How many parts are there in Montessori's daily life education? What are they?
Dr Montessori divides daily life education into four categories: action education, self-care, environmental care and social etiquette.

1, the so-called action education is to expose children to the basic actions they do in daily life, which is the basis of the other three practical activities. In action education, children need to practice not only finger movements, but also whole-body activities. For example. Walk, stand, sit, move, twist, fall, sew, cut, etc.

2. Take good care of yourself in order to improve children's self-care ability and let children adapt to real life. This part of the exercise includes putting on clothes, shoes and hats, taking things, brushing your teeth, washing your hands, washing your face, using clothes racks and so on. Compared with other activities, this exercise needs the teacher's direct help.

3. Caring for the environment refers to taking other living things and inanimate objects other than human beings as objects, so that children can learn the methods of beautifying, cleaning and tidying up the environment, and master the relevant skills of caring for, raising and managing animals and plants. For example, washing clothes, ironing clothes, watering, taking care of animals and plants. The characteristic of this part is that children need a lot of equipment and learn a lot of related operations in specific exercises.

The significance of daily life education

Daily life education refers to the process of forming children's independent personality through action education closely related to daily life in a certain regional cultural environment, and it is a compulsory course in the process of forming their personality. Education and training in daily life is usually considered as the necessary content of Montessori curriculum.

Daily life education helps children acquire the necessary life skills in daily life, and form an independent personality and a perfect personality. In the process of participating in life practice, children acquire some skills and form some wishes, which helps them concentrate on their studies in other activities.
