This article reminds us that purposeful movement is a fundamental building block for our children’s growth and development. Maria Montessori knew this when she was practicing and creating her pedagogy, and we know it here at Bridgeview Montessori. We are seeing a shift toward movement and occupational therapy in our public schools as well. I am always struck by just how much Maria Montessori understood about how children learn.
