much as possible. This is the greatest respect for children.

4. Individual freedom precedes social discipline: freedom comes first and order comes second.

Montessori education pays attention to "individuality". All his life's efforts have emphasized: "liberating children is the mission of educators;" Therefore, priority should be given to children's personal freedom. "

5. Sense of order in childhood: Montessori found that one of the behavioral characteristics of children is the sense of order.

Most people think that children's rooms or playgrounds must be in a mess, and toys or scraps of paper are thrown all over the floor, which makes adults have a headache. They also think that this is a serious educational problem for children, and we should try our best to cultivate children's neat and clean habits as soon as possible.

6. Cancel the reward and punishment system: "If a person can enjoy the right of freedom and restrain himself, then he will pursue those goals that can inspire and encourage him or make him feel valuable. These real values come from the freedom and strength of human inner life.

They can give people the greatest enthusiasm. "Many parents are accustomed to using material or external rewards or punishments to stimulate their children to establish a value orientation for something, while ignoring the value of the thing itself.

The value of the thing itself is the most reliable primitive force, which will not exist because of the existence of external stimuli, nor will it disappear because of the disappearance of external stimuli.

7. Cultivate children's independence: From the beginning of weaning, we must continue to work hard to help children step into the road of independence and cultivate their ability to live independently, starting with the most basic walking and sleeping.

Let them achieve their goals, meet their needs and experience the joy of success. Parents need to pay more patience and efforts to help their children master skills, rather than directly let their children get results.
