Don’t Need Financial Aid? Step to the Front of the Line!

The fallout of the economic and financial meltdown of 2009 was far reaching. Private schools did not escape the consequences either. But that may be a good thing for you.

School Security: It Could Never Happen Here Or Could It?

School shootings and other emergency situations won’t happen in your school, right? Who knows! Better to put in place the steps necessary to protect the school community than to be caught unprepared.

Ideal Montessori School | Healthy Beginnings Montessori

“Education is a natural process carried out by the child and is not acquired by listening to words but by experiences in the environment” – Dr Maria Montessori

The term ‘Montessori’ is not trademarked nor is there a patent on it. So, any school can call themselves a ‘Montessori school’. American Montessori Society(AMS ) and American Montessori Internationale(AMI) are the organizations that help promote and maintain quality of Montessori education across the globe. Schools that are accredited by these organizations are expected to implement the fundamental principles of the Montessori philosophy and are held accountable by them through the years. On top of that, if a Montessori school is AMS/AMI accredited or affiliated, they are bound by their regulations to implement the philosophy effectively.

The location – country, state, city, county etc. may have certain provisions in place that govern how schools should function. In USA, the state licensing governs how and if all the mandatory regulations for child safety are implemented effectively in the child care setting/school.

Now the question is … If you are looking to enroll your child in a ‘Montessori’ school, what should you look for?

There is not a specific checklist for an ideal school, as every child, parent, family is unique and their needs could be different. What each family looks for in a Montessori school would vary on their specific child and their own parenting styles. But, the list below can serve as a guideline and if most or at least a few are checked at the school you are touring, that could be a good Montessori school.

*The first and foremost thing is for a school to have a ‘home’ like setting with neutral painted walls.

Children spend most of their waking time with the guides at a school, so a nice beautiful home away from home would work perfect to serve as a great Montessori school for ages 0-6.

*Classrooms with Montessori materials, big enough to accommodate about 20+ children without restricting their movement.

Children especially those in the 0-6 years of age are in the big developmental phase for movement. A classroom that helps the child move their body freely without overwhelming them at the same time would be a perfect bet. Authentic Montessori materials made of wood or other natural materials. Less or almost no plastic is preferred.

*A real kitchen, preferably with a dishwasher, oven, counter space to comfortably include cooking/baking as part of the curriculum

Food preparation activity is an integral part of the Montessori Practical life. A classroom with real utensils, baking supplies, counter space to make snack/bake simple things etc would be a great component of a lovely Montessori classroom. Use of real utensils, cloth placemats and napkins, family style lunch are such lovely concepts of Montessori environment.

*Large windows and Good natural lighting in the classrooms

This is important to maintain a good mood inside the room and also for children to do window washing, observe different color objects etc by the window, look outside to see nature etc.

*Nice backyard for children to run around and play.

Even if play structures are not present, there should be activities to promote movement, imagination and curiosity. Wheel barrow to move dirt around, gravel pit to scoop and play , balance beam etc are great additions to have to a play ground area.

*Indoor live plants and outdoor gardening area. Beautiful real flowers for children to do flower arranging.

Indoor plants in the classroom can provide for great Practical life activities like watering the plants, Leaf polishing etc. Gardening both indoors and outdoors is a great way for children to understand and contribute to care of environment.It helps children learn the process of plant care, germination, life cycle of fruits and vegetables etc.

Flower arranging is a great Practical life activity that teaches the child care of environment, cutting skills, math skills to estimate volume of water required to fill vase, purposeful movement to take vases to the tables etc. Real flowers in a Montessori classroom make it very exciting and inviting to the child.

*Neutral wood tables and chairs. Child size shelves. Simple art on the walls representing nature/world we live in.

*Pets in entry way/library/ classroom is optional but would be nice to have.

Care of pets is a great practical life activity for children- it also helps teach Grace and Courtesy & respect for other living beings.

*Montessori trained teachers who are passionate and have a deeper understanding of the philosophy: Most importantly those that love , respect and believe in the child are a big asset to a school.

*Uninterrupted Montessori work cycle which helps child build their focus and concentration, leading up to self-actualization and Normalization is a critical component of a great Montessori school.

*Personal touch offered by school administration and teachers to welcome all families at the school. This is a key concept of inclusion and helps child understand the concept of living in harmony and peace with all.

*Schools that incorporate Peace, study of all cultures, include music and art in their core curriculum is a really nice feature of a good Montessori school.

If a child is respected and loved in an encouraging environment that is prepared to meet their developmental needs,where mistakes are treated as learning opportunities and they are motivated to learn respectfully, that is the ideal place for the child to be in their formative years.

What are some things you look for in a Montessori school? Let us know your thoughts on the list and points discussed in this post.

Read what parents are saying about Ideal Montessori School

Excellent. My child had the best of teachers from kindergarten to eight grade. The best elementary education. A well train and discipline child. Was very well prepare for her next step in high school.

Posted by a parent on 7/21/2019

This is a great school. The principal cares about all the students and knows them all by name. She is always there every day to receive them. The kids who attend this school go on to greatness!! Great curriculum. Every student does handwriting in every grade. The teachings is old school methods it is fascinating, My child attended this school for four years, and i have kept all his notes and projects for him to reflect on. This is one of the greatest teachings ever!. Heads up and congratulations to the principal of Ideal Montessori School. It has been a pleasure to be there.

Posted by a parent on 10/11/2016

Two of my children attended this school, from pre-k through 8th grade. I enjoyed their time there! The focus is on education! Both were totally prepared for specialized high school testing and got in, one to Brooklyn Tech, the other to Bard High School Early College. They have become remarkable young adults. My son graduated May 2015 from UAlbany and my daughter will graduate December 2015 from the same university.Thank you Ideal Montessori!

Posted by a parent on 9/18/2015

I have spent my whole life in Montessori. They have trained me since I was a baby to achieve greatness. Now i am in a specialized highschool. All because of my years in that school. So you can take my word for it.An alumni’s word. Enroll your child. But as advice you should also enroll your students in an extra classes in their hobby. That is the only downfall of this school. The lack of extra classes besides cooking,singing,and computer.

Posted by a community member on 6/25/2012

My daughter attends this school and I am very pleased with her performance and with my decision to send her there. Her reading and math skills are beyond her grade level. The classes are small, the teachers and principal are very focused on the academic achievement of the students. Some reviews have complained about the strictness of the school, the fact that there is no after school program or have a gymnasium. If those things are more important for you as a parent then this school is not right for your son or daughter, however if academic excellence is more important I highly recommend this school. I am all for structure and discipline so I applaud the efforts of the principal and staff of Ideal Montessori.

    I like this school but coming from the school system in Maryland, it’s not the best. I have a child in Kindergarten and I love his teachers. He’s been learning a lot and enjoys himself very much. My second grader however, his teacher just has too many students. So I feel that the teacher simply doesn’t give each child the attention they deserve. He’s learning and enjoys school but I just wish classes were kept smaller. Overall it’s a decent school with very nice and helpful staff. Also, they desperately need to come up with a vehicle drop off and pick-up system because it gets ridiculous with the double parking.

    This school produces test scores and whatever is necessary to get their city funding. They provide a poor community for parents and children. You can’t walk into the school without being asked for money. The after school program that helps kids with homework does not even check their work and they charge astronomical fees for no homework help. Administration is completely rude and won’t talk to you unless they are pushing some sort of agenda. The principal might as well be a car saleswoman. She never wants to chat about the children just push test scores down your throat or asks for money. Last year in PTA the largest complaint most parents had was there was no sense of community. The school’s solution to develop community was to charge kids money to come watch movies in the gym. They spare no expense at PTA meetings on dinner but at graduations they are pinching pennies and ask the parents for money to pay for graduation ceremonies, but the staff has a lavish year end dinner at a fancy catering hall. I put my child in several different programs at PS 46 and she came out of most with nothing.

    When my daughter first started kindergarten at this school, I was nervous, especially the first couple of weeks when there was indeed some yelling and screaming. But as the year went on, I became very impressed with the quality and care seen amongst the staff for the students. I am very impressed with the efforts 220 makes in establishing a sense of community and family in the school. Family outings and special events and classes are constantly being planned to bring parents and students together. There is a large immigrant population at 220 and I feel the school does it’s best to make sure nobody is left out. My daughter learned an incredible amount of information and looked forward to going to school everyday.

    My daughter is in Grade 2 and I am so happy with her improvement. Mrs. Sedlmaier is an excellent teacher who keeps me informed on the areas that my daughter needs improvement and also what she is good at. Its rare to find teachers like Mrs. Sedlmaier, she cares about the children. I wish she can teach my daughter in 3rd grade also.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.

Early Childhood Development: The Montessori Method

What do you know about the Maria Montessori Method? Maybe you have heard rumors about the unlimited freedom of children? Or have you seen expensive game materials in stores, without which “Montessori development” is impossible? This article is for those who have not yet heard about Maria Montessori and her methodology for developing children.

A self-sufficient, harmoniously developed person, useful to himself and society and able to make both himself and his loved ones happy – this is the ideal that Maria Montessori tried to educate, developing new principles and tools for the development of children. The Montessori methodology has two leading leitmotifs: non-violence and independence.

The principle of non-violence

Even 100 years ago, the Italian pediatrician, teacher, psychologist Maria Montessori lamented how the child’s personality is suppressed everywhere in the family. The child is not asked when and what he will eat; dress not so much according to the weather, but according to their own feelings of heat or cold; forced to act and learn the way adults want it – and for disobedience they are punished. By becoming the first female doctor in Italy, Maria Montessori protested against the established order of things, because medical education in Italy at the end of the 19th century was available only to men. The protest of the pediatrician, who gained experience in working with children with developmental delays, also touched on the field of education. Maria Montessori insisted that for the development of both lagging and healthy children, a certain environment organized by adults is required, where the baby could act independently and do what he wants at the moment, with the benefit of his learning and development.

The principle of independence

Let us emphasize once again: according to Maria Montessori, the child is engaged not in “what he wants”, but in what he wants precisely in a developing environment organized by an adult. Montessori-style educators and parents provide the child with a choice of educational materials that can be taken up at any time and in any order. Nevertheless, there are certain tasks laid down in these materials, and a certain discipline that is present in them – there is! But in order for the child to learn and develop freely in this environment, he must be given a certain degree of independence. You are laughing in vain: not all parents are able to psychologically “let go” of a child from themselves, so as not to prevent him from sculpting, counting, creating and studying the world around him. Such parents strive to do everything for the baby, to make his life easier – or to completely deprive him of one or another developmental environment so that there is no emotional or intellectual overload. But not every style of education in action, accompanied by an “organized developmental environment” (that is, a room with toys), can bear the name of Maria Montessori.

Subject-learning environment

The formation of a subject-learning educational environment is the cornerstone of Maria Montessori’s methodology. “Help me do it myself” is a principle found in almost all tutorials. The child learns in the game with objects, and the objects must interact with each other within the framework of the learning task. Montessori materials can be made from improvised means using a colander and string; sieve and flour; rice and beans, etc. Montessori identifies five zones for the development of the child, which are present in Montessori centers:

  • The practical life zone gives the child the opportunity to learn everyday skills – ironing clothes, tying shoelaces, setting the table, washing clothes, brushing teeth.
  • In the zone of sensory development, the child gets acquainted with the shape, texture, size, weight of objects. In this zone, various cubes, turrets, samples of fabrics and other material, geometric plates are placed.
  • Mathematics zone concentrates counting material, texture figures, scores, counting cards. This area will be useful for children from 3 years old. The main task of the mathematical zone is the formation of the concept of quantity, as well as the development of logical thinking.
  • The language zone will be of interest to those kids who want to learn to read and write. Felt pens, a writing board, letters of the alphabet of various sizes and textures, copybooks, books and games to develop reading skills are located in this zone.
  • Finally, the space zone is responsible for the formation of ideas about the environment. Geographic atlases, star maps, clocks, posters about the seasons and other materials that can acquaint a child with the history of the appearance of the world and its structure will help with this.

As you can see, creating a Montessori environment at home is not at all difficult. It is necessary to remember and adhere to several principles:

  • set a learning task for the child
  • sort out mistakes and correct them within one lesson
  • put away all the materials at the end of the lesson
  • observe the child while solving the learning problem without doing anything and without interfering
  • within the framework of the learning task, praise the child not in general words: “well done”, “clever girl”, etc. , but evaluate specific successes: “you quickly laced up”, “you turned out this letter beautifully”
  • exercise according to a pre-arranged schedule

And in order not to miss such important areas of development as creativity, communication and physical development, which are practically not given attention in the system of Maria Montessori, be sure to plan additional activities. Let the development of your child bring joy to you and him!

The ideal to strive for is a healthy person / Maria Montessori Pedagogy Journal: articles, reviews and news

Maria Montessori

Maria Montessori wrote in 1932 and immediately published her short
brochure in Geneva. A terrible time hung over humanity – the lives of people
carried away the plague. The lethal outcome, according to old newspapers, exceeded 50% of the total
the number of sick people. It is difficult for our generation to imagine how people lived in those
times, so today many do not see the point in vaccinations against covid. But in
world without vaccines, people did not live past forty, and the spread of the disease
stopped when a third of the population of a city or country perished. And so
please read what Maria Montessori called for then. Her clairvoyance
seems to be brilliant. She compares the epidemic of the disease with the war and
indicates its path of development of human civilization.

Maria Montessori

from the article “Mir and Education”, Geneva, 1932

Archive of the grace of Honegger Freshko

Translation from French Lyudmila Pechatnikova

All unknowable should become the subject of the study itself, the idea of ​​research suggests the presence hidden causes, whose influence is difficult to assess. Therefore, the causes of the war cannot be reduced to known and obvious factors associated with social and economic inequality, with the unfair results of previous wars.

These logical reasons are the stages preceding the new war.

Such an idea can be illustrated by a story connected with the war only indirectly – physically. I’m talking about a terrible disaster – a plague that is capable of destroying humanity and has remained invincible and incomprehensible for centuries. And we were able to defeat it only when knowledge replaced ignorance, when science discovered the hidden causes of the disease.

As you know, the plague, like war, suddenly arose from time to time, and just as suddenly the epidemic stopped. People, not understanding the reasons for what was happening, could not influence anything. Terrible epidemics entered the history of mankind along with wars. The plague once claimed more lives, caused more damage to the economy of different countries than war. In the XlV century, the plague in China alone killed 10 million lives, its destructive wave reached Russia, Asia Minor, Egypt, reached Europe, threatened the death of all mankind. In total, according to Gekker, more than 25 million people died from the plague – not a single war killed so many, even the World War. Human losses are economic recession, and poverty, and hunger, and the mental imbalance of those who managed to survive. It is difficult for people who have suffered to return to ordinary life, to constructive activity, to civilization.

How did people explain the epidemic to themselves?

It is interesting to see how people explained this disaster to themselves and how they tried to protect themselves from it. From Homer and Titus Livius to medieval chroniclers, everyone agrees on one thing: a plague arises through the fault of villains who scatter poison. The historian Dio Cassius, describing the plague of 189 after the birth of Christ, reports that cruel people were found in the empire who scattered poisoned needles everywhere for money. Later, under Pope Clement VI, Jews were accused of a similar crime and exterminated. During the siege of Naples, a plague broke out and destroyed 400 thousand people – almost the entire population of the city and three-quarters of the enemy army that besieged the fortress. The Neapolitans considered the French poisoners, the French – the Italians.

Even more interesting are the documents found in the Ambrosian library in Milan concerning a court case against two “poisoners” who were accused of being responsible for the famous plague in Milan. The accused were sentenced to death. For the benefit of others. This is perhaps the only case of a judicial investigation “according to the law”, undertaken in extraordinary circumstances in order to prevent the lynching of an angry mob. The Milan court documents were subsequently commented on many times by different people. Surprisingly, the medical problem was treated as a legal one, as a result of which two people were convicted who were clearly incapable of provoking such a grandiose catastrophe.

Today this situation seems absurd, since we are talking about the plague. But don’t we, when we talk about war, try to lay the responsibility for the world catastrophe on a specific person – be it the Kaiser, Rasputin, or the regicide in Sarajevo?

A different kind of phenomenon, caused by the instinct of self-preservation, could be observed during the most terrible plague epidemics. People who did not catch the infection gathered in the squares, filled the churches, walked around the city with prayers and banners, hoping to be saved from the disease. But, of course, even those who could have escaped suffering were infected in the crowd.

When the epidemic ended, the survivors returned to the joys of life and hoped that the test that brought humanity to the brink of survival would be the last. After all, they survived. Doesn’t this remind you of the activities of international organizations that seem to be trying to prevent a war? So, on the eve of the war (World War I), the European Union was created, designed to maintain world balance – today we clearly understand that it was he who caused a large-scale catastrophe: many countries were involved in the conflict simply because they were bound by allied obligations. And if in our time peoples unite again – in the hope of ending war forever, without changing the previous system in the least, still not understanding the causes of wars, an even more terrible war may break out, which will be waged by people who believe that this war is the most the latter is necessary to establish eternal peace on Earth.

Scientific research has uncovered the invisible cause of plague epidemics: specific bacteria that are spread by rats. But no one paid attention to rodents before.

Having defeated the plague, did people cope with other infectious diseases? So?

As soon as the factors causing the plague became known, it became clear what dangers surround the ignorant medieval city dweller every day. Unsanitary conditions, lack of water and light in houses, overcrowding… This was the cause of not only the plague, but also many other dangerous diseases, not so well known, because they were not so widespread. It turns out that, having defeated the plague, people coped with other infectious diseases, cleansed their homes and cities, through the efforts of rulers and individual citizens. And this was the first chapter in the glorious history of mankind’s victories over microscopic, but formidable creatures.

However, personal hygiene, the great achievement of the antimicrobial and antibacterial campaign, is not the whole story. There is another important result of the long struggle. Human health has become a value. Because only a healthy, well-developed, strong person is able to withstand the risk of infection. And attention to personal health is associated with self-control, with the ability to appreciate life and all its joys. A person stays young longer, happy – lives longer. So, personal health has become an important value. A healthy person has become an ideal to strive for!

Before this battle with disease began, it was simply impossible to find a healthy person. Everyone was either starving or overeating, everyone was poisoned by something – one might say, everyone poisoned himself. And he led himself on the path of suffering to death. Man considered gluttony, drunkenness, and idleness to be the highest pleasures. From the point of view of modern science, it was these joys that led the “lucky one” to death. Voluntary refusal from endless luxurious meals and libations was perceived not as a salvation from illness, but as a sacrifice and the highest virtue. The rejection of fleeting joys seemed to be a rejection of life itself. However, all primitive pleasures led ignorant people to decay. These were the joys of idlers who had lost their taste for an active life. And they became easy prey for any infection – in fact, they were already almost dying. When the love of life finally revived, man, frightened by the consequences of his addictions, turned to the joy of active work, to the light of the sun. Avoidance of luxury, moderate food, vegetarianism and even raw food, physical activity, simple, natural pleasures – this is the way of life of modern people who want to enjoy life, live long and not get sick. In the old days, this would have seemed almost like the existence of a penitent hermit.

About the joys of a long healthy life

Thus, the idea of ​​personal hygiene irreversibly changed the old values: the disastrous pleasures were replaced by the joys of a long healthy life.

Unfortunately, we are not seeing any progress in the field of morality. Here we remain at the level of medieval unsanitary conditions. We know nothing about what threatens our morality. We notice only the external, we perceive vices as a manifestation of freedom, in an effort to cast off the shackles of ancient prejudices, when only sacrifice was considered valor. Working less, letting machines do everything for us, is the ultimate goal that inspires us today. And in our moral chaos, the passion for wealth still dominates, giving rise to pathological stinginess and pathological laziness. The illusion of accumulating treasures, the illusion of pleasure. But these illusions and pleasures are destructive and deadly.

The vast world, open to intelligent and victorious life, is hidden from us. A person, internally vicious, hides himself from the world in a gloomy cave of his own subconscious. If I may, I would compare this situation to an infectious disease that invisibly threatens our lives: tuberculosis. In its early stages, tubercle bacilli cause a frenzied desire for pleasure in a person who at first does not suspect anything. If the plague is a sudden and swift death, then tuberculosis is the slow destruction of a weakening body.

Recovering our senses, regaining our minds – that’s what we need to do, and as soon as possible!

So, we are gradually degenerating in a suffocating atmosphere of illusions and lies. How many moralists today repeat that all troubles come from excessive trust in human reason, that progress cannot be achieved only by the efforts of logic. On the one hand, no one seems to doubt the triumph of reason. On the other hand, almost no one needs the human mind today. Moral decline is just one of the manifestations of our degeneration. Neglect of reason is the second. Our time is crazy. To come to our senses, to regain our mind – that’s what we need to do, and as soon as possible!

If we want to take the path of rebirth, we must turn to children. But to see in them not just babies that we gave birth to and for which we are responsible. We must see them as independent beings, independent of us. We must turn to children as the Messiah, higher beings capable of reviving humanity. We just need to be affirmed in this desire to go to the child – like the biblical Kings who came with gifts, led by the light of the star, the light of hope …

A child is a new person in a three-dimensional, three-dimensional world, who is destined to conquer infinity

Mankind has made an unprecedented leap forward. As if before life was flat, proceeded in two dimensions, and now it has become voluminous, three-dimensional. And to the former, flat, there is no return.

The age-old period has ended, the one that began at the dawn of human history, in the era of legends. This long period is over. Until now, man had to work hard, like a convict, and humiliate himself, like a slave. And yet, chained to the ground, he strove upward. He, a child of love, was forced to exchange in kind. Now that a person has risen to the stars, he can finally stand up to his full height and appear to the world in a new capacity. He’s a baby, a new baby! He is a new person in a three-dimensional, three-dimensional world, destined to conquer infinity. Of course, this is a huge work in which all of humanity must be involved. What can unite us into a single whole? Only love!

This is the picture of modern life. We, the last people who lived in a flat, two-dimensional world, must make an effort to understand what is happening and correspond to the moment. We live in an era of crisis, a break: the old world ceases to exist, the new one already lives, the contours are already tangible. Our crisis is not a transition from one era to another, it is the beginning of a new biological, geological era, when new creatures arise on earth, more perfect, because new conditions have arisen that did not exist before. If we miss the moment now, we cannot avoid a universal catastrophe. If stellar energy falls into the hands of a person who does not realize himself, lives according to the laws of a flat world, and is ready to use this energy for destruction, he will successfully accomplish his plan, since limitless power is available to him. If such a person, who dreams of infecting the whole world, were to have in the hands of plague bacteria in unlimited quantities, despite all the achievements of science in the fight against the disease, he would succeed in his desire to destroy everything. After all, nothing can prevent the killer: neither mountains, nor seas, nor deserts, if he is able to fly over the world.

So what should we do?

Who will blow the trumpet to wake the man who sleeps on the edge of an abyss capable of engulfing him? It is necessary to prepare a person for life in the new world, which has already emerged as a phenomenon of evolution and whose laws it is important to realize in order to work for his benefit, and not for destruction. Also, we must collect together all the elements of this new world and make them the basis of the science of the world.

Maria Montessori

dates of life 1870-1952 – an outstanding Italian teacher, creator of the method of scientific pedagogy and the system of free education and self-education of children of preschool and school age in a specially prepared educational environment, doctor, humanist philosopher.

which parents it suits and which ones it doesn’t – in the analysis on TEA.ru

Today every kid has wooden toys and development toys. It is eco-friendly, practical and fashionable. Interestingly, their history began at the end of the 19th century, when Maria Montessori developed her unique pedagogical model. What is the essence of this technique and why some mothers and teachers actively support it, while others – on the contrary, we figured it out together with neuropsychologist Anastasia Glebova.

What is the Montessori method

The method can be described in one phrase like this: “Help me do it myself.” An expression that is useful for all parents to take note of, regardless of whether they are raising their children according to the Montessori method or not. The global task of adults is to prepare the child for an independent life, in a safe environment to teach everything that is useful for an independent existence. And this technique does not contradict common sense.

The basic principles of the Montessori method are a special environment, minimal adult intervention in the child’s activities, the absence of criticism and prohibitions, a focus on the interests of the child, groups of different ages, clear rules and structure of classes. Let’s take a closer look at what each item means and what its purpose is.

Prepared environment the physical, material basis of the system on which everything else is based. Simply put, this is a spacious room or classroom where the child gradually learns independence. All items in it, from furniture to toys and didactic materials, must be appropriate for the age and height of the student, and be safe for him. Toys and books are located at the level of the child’s eyes in free access, all of them in one copy.

The adult plays a secondary role. The task of the Montessori teacher is to interest the child, adjust to his interests, and then give him the opportunity to act independently, without imposing his opinion. An adult quite calmly and unemotionally shows how to handle this or that toy or aid, and then the child gets complete freedom of action, thoughts and feelings, learns on his own, without advice, prompts and obligations. He does not compete with peers for grades and teacher approval.

Much attention is paid to fine motor skills and the senses. Not only Maria Montessori, but also other educators, psychologists and neuropsychologists recognize that careful manipulations with small details – stringing beads or pasta on a string, sorting cereals or crafts from it, shifting small objects into various containers – have a beneficial effect on the development of speech, intelligence, attention and memory.

The group has rules that are binding on everyone. They help streamline the process and not turn classes into uncontrollable chaos. Children are taught to put toys back in their place, to move chairs, to return a read book to the shelf.

Criticism and prohibitions are not allowed. Montessori pedagogy is based on the principle that a child can reach the desired result on his own, he is not dumber than an adult, he just has little experience. Therefore, the child has the right to make mistakes and try again. An adult does not interfere in relations in a children’s team. Moreover, in the classes, children of different ages are most often: the younger ones repeat after the older ones, the older ones help the younger ones, and they all learn to negotiate among themselves.

Maria Montessori

Good or evil? What is good and bad system

The unique system was invented by the Italian Maria Montessori, a teacher and doctor from Italy. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, she worked a lot with children with developmental delays and disabilities, and defended the rights of their parents. The new methodology was supposed to help special children in the first place, but, convinced of its effectiveness, Montessori adapted all the created principles for ordinary children of different ages. The system fell in love with educators in many countries and spread around the world as an alternative to classical education. However, it has not completely replaced it.

Like any phenomenon or method, Montessori pedagogy has its fans and opponents. And the arguments of each side are quite convincing. Therefore, the final decision rests with the parents. And it should primarily depend on the condition of the child, the characteristics of his development, age and character.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Montessori method

Pros Cons
  • Children learn at their own pace without stress and competition.
  • Classes are non-standard, they are interesting.
  • Initiative and curiosity are encouraged.
  • Children are taught to cope with household chores.
  • No criticism or pressure on children.
  • Children learn to occupy themselves according to their own needs and interests.
  • Respect for personal boundaries and mutual assistance are practiced.
  • It may be difficult to adapt when transferring to a regular school. The child will have to get used to the new rules of discipline, the unconditional authority of the teacher.
  • It is necessary to have a wide variety of benefits to keep the child’s interest.
  • A Montessori environment is difficult to set up at home.
  • Not enough role-playing games of the “daughter-mother” type, which are very important for the development of preschoolers.
  • Children know how to negotiate and help, but often they don’t know how to make friends and play together.

Who the Montessori system is for

  • Parents who value an individual approach to their child. Or those who for some reason do not want to send their baby to a classic kindergarten or elementary school.
  • Children who know how and love to play quietly, draw, do something. Those who have no problems with socialization and communication with peers or adults. Open and inquisitive kids.
  • The system is also good for anxious children, as it was originally designed for them too. For such guys, structure, clarity, a clear understanding of all processes, a minimum of flickering are very important.

Either the whole system or some of its elements, principles or didactic materials can be used. Curiosity and a desire to explore the world are the basic qualities of any child, and Montessori helps to create the right supportive environment for them.

Who is not suitable for the Montessori method

  • If we talk about parents, then in the first place this method will be difficult to accept for those who are used to actively participating in the life of their child and controlling him. Here the child will have to be released almost free swimming. If adults are not ready to move away from the standards of the nursery-kindergarten-school pedagogical system, it will not be easy for them to get used to Montessori methods in specialized institutions.
  • Difficulties can arise in children who are too active and agile, who literally cannot sit still at any activity on a physical level.
  • It will not be easy for babies with speech delay or poor socialization, as problems can be aggravated due to the fact that most of the time the child will spend by himself.
  • If a child has autistic symptoms (one or more, even secondary, implicit), the Montessori technique can also aggravate them: such children themselves are very systemic and prone to structuring, so the system can further close them in itself.

In any case, parents are advised to decide whether to send their children to Montessori kindergarten or classes after diagnosis and consultation with specialists. And for any violations and undesirable changes in the behavior of the baby, think about changing the methodology.

The Montessori method at home: where to start

Focusing on the principles of Montessori, you can independently equip any children’s room or a corner in a common room with parents. The most important rule is that everything that a child uses should be available to him. Of course, we are not talking about babies, but children who, for example, can sit on a chair on their own, should be able to climb onto it without the help of an adult.

The same applies to toys, books and educational aids. Ideally, a separate shelf or cabinet should be set aside for them, located at the height of the child, so that he can take what he needs at any time and put it back on his own after the game. Teaching him to do this is the task of adults, but if he cannot physically reach the shelf with the designer, it is useless to ask him to clean up his toys.

It is important that the toys and the room itself are divided into thematic areas. In the classical Montessori system, they are usually as follows:

  1. Language – for classes on the development of speech and reading, expanding vocabulary, and later – learning to write.
  2. Sensory, where they work with plasticine, cereals, small toys, try different surfaces by touch, rustle, knock, ring, guess which fruit they just ate.
  3. Mathematical – for classes with didactic and counting materials, toys that develop logic; where they learn to compare, build a certain order.
  4. Natural Science Zone, where the baby learns about the world around him. For example, he learns to observe plants, watch the weather, take care of pets.
  5. Creative area with paints, brushes, pencils, coloring books, colored paper and other attributes for creating crafts and drawings.
  6. Sports corner, where you can climb, hang on the horizontal bar, leave the ball and release the accumulated energy.
  7. Play area, in which the baby can roll cars, seat dolls to drink tea and just play any games.
  8. Practical Life Zone – where children learn basic social and everyday skills. In this zone, there may be a mini-kitchen, a store, or something from adult life that is interesting for a child to do.

Of course, this is an ideal picture that can not be repeated in every apartment and room. But the general principle of dividing classes by topic is useful to adopt. This will allow the baby to see more clearly what he can do and make his own choices. For example: we design and build on the carpet, we sculpt from plasticine at the table and study, musical toys are in their box, books are on a separate shelf. A natural science zone can be easily organized on a window sill with indoor plants or on a shelf with a small aquarium, and the whole apartment can be used as a practical life zone.

In special Montessori classes, they organize a kitchen area with small real dishes, a washing area where kids can wet small rags, rinse in a basin and hang them on a rope with clothespins. At home or in the country, you can also involve your child in household chores: ask them to take the washed things out of the typewriter and put them in a basin, wash their rubber boots after a walk, help sort out the products brought from the store, teach them how to cut boiled vegetables for salad not too spicy knife. Children over 2 years old are happy to help and strive to be like their close adults in everything.

Choosing the Right Montessori Toys: Checklist for Parents

Do not think that Montessori toys are prohibitively expensive or complicated. Just the opposite. They are simple, clear and sold in most children’s stores. And often they can even be made by the hands of parents.

Here are some basic criteria to consider when buying.

  1. Natural shades and materials: wood, fabric and even metal for older children. They’re greener, nicer to the touch, and healthier than cheap, eye-patch-colored plastic toys.
  2. One toy, one function. The ball should be a ball, not a music box, the matryoshka should teach how to make a sequence, she does not need to sing and glow with bright lights. Extra functions entertain, but do not develop, it is difficult for a child to concentrate.
  3. Realism is essential. Your baby will still have time to see monsters, pirates, fairies and unicorns, and at the initial stages of development, the realism of shapes, colors and textures is much more important. That is, the frog should be green and smooth, the cat should be fluffy, the car should be iron. Agree that a pink plastic dog with a huge head is unlikely to give the baby the right idea about this kind of animal.

And most importantly: the toy must correspond to the level of development of the child and the didactic tasks that he faces now.

Sample list of toys for children from 0 to 3 years old:

  1. Wooden frame inserts.
  2. Tactile lotto.
  3. Mosaic.
  4. Chests and piggy banks, where you need to put something small.
  5. Nesting dolls and pyramids of various shapes.
  6. Laces.
  7. Sorters of varying complexity with an emphasis on color or shape.
  8. Toys imitating real objects: dishes, tools, fruits and vegetables.
  9. Magnetic fishing.
  10. Labyrinths for the development of spatial thinking.
  11. Montessori Cylinders.
  12. Seguin boards.
  13. Musical instruments, as realistic and simple as possible: maracas, tambourine, drum.
  14. Balancers for training agility and precision.
  15. Interhemispheric boards.

For older kids, it can be construction sets with nuts and washers, all kinds of puzzles, Lego, experiment kits, board games and family quizzes. Some of them are probably in your child’s arsenal, which means that you are already trying the Montessori method.

How to behave as an adult so as not to interfere with the process

The basic principle “Don’t interfere” can mislead parents that children in a Montessori class are left to their own devices. This is not true. The role of the adult is extremely important here.

It depends on him whether the child will understand how to use the benefits, play games, and perform household tasks. An adult – be it a teacher or a parent who wants to join the methodology – acts as an assistant. But he does not do anything for the child, but organizes the process.

For example, if a baby is interested in lids, it is the adult’s job to provide a variety of lids: snap-on, twist-on, different shapes and sizes. The child will understand the principle of work and will master different options. Having learned how to unscrew the cap of a plastic bottle, which is comfortable in size for a small hand, he will be able to move on to tubes of cream, where he will have to work with his fingers, or to lids from large jars, which need to be opened with two hands.

If the kid has shown interest in drawing, the adult’s task is to show a variety of tools (crayons, paints, pencils, felt-tip pens, stamps) and ways to create drawings. Let the child choose what he likes, whether he changes the brush for a pencil every two minutes or draws only with crayons for a week.

Why children definitely need to draw >>

The main task of an adult in the Montessori system is to make the child enjoy the process and be satisfied with the result. In this case, of course, the process must be organized absolutely safely. It is important not to impose your opinion, not to lead the child with your tips to where the adult wants, but to give him a real opportunity to choose and act on his own. You can provide help and support only when it is really important.

VALUES OF MONTESSORI EDUCATION: ANTHROPOLOGICAL CONTEXT

conditions of free education.

Key words: freedom, work, free work, “normalization through work”, spiritually developing potential of the hand.

“Man is a being living in the world of values,” asserted the German philosopher M. Scheler, the founder of philosophical anthropology, in one of his works [9]. Indeed, not only the fateful dominants of individual life, but also, to a large extent, the cumulative humanitarian characteristics of the principles of life ordering of a particular society and humanity as a whole, directly depend on what values ​​each of us chooses in the status of meaning-affirming landmarks of the life path.

At present, in the status of an obvious and indisputable anthropological “order” of modern pedagogy, there are such directions of pedagogy that set as their goal the education of a free personality capable of creative self-development in the humanitarian plane of values ​​and ideals of human culture.

As more than a century of experience in practical implementation shows, the value ideas of free education of a self-sufficient and responsible person are realized with the greatest educational success in the humanistically oriented pedagogy of Maria Montessori.

M. Montessori’s pedagogical system is an open space for the educational formation and development of a child’s personality, which implies instrumental-content and, accordingly, value (regional-continental) enrichment of the subject didactic material of the prepared environment. For example, the analysis of the results of a survey of students AMI (International Montessori Association) on Montessori pedagogy from

from 23 countries in Europe, Asia, Latin America and Africa, conducted in 1998 (K.E. Somnitelny), showed that in the classical construction of the “Space Education” section, along with the national transformation of the content of the “Big History” section written by M. Montessori herself, some exercises at the preschool level were also changed. So, in the Japanese version, the “sorting” exercise is carried out with the help of chopsticks, and in Africa, the “Special types of movements” section includes the “carrying an object on the head” exercise [5, p. fifteen].

Fundamental in the system of raising children in Montessori education is the value category of freedom. It is the principle of “freedom” that acts as “fundamental for my pedagogical system,” argued M. Montessori [2, p. 19].

Moreover, proceeding from another fundamental position of his system – “not to interfere with the natural development” of the child, M. Montessori correlates the issues under consideration with the main and “only” question of all pedagogy: “how to give the child freedom” [2, p. 21]. And this applies not only to the free (natural) development of “the forms and abilities of the growing body.” Freedom is primarily seen as “a unique means to maximize the development of the personality, character, mind, feelings” of the child. At the same time, as a “reverse” side, the so-understood freedom is interpreted as evidence of the successful self-disclosure of the nature of the child, as the freedom to “liberate” “leaders” and teachers “from the heavy burden of false responsibility and imaginary fear”, I grant0003

giving a pleasant opportunity to directly “observe the miracle of growing up” of a child [2, p. 21].

According to M. Montessori, in the case when adults (teachers, parents) create favorable conditions for the most complete realization of the “effort of the child’s soul to self-construct” [1, p. 149], a “special environment” is organized appropriately, which “facilitates the growth of the child”, in which “all barriers to development are reduced as much as possible” [1, p. 150], an adult, acting as an essential “part” of the developing environment, must “adapt to the needs of the child, help his independence”, and therefore he “has no right to become an obstacle for him, replacing him in the main activities and development” [1, p. . 150].

Thus, M. Montessori refers to the obstacles to the free development of the child’s personality, the quite natural and familiar fact of “substitution” or “doing for” in his relationships with adults, which significantly reduces the subject-relationship sphere of independent (self-constructive) action / deed maturing person in the value-semantic plane of individualized choice.

If such “obstacles” are removed, the value spectrum of Montessori educational subjectivity is enriched with another significant, activity-motivated, facilitation in its meaning category of the “passive teacher”, which “influences” the child in such a way that the activity came from himself [1, p. 150], tries to “wake up the energy” of self-creation [1, p. 191], and therefore will be “quite satisfied, seeing a child acting according to his inner impulses, making progress” [1, p. 150-151].

M. Montessori characterizes the inner state of such a teacher with the term “intellectual calmness” as a “free state” or “spiritual liberation”, which is devoid of expressed manifestations of “ambition and prejudice”, and therefore “approaches spiritual purity”, “teaches to understand the child” [1, p. 190-191].

As another attributive educational value of his pedagogical system, M. Montessori singles out in the status of unconditional humanitarian significance the category

children’s self-constructive labor, considering its importance no less (comparatively, perhaps even more complex) than productive labor: “Children are a special class of society, no worse than workers. Children also work, creating a person in themselves … They get tired of physical and spiritual growth. They got the most difficult task. They have nothing but inner potential. But they must all fulfill in the world that. so complicated (our italics – D.K.)” [2, p. 23].

In this regard, Montessori’s pedagogical system is characterized by a term used to characterize the fact of active “interaction” of a child with didactic material in a prepared environment: the child actually works with the material, i.e., is engaged in learning, developing, educating, personally creating work.

In hermeneutic terms, work is an action on the verb to work: what someone is doing, occupation, labor; where to work – to do some business, using your labor, to do something, to work [8, p. 642, 643].

The high (in fact, adult) labor significance of the status of the activity of the child’s self-development – free work in Montessori education – is also confirmed by the axiological component present in the hermeneutic spectrum of the term under consideration: “Work is a human activity; aimed at creating values ​​or at meeting the needs of other people (highlighted by us – D. K.)” [3].

In this regard, it is not accidental that the phenomenon of a child’s “free work” in a prepared environment is one of the basic values ​​of Montessori pedagogy.

M. Montessori emphasizes that the “education of a personality” or a “free child” depends on a fundamental decision to create special conditions for him – a certain environment in which he can find what he needs for the development of his own functions [1, p. 273]. Outside the prepared environment, “the child’s practical activity is impossible.” Moreover, the independent, initiative free work of the child in a prepared environment is an exceptionally necessary and “completely special” side of his spirits.0003

life, because it contributes to its normalization and, above all, “normalization through work”.

In this regard, M. Montessori emphasizes that the actual “working activity” is a kind of deep “call of nature” of the child, since without such “work it is impossible to build a personality, it will develop deviations. A person builds himself through work that cannot be replaced by anything else – neither well-being, nor tender love (italics in the text of M. Montessori – D.K.)” [1, p. 274].

The phenomenon of “normalization” occurs “when children concentrate on some kind of activity.” However, it is necessary that in the space surrounding the child “there are motives that can arouse his interest” in children, it is important that “the process of work arouses their sincere respect and interest.” It is equally important that the “objects” of the didactically prepared environment “could be used for their intended purpose”, created, as M. Montessori emphasizes, “a kind of “mental order” and contributed to the development of “coordination of movements” [4, p. 142-143].

Mental order and coordination of movements “prepare the ability to concentrate”, upon reaching which the child becomes “free in his actions” and, most importantly, “freed from vices” [4, p. 142], i.e. actually “normalizes”, naturally passes into the state of “strengthening and development of the personality”, which has received “freedom of action”.

Thus, the “free choice of activities” in a Montessori-prepared environment, in contact with the outside world and other children, becomes the child’s “way of life”, contributing to the manifestation of such “amazing” qualities as “spontaneous discipline”, “the ability to continuously and with joy to work”, “the desire to help each other”, “mutual understanding” [4, p. 143].

It should be emphasized that, in this respect, we are talking fundamentally about manual work performed directly by the hand as “the leading instrument of mental development”, “the executive organ of the mind”, a means of “spiritual construction”

children: manually, through work in which the hand is an instrument of personality, an instrument of individual thinking and will, building its own formation in the world around us (highlighted by us – D.K.)” [4, p. 274].

By analogy with speech development, M. Montessori calls the self-constructive activity of a child’s hand “the babble of a working person”, who, being in a properly prepared environment, often performs actions that “with their dexterity and accuracy lead us into bright amazement (our italics – D. K.)” [4, p. 116].

In this regard, M. Montessori argues, not without reason, that adults should closely monitor the development of a child’s hand and “consider its success a holiday” [4, p. 110].

Thus, the fateful significance of the human hand embodied in folk wisdom is “Everything is in the hands of man! – has deep psycho-physiological and thus educational-pedagogical, natural, natural roots.

Anthropologically irreplaceable importance of the hand was emphasized by Anaxagoras in his time: “Man is the most intelligent of animals due to the fact that he has hands” [6, p. 251]. After many centuries, in a confirming context, the French philosopher and anthropologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin also testified to this, according to which the activity of the hand, functionally unpredictable in its instrumental and expressive infinity, as “an outwardly expressed gesture of reflection itself” is one of the most important causes and conditions ” brain improvement” of a person [7, p. 280].

Thus, it should be noted that the anthropological significance of the considered – and far from all – the values ​​of Montessori education lies primarily in the pedagogically approved status of natural conformity to the individual and personal development of the child, which in this case cannot but be free, i.e. self-valuable in the activity of genuine self-construction.

Montessori teacher

The first step that a future Montessori teacher must take is to prepare himself. He must have imagination. It is known that teachers in ordinary schools observe the actual behavior of students, knowing that they must watch them and what they must teach them; and the Montessori teacher is constantly looking for the “absent” child. This is the main difference. A teacher who begins to work in our school must believe that the child will discover himself in work. He must free himself from all preconceived notions about the “levels” and “types” into which children are assigned. Different types of children (with greater or lesser deviations from the norm) should not disturb him.

In his imagination, the teacher sees the only normal type living in the spirit world. The teacher must trust that the child will show his true nature when he finds a job that interests him. What is he watching? When this or that child begins to concentrate. For this, the teacher must make every effort, and his activity will be cognitive and gradual, as is the case in proper spiritual ascent. What a teacher does usually has three stages.

Stage 1.

The teacher becomes a guardian and guardian of the environment. He does this instead of suffering because of the disrespect of children. Then the healing and attraction will come, which will attract and polarize the will of the children. In our villages, each family has its own house, and the hostess makes it as attractive as possible for herself and her husband. She pays a lot of attention to the home, creating an environment in which a normal and creative life can flourish. She is trying to turn her home into a comfortable and cozy place full of various interests. The main charm of the house is its cleanliness and order, all things are in their places.

The teacher at our school does the same. All items must be in good condition and in order. Everything should be thought out, then these materials will also seem new and ready for use to the child. In addition, the teacher should also be attractive, good-looking, neat, clean, calm and dignified. This is the ideal to which everyone should aspire. Being in the company of children, one must always remember that children are “voters”. The teacher’s appearance is the first step to gaining their trust and respect. The teacher should study his movements and make them as soft and graceful as possible. At this age, the child idealizes his mother. We may not know her, but hear from a child who sees a pretty woman: “How beautiful she is – just like my mother!” It is possible that his mother is not beautiful at all, but she seems to the child just like that. And everyone he admires is as beautiful as his mother. Thus, concern for the teacher’s own personality must be an integral part of the environment in which the child lives; the teacher himself is an essential part of his world. So, the first duty of a teacher is to observe the environment. Its influence is indirect, but if it does not exist, there will be no effective permanent improvements: physical, intellectual, spiritual.

Stage 2.

Having improved the environment, we must analyze how the teacher should behave towards children. What can we do with these disorganized little ones, with these messy and indefinite little minds that we hope to get some work done? I sometimes use a word that is easily misunderstood: the teacher must be seductive, must captivate the children. Manifesting himself, the teacher should be like a flame, warming everything with its warmth, inviting and pouring new strength. The teacher should not be afraid that he will interrupt some important mental process that has not yet had time to manifest itself. Before concentration, the leader can do to a greater or lesser extent what he considers necessary; he can interfere in the children’s activities as much as he thinks necessary… A teacher who has a gift for enchanting children can invite them to perform various exercises, even those that have no educational value, but which can calm the children. Everyone knows that a fun teacher is more likely to engage kids than a boring one, and we can all be fun if we try…

If at this stage there is still a child persistently annoying others, the best thing to do is to stop him. We often repeat that when a child is engrossed in work, the teacher should not interfere with his activity, so as not to interrupt its cycle or interfere with its free development; but in this case the correct methodological device is quite the reverse: it is necessary to disrupt the course of destructive activity. This may come in the form of an exclamation, showing special interest in a restless child. A distracting demonstration of love, increasing in direct proportion to the disturbing activity of the child, will act on him like a series of electrical discharges and will give a result in time.

Stage 3.

Eventually the time comes when the child begins to show interest in something – usually exercises from practical life; experience shows that children’s work with sensory material is useless and harmful until they are ready to benefit from it.

Before introducing children to this kind of material, any teacher should wait until they can find the strength to concentrate on something, and usually, as I said, this happens in practical life exercises. When a child begins to show interest in one of them, the teacher should not interrupt him, since this interest corresponds to the laws of nature and opens up the whole cycle of new activities. But the first step is still so fragile and delicate that when touched, it can disappear again, like a soap bubble bursting, and with it all the charm of this moment will go away.

Praise, help or even a glance is enough to interrupt or disrupt a child… Here is an important principle that can lead to success: once the child has concentration, act as if the child did not exist at all … The duty of the teacher is only to offer new things, knowing that the child has exhausted all the possibilities of those materials that he used earlier.

The ability of a teacher not to interfere comes with practice, but it never comes easily. This means that the teacher needs to rise to spiritual heights. Real spirituality is aware that even helping can be a source of pride.

The real help a teacher can give is not to obey a sentimental impulse. The teacher helps to imbue the love of discipline. Using this quality together with insight, he achieves success, and teaches that a virtuous person becomes happier, happier than the one to whom this good was intended. Real kindness serves the needy without revealing itself, or, when it is revealed, takes the form not of help, but of something natural and spontaneous.

We do not serve the child’s body, because we know that at a certain stage of his development he must do it himself. The basis of our teaching is that in this sense it is not necessary to serve the child. He must acquire physical independence, become independent, he must acquire an independent will and freedom of choice, he must learn to work without interruption. The development of the child proceeds along the path of passing through different stages of independence, one after another, and our knowledge in this area should guide our behavior along this path. This is the art of spiritual service; an art that can only be developed to perfection in working with children.

When the teacher meets the needs of the group of children entrusted to him, he will understand the virtues of social life, and observing the manifestations of the child’s soul will bring him much joy. It is a great privilege to be able to observe them. This is the privilege of a traveler who reached the oasis and heard the murmur of water in the very center of the desert, which seemed so barren, red-hot and hopeless. ..

But this does not happen immediately. At first the teacher will say: “I saw the child as he should be, and he became even better than I expected.” This is what it means to understand early childhood. It is not enough to know the name of the child and the profession of his father: the teacher must know and daily affirm in life the secret of childhood. Thanks to this, he acquires not only deep knowledge, but also a special kind of love, directed not at an individual person. And the secret hidden in the depths of his soul. As children open their souls, the teacher, perhaps for the first time, understands what true love is. These revelations will transform him too. This is something that touches hearts and gradually changes people. This has already been noticed, and it is impossible to remain silent about it. The names of children can be forgotten, but the trace that their souls and the love that they were able to awaken cannot be erased.

There are two levels of love. Often, when we talk about our love for children, we refer to the care with which we surround them, to the caresses and love that we pour out on those whom we know and who awaken imperishable feelings in us. If we have a spiritual relationship with them, we show this by teaching them prayers.

But I’m talking about something completely different. This is a level of love that is no longer personal or material. To serve children is to feel that you are serving the spirit of man, a spirit that must create itself. The differences between the levels were not actually identified by the teachers, but by the children. The teacher feels that he has been lifted to heights he has never known before. The child forces the teacher to grow to the level at which he reaches his sphere.

What is the main sign of the success of a teacher’s transformation? You can formulate it like this: “Now the children work as if I were not here.” Before his transformation, the teacher’s feelings were quite the opposite; he believed that it was he who taught the children, it was he who raised them from a low level to a high one. But now, when the manifestations of the childish spirit are visible, the greatest value that he can reckon with his contribution can be expressed by the words: “I helped this life to fulfill the task set at the creation of the world.

This is a real satisfaction. The teacher who teaches children up to the age of six knows that he has helped humanity in an integral part of its formation. The teacher may not know the children’s details, except for those that the children tell him in a conversation. The teacher may not be interested in knowing how children imagine their future, but he knows for sure that in the formative period, children did what they were supposed to do. And he can say: “I served the spirit of these children, and they carried out their development, and I was their comrade at that time.”

Helping nature, a person rises to the next step, because upward movement is the law of life. It was the children who created this wonderful staircase leading higher and higher. The law of nature is order, when it comes, we understand that we have reached the order of the world. It is clear that nature includes the missions that she entrusted to children – to encourage us adults to achieve a higher level. Children lead us to the highest levels of development of the human spirit, and through this, material problems are solved. This is not an edification, but, most likely, a reminder, and for our teachers, a call, a kind of training program, our only program:

“Oh Lord, help us to understand the secret of childhood so that we can know the child, love and serve him in accordance with the laws of Your justice and follow Your will!”

“MID ABSORPTION.”

Maria Montessori

Translated from English by I. Dichkovskaya.

Montessori | Family club “Flashlight”

“The mind of a child absorbs everything that happens around openly, observing with love, in no way showing indifference”
Maria Montessori

We work according to the developmental system of the Italian teacher and psychologist Maria Montessori .

The Montessori Method has been recognized throughout the world for more than a hundred years as the most effective educational model for children. This is a holistic approach to the development of people, based on a deep knowledge of the psychology, physiology, and age-related characteristics of the child’s development.

The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that children in the age group choose what exactly they want to work on at the moment, for how long, with whom and in what way. In Montessori schools and kindergartens there is no class schedule, no grades and tests .

Learn more about the method

In our club we offer Montessori classes for your child from 6 months to 10 years old.

Together with a Parent (0-3 years old)

The Together with a Parent group was created primarily to help parents organize conditions for the optimal development of their babies. Read more>>

“Mom, me!” – Toddler (from 1.5 to 3 years)

Toddler – translated from English as “a child who starts walking” is a baby aged from one to three and a half years. Toddler is a group in the Montessori system is an adaptation group for short stays for children from 1.3 to 3 years old. Read more>>

Group “Three-six” (from 3 to 6 years old)

What is the essence of the Montessori method? >>

In the traditional upbringing of the end of the 19th century (and often, unfortunately, even now), the child was considered as a kind of empty container into which a lot of things should be “laid”. And how, when and what to lay, adults decide at their discretion. Maria Montessori (1870 – 1952) was one of the first great educators to think otherwise. “Any child is a genius” is not just a hackneyed truth. Nature gives man at birth a gigantic potential. It does not depend on cultural and social characteristics and everyone has it. But this potential will be realized if the appropriate conditions are created or, at least, if natural development is not interfered with.

At one time, Montessori revolutionized pedagogy by proposing a method that allows to individualize the development and education of the child in a fairly large group. Observing the behavior of children, Montessori came to the conclusion that the desire for development is inherent in every child from the very beginning . The kid uses every opportunity to explore the world around him, to develop his body and hone his skills. During classes in a specially prepared environment, each kid gradually begins to show an amazing ability for self-organization, concentration and work on mistakes, laid down by nature itself.

Montessori mixed-age groups do not have lesson schedules, assessments or tests, and progress is measured by the joy of learning. This allows children learn to listen to yourself , make informed choices , be independent, open and self-confident, ask for help in time, trust the world, go your own way at a pace that is comfortable for them, not be afraid of mistakes, accept the diversity of our society and be responsible for your own solutions.

At what age can one start practicing according to the Montessori method? >>

The sooner the better. Ideally, you should start with the “Together with a parent” group at 6-8 months (from the moment of confident crawling).

But the Montessori method is said to be designed for children with special needs. Is it possible to apply it to healthy children? >>

Indeed, Maria Montessori began her research with children placed in a psychiatric hospital. However, it soon became clear to her that the environment plays a big role in supporting the development and upbringing of children. She was fascinated by exploring the potential of these children. Dr. Montessori has put her soul and energy into understanding the anthropological dynamics of the child with special needs. She believed in the existence of an inner source of natural forces to which one can tap, even if at first glance the potential of these so-called “mentally retarded” children seems small. Inspired by the very few studies at that time in the field of teaching children with disabilities, Maria Montessori began to develop her system.

Dr. Montessori’s initial work with children, which was considered “flawed and hopeless”, proved to be so successful that many of these children passed the state exam that “normal” children take in public schools. Not resting on our laurels, Dr. Montessori thought: what would happen in this case if the method was applied to children without special needs?

The opportunity to find the answer to this question was not long in coming. Dr. Montessori opened the first Casa de Bambini school, or, as we know them in the modern Montessori community, the Orphanage, where she successfully applied her method with neurotypical children, but did not return to children with developmental disabilities.

The First Orphanage became the basis and catalyst for a huge social and educational experiment. Dr. Montessori continued to dedicate herself to a deeper understanding of the nature of children’s education for the rest of her life. Now the method of Maria Montessori is incredibly popular all over the world, and in Russia in particular, continuing to gain momentum.

Is it true that Maria Montessori abandoned her son? >>

Maria was born in 1870, at a time when women were just beginning to be allowed into activities other than housekeeping. She was an aristocrat, and at that time they did not, in principle, raise their children, as we now imagine. Children were given to nurses, nannies and tutors, and in early adolescence they were sent to closed educational institutions. It was this approach to raising children that was then the norm. Marriage for Montessori was out of the question: she would have to lose her profession. Married ladies in Italian aristocratic families did not work, did not engage in science. Maria was in a civil marriage with a colleague Giuseppe Montesano.

In 1898, Maria gave birth to a son, Mario, who shared the fate of most of the illegitimate children in Italy at that time: he was placed in a foster family, which thus earned money. Naturally, the fact of his birth was hidden – the news of an illegitimate baby would have ruined the careers of both parents. The consequence of this choice was Mary’s severe depression, after which she became a zealous Catholic. Maria Montessori constantly visited him, and at the age of 15 she revealed the truth to him and took him with her. Since then, her son has been her faithful follower and continuer of her life’s work: after her death, Mario inherited all of his mother’s projects and became one of the main distributors of her method around the world.

Located on Cathcart Street in the Charleswood suburb of Winnipeg, this elementary school was built in 1987 and named after the former Pacific Junction Railway Station, which previously stood at the eastern corner of Elmhurst Road and Wilkes Avenue. There, in the early 1900s, the Canadian Northern Railway line merged with the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway line, forming a single track towards Winnipeg. The first trains arrived around 1905, with the Loudoun School built nearby in 1910, and a post office following two years later. A bronze plaque commemorating the pioneers of the early Pacific Junction was presented to the school by the Charleswood Historical Society.

The 32,000-square-foot Pacific Junction School was built on designs of the Winnipeg architectural firm MCM Architects at a cost of about $2.5 million. It opened to students in September 1987 and was officially opened at a ribbon-cutting event on 30 November 1987 attended by Assiniboine South School Division Board Chairman Ron Statham, Assistant Deputy Minister (Administration and Finance) Tim Sale on behalf of Education Minister Roland Penner, Community Services Minister Maureen Hemphill, Charleswood MLA Jim Ernst, Vice-President of the Charleswood Historical Society Len Van Roon, Principal Paul Gluck, John G. Taubensee of Taubensee Construction, and Glen Cockburn of MCM Architects. The K-6 school features an independent daycare facility and a 750-square-foot community room, cost-shared between the Assiniboine South (now Pembina Trails School Division) and the City’s Parks and Recreation Division.

Day-care centers struggle to rehire, worry many have left the industry

Angela Garcia has about a dozen open positions at her two child-care centers in New Mexico. She’s tried job fairs, sign-on bonuses, retention incentives and working with recruiters to fill the openings, but nothing has worked.

By her count, between five and eight of those jobs have been open for more than six months. One week, Garcia had 12 job interviews scheduled, but only three of the applicants showed up. When she offered positions to two of them, they both turned her down.

“I’ll be completely honest, we are at a loss,” said Garcia. “We are not having any luck finding anyone that wants to return to the workforce at this point. If we don’t begin to get staff into our centers, I’m potentially looking at closing classrooms, which is only going to decrease access to my families, and I’m not really sure how that’s going to help our community recover.”

Garcia’s child-care center isn’t alone in facing this problem. Around the country, day-care centers and summer camps are struggling to operate at full capacity due to widespread worker shortages. The problem has resulted in waiting lists for parents looking for child care. With many companies aiming to bring staff who worked from home during the Covid pandemic back into the office this fall, the problem could worsen because the demand for care will grow. And without child care, other parents may have to step out of the workforce, slowing the economic recovery.

A camp in New Hampshire was forced to close its doors because of staff and food shortages. According to a report by The Boston Globe last week, as training was set to begin, the camp’s owners were still looking to hire as many as 20 counselors after earlier hires disappeared.

Employers in the child-care industry have long struggled to find, hire and retain skilled workers, but this is a problem that was made worse by the pandemic. The industry lost about 350,000 child-care workers — about a third of its workforce — during the health crisis due to layoffs and it hasn’t yet been able to recoup these losses, said Cindy Lehnhoff, director of the National Child Care Association. Even centers that kept their doors open last year have lost staff as many were unwilling or unable to work through the pandemic.

Annual turnover in the industry pre-pandemic has been estimated to be as high as 30%, according to Katie Hamm, associate deputy assistant secretary for early childhood development at the Administration for Children and Families, part of the Department of Health and Human Services. Churn can hurt the quality of care children receive, she said.

‘A quiet crisis’ worsens

“At the height of the pandemic, we lost a lot of early childhood educators. Since President Biden took office in 2020, we’ve added about 65,000 child-care jobs. That puts us at 89% of the pre-pandemic level, but definitely not enough,” Hamm said.

“Across the board, there is difficulty in hiring folks in the early childhood sector,” Hamm said. “We had kind of a quiet crisis before the pandemic in the sector. And now that’s … really coming to the forefront.”

National child-care provider KinderCare has hired 11,500 teachers this year, according to CEO Tom Wyatt. The company has about 3,300 open teaching positions and plans to hire 5,200 more when schools open in the fall.

KinderCare has been able to attract workers because of its culture and the benefits it offers employees, which include health insurance, a 401(k) plan, child-care discounts, and reimbursements for degrees and certifications, Wyatt said. As a national company, KinderCare has the benefit of scale that many smaller providers don’t, he said. But even with these advantages, the company isn’t operating at full capacity.

“We are at least 25% to 30% higher than minimum wage in every market, and really much higher than that in most markets,” Wyatt said. “We raise our teacher salaries every year. … But to think that we would be able to raise tuition rates to a point to get teachers to even a further livable wage is hard for me to see right now.”

The vast majority of child-care providers in the U.S., 93%, are small businesses, and many lack the budget to raise salaries because the businesses are already operating on small profit margins, said Lehnhoff, who has worked in the industry for years.

“If we want to get America back to work, we’re going to have to recognize that child care and early education at a higher quality level is a business that is essential,” said Lehnhoff. “Child care is at a point they can’t charge anymore to middle America, which means they can’t raise their wages.”

She said she has seen many workers struggle to survive on low wages, even if benefits are available to them.

“They could not afford the benefits, even though we had a variety of packages, even wellness, because they needed the money they earned to live on. So benefits is not the biggest concern in the industry. It’s just there’s not a living wage,” said Lehnhoff.

Experts and employers agree that the industry’s staffing crisis is driven by poor compensation for its workers. According to Hamm, the national average wage is $12 an hour.

Parents wait for classrooms to open

Salaries at Garcia’s center range from $10.50 per hour up to $25 per hour depending on experience and if the worker has a college degree. Her centers stayed open during the pandemic and none of her workers were laid off. However, 12 staffers quit within the first three months of the crisis. Garcia reached out to those workers whenever the centers had more demand, but they either did not respond or said they didn’t want to work through the pandemic.

At full capacity, Garcia needs 60 to 70 employees to care for around 300 children. Now she only has 40 workers and is forced to leave a classroom closed since she can’t staff it.

In order to service all the families on her waitlist, Garcia needs to hire 12 workers as soon as possible. But 20 hires, who fall under every level of qualification, would get her business open at full capacity, offering care seven days a week.

High turnover was not a problem for Garcia before the pandemic because of the 20-year relationship she had built with the staff at one of her centers. This was not the case at her second location, which she opened in October 2019, because she was still building a team when the pandemic hit. Now, Garcia is having a hard time at both locations.

Garcia, who is the president of a child-care association in New Mexico, said she is hearing from providers all over the state who are having similar employment issues, especially those in rural areas. Around 200 centers, which represented 20% of those in the state, closed in the last year, Garcia said. About 900 people are claiming unemployment in the early childhood education industry in the state, she said.

“It is impossible to provide quality care, safe programs, without a full staff, and we are the key to recovery. Our economy does not survive if families can’t go back to work, and families can’t go back to work if they don’t have access,” Garcia said. “We can’t provide access if we don’t have a full staff.”

To Garcia, the pandemic has caused an employment crisis in the child-care industry. She said she understands the fears people have about the risks of working through the pandemic.

Last year, KinderCare put around 31,000 employees, most of whom were teachers, on furlough after temporarily closing the majority of its centers except those that serviced essential workers, Wyatt said. He estimates the company lost 20% to 30% of those teachers.

“That can be for many reasons, they could be that they chose to go into another field, it could be that they have preexisting conditions, and they don’t want to come back to the classroom,” Wyatt said. “I think it’s more reluctance to come back to a classroom, a closed environment.”

KinderCare said it has been especially hard to find highly skilled workers. Currently, 5% to 8% of its classrooms are closed due to a lack of teachers.

“The demand for teachers is much higher than the number of teachers that are actually applying for work,” Wyatt said. “We have had challenges prior to Covid and we will continue to have challenges with turnover and the need for more teachers.”

Since candidates with the right skills and experience are scarce, KinderCare has been hiring workers with various levels of experience and training them.

Bright Horizons, which also owns and manages centers around the country, has been struggling to hire and hold on to staff as well. Demand for its services has been rising as Bright Horizon’s corporate clients sweeten child-care benefits for their workers.

“We are really doing everything we can to attract employees,” said Maribeth Bearfield, chief human resources officer at Bright Horizons.

Delta variant fans safety fears

While wages and training help, workers also need to feel safe. Industry insiders said health precautions are being taken to protect workers from the virus, but many remain concerned it will spread in classrooms filled with children not yet eligible for vaccines. The delta variant, and reports of breakthrough infections, have fanned these fears. It also could pose a higher risk for vulnerable people or those who care for high-risk individuals.

Despite a lot being done to provide aid to the sector, Hamm said there is still systemic concerns that need to be addressed including lack of reliable wages and benefits to create working conditions that compare with other industries that require the same amount of training.

“We don’t necessarily have the working conditions that a lot of workers are looking for,” Hamm said. “We’re going to need major reform to make this better. The conditions that existed before the pandemic in the workforce have not been addressed.”

Supporting the industry

Industry insiders and the Biden administration have said the government needs to play a bigger role when it comes to child care, which has gotten expensive for parents and providers alike. Parents cannot afford the tuition that would make a worker’s wages and benefits attractive enough.

The Biden administration has said that employment issues and lack of access to child care stem from years of underinvestment, which the president plans to reverse with $450 billion in proposed spending as part of his American Families Plan. Of that, $225 billion will be dedicated to child-care cost subsidies. The plan aims to make sure families are paying no more than 7% of their income for child-care costs while workers get payed a minimum wage of $15 per hour.

Last week, the Biden administration unveiled a separate 10-year, $755 billion investment plan that includes funding that would expand child care for children up to 5 years old and improve pay and prospects for people who work in the caregiving industry, which includes child and elder care.

“You don’t want to increase costs for parents and you don’t want to undercut wages for providers, so that means you really need robust public funding to make sure you can do both of those things,” Hamm said.

The American Rescue Plan, which became law in March, included $39 billion for child care — the largest ever investments made in the sector, according to Hamm. People in the industry say that even though many centers closed, others were able to keep their doors open largely due to government aid.

Garcia said government aid is the reason why her business survived, but she worries about the future.

“Right now, I’m very thankful to say that I’m not on the brink of closure in the sense of finances. But what I do worry about is that as I began to possibly close classrooms, I will no longer be able to support the payroll that I currently have,” Garcia said.

Payroll for the issuance of wages in the form No. T-53

Payroll for the issuance of wages – you can download it on our website – an important accounting document used within the company. Our material will help to study the procedure for filling it out and learn about the requirements.

Unified form or arbitrary

Payroll is one of the accounting documents used within the company that confirm the procedure associated with the issuance of cash from the cash desk.

Given the right of companies to independently develop primary accounting documents, the question arises: is it possible to invent, approve and apply the payroll on our own, or will we have to be content with the unified T-53 form that is familiar to everyone?

The answer to this question is contained in the information of the Ministry of Finance dated 04. 12.2012 No. ПЗ-10/2012, from which it is clear that since 2013 it is not necessary to apply unified forms of documents.

However, this does not apply to all primary organizations – the forms established by the authorized bodies on the basis of federal laws remained mandatory. Payroll can be classified as such papers.

IMPORTANT! The use of the payroll is regulated by the Instruction of the Central Bank dated March 11, 2014 No. 3210-U on the conduct of cash transactions.

In order not to violate the procedure for conducting cash transactions, you should use payroll 0301011 (paragraph 2, clause 6 of Instruction No. 3210-U). Payroll index corresponding to OKUD 0301011: T-53. This form is approved as unified by the Decree of the State Statistics Committee of Russia dated 01/05/2004 No. 1.

You can find a step-by-step algorithm for issuing salaries from the cash desk in ConsultantPlus. Get a trial access to the system for free and go to the Ready solution.

You can download the payroll form in the T-53 form on our website:

Download the T-53 form

funds to the person entitled to it. Registration of this procedure can be carried out with the help of other documents – they are provided for by the same Instruction No. 3210-U.

For example, you can pay a salary to one person using an account cash warrant (form No. KO-2), and arrange a group payment using a payroll statement (form T-49).

The materials of our website will help to document the issuance of wages:

  • “Unified form No. T-49 – form and sample” ;
  • “Unified Form No. KO-2 – Cash Debit Order” .

Mandatory sections of the payroll sheet

The payroll form begins with the name of the company and its structural unit.

Separately, in the T-53 form, a field is filled in to reflect the corresponding account – when paying salaries, account 70 “Settlements with personnel for wages” is indicated.

Then the information is entered into the cells according to the timing of the payment of money. Then the total amount issued according to the statement is filled in (in numbers and in words).

IMPORTANT! The duration of the time period during which it is permissible to issue salaries from the cash desk and make other payments is established by paragraph 6.5 of Directive No. 3210-U and is 5 working days (including the day the cash is received from the bank).

This information is followed by the signatures of the responsible persons of the company: the head and the chief accountant.

You must also indicate the number of the payroll and the date it was compiled.

Payrolls for the issuance of wages (a form for which you can download on our website) contain one more additional field – to reflect the billing period. This information is important for the correct registration of the payroll transaction in accounting registers.

In addition to the signatures of the director and the chief accountant, the payroll contains the signatures of several more responsible persons: the accountant who checked the execution of payments; the specialist who carried out the payroll operation (cashier or other authorized person). The indicated signatures with full name decoding complete the payroll.

We will tell you about filling in the tabular part of the payroll in the next section.

Important! Hint from ConsultantPlus
You can correct your payroll if you find an error. It can be fixed…
See K+ for more details, having received a free trial access.

Accruals payable: filling out the tabular part of the statement

Filling in the tabular part of the T-53 form is based on the payroll sheet. Accruals are made by the company’s specialists on the basis of salaries, tariffs, piece rates – depending on the forms of remuneration used in the company.

Before entering information about earned funds in the tabular part of the payroll, the necessary deductions (alimony, compensation for damage, etc.) are made from the accrued amounts, personal income tax is deducted. The result of the calculations is entered in column 4 of the payroll.

Each amount of the calculated salary is entered in a separate line of the tabular part of the payroll sheet (you can download the form on our website).

To personify the accrued amounts in the statement, columns 2–3 are intended, which contain information about the payroll number and full name of the recipient.

Column 5 of the payroll table is intended to confirm the fact that funds have been issued from the cash desk or to mark the deposit of unpaid amounts. Note that from November 30, 2020, the requirement to put a note on the payroll about the deposit of wages not received by employees has been canceled.

Column 6 “Note” deserves special attention. In a normal situation, when employees of the company personally receive money, it is not filled out. Information appears in it, for example, when issuing salaries by proxy. In this case, in the indicated line, the cashier makes an entry “by proxy”, and the power of attorney itself is attached to the payroll (clause 6.1 of Directive No. 3210-U).

Where to see a sample payroll

You can download a sample payroll from our website:

Summary

Payrolls include many mandatory fields: payments of funds up to a detailed indication of the amounts of salaries paid.

Such a statement is signed by several people: the head of the company, the responsible person who made the payment, the chief accountant and the accountant who performs control functions.

Do I need a payroll when issuing salaries

The following documents and legal acts were used to answer the question:

  • Constitution of the Russian Federation.
  • Labor Code of the Russian Federation.
  • Federal Law No. 402-FZ dated 06.12.2011 “On Accounting”.
  • Federal Law No. 209-FZ dated July 24, 2007 “On the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation”.
  • Decree of the State Statistics Committee of Russia dated 05.01.2004 No. 1 “On the use of unified forms of primary accounting documentation for accounting for labor and its payment.”
  • “Regulations on the procedure for conducting cash transactions with banknotes and coins of the Bank of Russia on the territory of the Russian Federation”, approved by the Bank of Russia on October 12, 2011 No. 373-P.
  • Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation No. 2 dated March 17, 2004 “On the application by the courts of the Russian Federation of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation”.
  • Ruling of the Leningrad Regional Court dated February 8, 2012 No. 33-575/2012.
  • Based on the information provided by you, we consider it necessary to report the following.

    Rationale.

    According to Art. 56 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the employer undertakes to provide the employee with work according to the stipulated labor function, ensure the working conditions provided for by labor legislation, pay the employee wages in a timely manner and in full, and the employee undertakes to personally perform the labor function defined by this agreement and comply with the internal labor regulations. In addition, the right to remuneration for work without any discrimination and not lower than the minimum wage established by federal law is guaranteed by the Constitution of the Russian Federation (Part 3, Article 37 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation).

    Thus, the payment of wages to an employee is one of the main obligations of the employer and, accordingly, the procedure for paying wages must be formalized with strictly defined documents.

    In addition, for the purposes of taxation, any costs must comply with the requirements of tax legislation, including the company that pays wages to employees must have primary supporting documents for labor accounting and payment of wages. These include an order (instruction) on hiring an employee (form No. T-1), an employee’s personal card (form No. T-2), a personal account (form No. T-54), a payroll sheet (form No. T-51 ) and payroll (form No. T-53) (Resolution of the State Statistics Committee of Russia dated January 5, 2004 No. 1 “On the use of unified forms of primary accounting documentation for accounting for labor and its payment”). These documents reflect the admission of an employee to work in an organization, the accrual and payment of wages to him and comply with the general requirements set forth in the Federal Law of December 6, 2011 No. 402-FZ “On Accounting”.

    From the foregoing, it follows that the approved primary accounting documents at the enterprise that process the issuance of wages are the payroll or payroll, as well as the payroll. The same position is confirmed by the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated March 17, 2004 No. 2 in its Resolution “On the application by the courts of the Russian Federation of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation”, which states that accrued wages are those that are reflected by the employer in the payroll or settlement statements.

    If there are no such documents in the organization, it is difficult to prove the fact of payment of wages to employees.

    Pay slips, as primary accounting documents, containing the signatures of employees who have received wages, are attached to cash documents – expense orders as supporting documents. This requirement is established by the Regulations on the procedure for conducting cash transactions with banknotes and coins of the Bank of Russia on the territory of the Russian Federation. In this regard, an enterprise that calculates and pays wages to employees must have both payroll statements and expense orders.

    In relation to the issue raised by the author, it can be said that if there are a small number of employees in the state (1-2 people), the execution of a payroll or payroll statement is allowed, but not mandatory. Usually, the registration of the issuance of wages for such a small number of employees is carried out according to cash receipts. As for the staffing of five people, it can be recommended to draw up, in addition to the expenditure order, a payroll sheet, although there is no specific requirement for the number of employees in the legislation in this regard. With regard to the number of employees, it can be noted that from the point of view of the law, an enterprise with a staff of 5 people is classified as a micro-enterprise (Federal Law of July 24, 2007 No. 209-FZ “On the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation”).

    The attention of the author of the question should be drawn to the fact that the absence of payrolls is fraught with another possible “unpleasant” consequence for the employer. Thus, an employee dismissed from an enterprise where payroll was not documented by payroll can claim with impunity that he was not paid any wages at all. At the same time, the transfer by the employer of taxes on personal income in full in the absence of primary accounting documents has no legal significance. Of course, the employer has the right to prove the fact of payment of wages in other ways, but, unfortunately, in such cases, the courts often take the side of the employee and satisfy the demands for the recovery of wage arrears (Determination of the Leningrad Regional Court dated 08. 02.2012 No. 33-575 / 2012).

    The lack of a unified approach to resolving this issue may also, finally, result in liability in accordance with the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation under Art. 5.27 – violation of labor legislation and labor protection (penalties).

    Based on the foregoing, in order to avoid possible adverse consequences, both on the part of regulatory authorities and dissatisfied employees, we recommend that the author of the question still draw up payroll statements when calculating and paying wages.

    Resume.

    Registration of the accrual and payment of wages is one of the main obligations of the employer in accordance with applicable law and, accordingly, is drawn up by strictly defined documents. The established primary accounting documents at the enterprise that process the accrual and payment of wages are the payroll or payroll, as well as the payroll. At the same time, it is also necessary to draw up cash documents when calculating wages – an enterprise that calculates and pays wages to employees must have not only payroll statements, but also expense orders. If there are no such documents in the organization, it is difficult to prove the fact of issuing wages to employees.

    The number of employees at the enterprise, of course, plays a role in deciding whether it is necessary to draw up a payroll. If, for example, 1-2 people work in an organization, as practice shows, the legislation does not directly prohibit issuing only an expense order. But, because there is no clear norm in this relationship regarding the number of employees, if the enterprise employs 5 or more people, we still recommend that you draw up the entire set of primary accounting documents provided for by the Decree of the State Statistics Committee of Russia. Otherwise, the employer’s organization may be subject to both an administrative fine and a possible legal claim on the employee’s claim for the recovery of wage arrears in the absence of primary accounting documents.

    Payroll – Kontur.Accounting

    To pay employees from the cash desk, you need to issue a payroll in the T-53 form or a settlement and payment in the T-49 form. We will figure out when the payroll needs to be drawn up, how to fill it out and whether adjustments can be made.

    What is payroll

    Payroll is a document on the basis of which the cashier issues wages, bonuses, material assistance and other money to the employees listed in it. This applies only to cash payments: for employees receiving wages on cards, statements are not needed (Instructions on the use of PUD forms for accounting for labor and its payment, approved by Decree of the State Statistics Committee of the Russian Federation of 01/05/2004 No. 1).

    Important! If money is issued to one employee, you can only draw up an expense cash order (hereinafter referred to as RKO) without a statement. This is relevant when the terms for receiving income are different, for example, an employee quits, goes on vacation, or takes a deposited salary.

    How to draw up a statement

    The payroll must be prepared by the accounting department, which preliminarily calculates the amount of remuneration for each employee. This duty can be entrusted to another structural unit at the discretion of the head.

    The payroll is compiled according to one of the forms:

    • No. T-49 “Settlement and payroll”;
    • No. T-53 “Payroll”.

    Standard forms were approved by the Decree of the State Statistics Committee of 01/05/2004 No. 1. Form No. T-49 differs in that it contains a detailed calculation of the amount to be issued: the employee’s wage rate, the number of days or hours worked, accruals by type, the amount of deductions and debts . The payroll indicates only the amount that should be given to the employee.

    Statement No. T-53

    The procedure for filling out the payroll is given in the Instructions. It is compiled in a single copy, but in addition to it, payroll sheets are required in the form No. T-51, in which the salary will be calculated.

    Statement No. T-53 consists of a title page, a section with signatures and a tabular part.

    On the title page, indicate the name of the organization, the name of the structural unit that compiled the document. Write down the period for issuance – according to the standards, it does not exceed five business days. Then indicate the total amount to be paid and affix the signatures of the head and chief accountant.

    In the tabular section, you need to list all employees who should receive money according to the statement. Indicate the personnel number, full name and the amount due. In column 5, each employee must sign opposite his last name when he collects the money.

    If the employee does not come for the money on time, the cashier must independently put the inscription “deposited” in column 5.

    In the “Note” column, you can specify passport data or other information by which the cashier identified the employee. This is especially important in large companies where some colleagues do not know each other.

    At the end, you must specify the total amount issued according to the statement and the deposited part. Additionally, the number and date of cash settlement for issuing money from the cash desk are indicated.

    The closed statement is registered in the journal in the form No. T-53a.

    Statement No. T-49

    The rules for filling out the payroll are given in the same Instructions. It is compiled in one copy and, unlike statement No. T-53, is not supplemented by a pay slip, since it initially contains information on the calculation of the amount to be issued.

    The title page is filled out in the same way as the T-53 form, but the tabular part is much more voluminous. Consider filling it out using the example of April 2022 for two employees.

    In column 4, indicate the tariff rate or salary of the employee. In columns 5-7 we indicate the number of days worked. In April, there were 21 of them, but senior engineer Anisimov worked 18 days, and technologist Petrov only 10, as he was on vacation. Then, in column 8, you should indicate the salary calculated in proportion to the hours worked. If employees received bonuses or other payments, they are indicated in columns 9-13. In our case, both employees received bonuses, and technologist Petrov also received vacation pay. The total amount of income is indicated in column 14.

    In columns 15-18 indicate deductions from wages and offset amounts. This is mainly personal income tax and an advance payment for the first half of the month, as well as vacation pay. In column 21, indicate the amount to be paid. Upon receipt, each employee must sign. The cashier can also deposit undisbursed amounts if they do not appear on time.

    On the last page, the total amount of the statement and the cash register details for the payment of salaries should be indicated.

    How long is the payroll

    The deadline for issuing money from the cash desk must be indicated on the title page of the payroll. The maximum period is five working days from the date of receipt of cash from the bank.

    The manager can set any term in the organization within the maximum. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the date of payment of wages, which is indicated in the internal labor regulations, labor or collective agreement. For example, if the salary is usually issued on the 10th, then the statement will need to be closed on the 15th.

    Since the salary is issued at least twice a month, the payroll must also be drawn up regularly. This is due to the fact that the advance payment is not fixed – it must also be calculated taking into account the hours worked.

    Payroll storage period

    Pay slips need to be stored for a very long time if your organization does not maintain personal accounts. In this case, the mandatory period is 50 years. It cannot be shortened.

    If there are personal accounts, the retention period is reduced to six years after the end of the year in which they were closed.

    How to correct errors in payroll

    An error in the payroll can be corrected. To do this, incorrect information is crossed out and the correct information is indicated. The correction must be certified by the signatures with the transcript of the cashier, accountant and manager. Additionally, you need to specify the date the edit was made.

    What should the cashier do when paying wages according to statement

    Before issuing money according to the statement, the cashier is obliged to check it:

    • whether it has the signatures of the chief accountant and the head;
    • whether the signatures match the samples;
    • whether the amount in words matches the amount in figures;
    • whether the total amount on the statement coincides with the amount of payments for employees.

    The cashier prepares money for withdrawal in advance, checks and counts all banknotes. When issuing, it is recommended to do this again. When an employee comes to collect his salary, the cashier gives him a statement in which he must sign opposite his last name.

    If the employee did not come for the money within the time specified in the statement, the cashier puts the “Deposited” mark opposite his name.

    For the entire amount actually issued according to the statement, cash settlement is compiled. This must be done on the closing day of the statement, that is, on the last day when employees could come for a salary. In the “Debit” section, the account “70” is indicated, in the “Credit” section – “50-1”. The number and date of the payroll is written in the “Appendix” line.

    The cash register number is indicated on the last page of the statement, then on its basis the cashier makes an entry in the cash book.

    Calculate the salary of employees, generate statements, cash settlements and payment orders in Kontur.Accounting. It will eliminate the need to fill out paper forms and collect information from various sources – everything will be in one place. The system will remind you when it’s time to pay your earnings and help you calculate taxes and contributions. All new users get 14 days of work in the service as a gift.

    Learning Garden

    The Learning Garden provides students with many hands-on activities in an outdoor classroom environment. Activities include growing vegetables, exploring insects and nature, and harvesting foods that are eaten during snack time.

    At CNS, we believe it is important for children to breath in the fresh air, see the beauty of our four seasons, and get their hands a little dirty!

    Lending Library

    Whether they are being read to by their teachers or exploring pages on their own, Carol Nursery School students are exposed to a wide array of literature each and every day.

    Twice a month, students have access to hundreds of books in our expansive Lending Library. We welcome a parent volunteer who comes to read to the class and then helps the children check out a book of their choosing to take home. This encourages reading away from the classroom as well as responsibility for returning library materials on time.

    Healthy Routines

    We believe it is important to continue to foster the healthy routines that many of our students first learn at home. Whether it’s proper hand-washing, exercise out on the playground and in our muscle room, or yoga practice, we make these healthy choices fun and easy to follow.

    We also provide a nutritious snack during each class session, offering fresh fruits and vegetables, cheese and crackers. All of our prepared snacks are all-natural and made from scratch.

    Need some ideas for healthy snacks at home? Check out our parent recipe cards for easy-to-follow treats.

    CNS has a “nut-free policy” to protect the increasing number of children who have nut allergies.

    Community Involvement

    We teach our students the value of giving back to the community in several ways at Carol Nursery School.

    Each fall, CNS children and their families participate in the Cozy Clothing Line, bringing in brand new mittens, hats, and scarves for donation to children in need in the surrounding community.

    In March, the children bring in coins to add to the Penny Harvest jars in each classroom. The money collected is given to Harvest for Hunger.

    Carol Nursery School is nestled on a large green space in the midst of a quiet Shaker neighborhood. This space provides an extension to classroom learning that allows children opportunities to explore the natural world around them while creating a sense of curiosity and wonder. The expansive campus has two large playgrounds, a Nature Nook , tennis court, baseball field and a Learning Garden.

    The Best Preschools Near By

    Skip to Content

    Looking for the Top Recommended Preschools near by around Plano, McKinney, Allen, Frisco and North Dallas?

    Do you have preschool aged kids or are you going to soon? Plano and the surrounding areas have so many top-notch preschools.

    There is no “one best” Preschool in Plano — or anywhere for that matter. Not every school is right for every child. That is why it is important for parents to look around to find what works for your child — and what works for your family. This guide covers Preschools listed in Allen, Dallas, Frisco, McKinney, Plano and surrounding cities.

    We know that this is a considered and well researched choice that you make when you place your child in the hands of carers, teachers and staff at a Preschool.

    This Guide features schools that:

    Cater to children from 6 weeks and generally through ages 2-5. Some also offer Private Kindergarten as an option. Many (but not all) require children to be potty-trained upon admission. All preschools listed are privately owned which means you do not have to live in the city where they are located for your child to attend.

    We try and list as many Preschools as possible and some have been featured highly because they are Recommended by Moms in our Community of Plano Moms and many have requested to be sponsors of the guide. We’ve gathered some input from Moms around town and made a list of some of the most recommended learning centers to send your kids to in Plano.

    You may also be interested in Mother’s Day Out programs which provide more part-time hours for flexibility.

    Hours

    Many of the options are in session a few hours per day or full working days and many operate on school-year calendars – although some are year-round. The School Year options do offer Summer Camp options for older siblings too. There are some gray areas; some schools may offer optional extended care options and some offer extended calendar years.

    Fees

    Fees vary according to the facilities, programs and extras that are offered. For instance, some Preschools have a Chef offering hot meals every day and include Wipes, Snacks, Drinks and other daily extras.

    If these options don’t work for your needs, you might also consider some Mother’s Day Out options

At Paradise Place, we have invested in fine tuning the formula for success as a preschool and early childhood education provider. Paradise Place itself was established over 25 years ago. We have longevity in our staff and we combine that with programs that have stood the test of time.

    We offer spacious and separate classrooms and have a new state-of-the-art playground. All of our classrooms are separated by age and developmental stages. This allows us to focus on the needs of a particular age group and helps your child bond with their teacher and becomes more comfortable within their space and routine. Our playground was installed in 2014 and offers your child plenty of room to run and play.
    Our Curriculum and learning activities are developed for each child. However, we primarily use creative curriculum in conjunction with the Reggio Emilia inspired approach, that is just a base for the really important stuff: Personalized curriculum for each child enrolled based off their current level of development. Your child will get his or her very own learning plan to help them become ready for elementary school. Kindergarten readiness is very important to us and we utilize an assessment program that goes with them from Paradise Place to their kindergarten teachers.

    Overview of Family Child Care

    Family Child Care, sometimes referred to as “home daycare”, is child care provided in someone’s home where the caretaker is not related to the children.  

    Family Child Care programs are small in size and have no more than 10 children.     

    • A Family Child Care provider can care for up to 8 children in their home by themselves depending on the ages of the children.  
    • If a Family Child Care provider works with an EEC-approved assistant, they can care for up to 10 children in their home.

    Overview of Group and School Age Child Care

    Group and School Age Child Care programs provide early education and care for young children in a non-residential setting such as a school or community center.

    These programs include several types of early education and care such as:

    • Out-of-school time programs that operate before/after school or during the summer
    • Center-based care for infants, toddlers, preschool, or Kindergarten age children
    • Early Head Start and Head Start programs

    Choosing a licensed child care program

    Choosing a program for your infant, preschooler, or school age child is a very personal choice for each family. The best program is the one that matches your own child’s temperament, likes and dislikes, health, interests, and behavior. A program should also be compatible with your family’s philosophies, and schedule, and should provide a safe environment that is fun, educational, and nurturing.

    View EEC’s “Choosing Child Care” guide for tips on selecting a licensed child care provider for your child.

    Iosif Kobzon would have turned 85 years old

    “Snow, snow… Here for many days a blizzard sings outside the windows.” Do you know who sang this song about polar explorers? The answer is the one who sang about everything. People’s Artist of the Soviet Union Iosif Kobzon would have turned 85 today, says MIR 24 correspondent Maxim Krasotkin.

    It was the voice of the era. Although the songs changed, but performed by Joseph Kobzon, they were always on time. Thaw of the 1960s, romance. 1970s – Komsomol construction sites, virgin lands, BAM. Kobzon’s songs inspire accomplishments. Iosif Kobzon knew by heart more than two thousand songs, and his longest concert was 11 hours long. There is even an epigram: “How not to stop a running bison, so not to stop a singing Kobzon.” It is attributed to Valentin Gaft.

    “Kobzon called him somehow. And he says: “Valya, you shouldn’t do this to me. I can do it differently.” Valya got scared, this is not my epigram. I then tried to find out whose epigram. But I think that Valya wrote,” said Nikas Safronov, People’s Artist of the Russian Federation.

    He was born near Donetsk, and how many boys could have been a miner. He even received a diploma as an exploration driller. Talent was seen in the army, sent to serve in the Song and Dance Ensemble of the Transcaucasian District. Then Moscow and Gnesinka.

    The energy of such a march delighted not only the supporters of communism. This song is a real anthem of the Soviet empire. Her rhythm and energy were admired even by those who did not share the views of the majority. Maybe Kobzon’s voice is the reason.

    “There was prestige and respect for artists. Still, there were not as many of them as there are now. Artists of this importance were. All with titles were great,” said Alizhan Tokhtakhunov, a friend of Joseph Kobzon.

    Entrepreneur Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov met Kobzon in Sochi. First, at a concert – a bouquet of flowers, then on the beach – he treated the artist to beer and tapaka chicken.

    “He was going somewhere, I have friends there. They asked me: “Joseph Davydych is coming to us, can we treat him?” I approached: “Joseph Davydych, there are familiar guys, athletes, or someone else, they want to treat you, respect you.” He asked: “Can I?” If I gave consent, I gave it – somehow like this, ”said a friend of the singer.

    Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov is perhaps the most famous Soviet gambler. He lived for this and came to the attention of the police, he was convicted under Article 209. And here Kobzon came to the rescue.

    “I was imprisoned for parasitism, and he went to the minister and asked for me. Then he went to where I was sitting, to the zone. He even gave a concert so that I could be released ahead of schedule. And I was released ahead of schedule,” Tokhtakhunov said.

    Help – in the character of Joseph Davidovich. A colleague-artist does not have enough pension – this is for him. The queue for an apartment is not moving forward or the child is not taken to kindergarten – Kobzon will help.

    “Igor Leonidovich Kirillov, we read with him, hosted the program guide, Russia was already there. He says to me: “Anna Nikolaevna, I’ll ask you, I’m handing you an envelope, call the son of Anna Nikolaevna Shilova, she was sick then, one of the first announcers, meet with Alexei and hand over the envelope. ” I say: “What kind of envelope?” He says: “This is money for her from Joseph Kobzon,” recalls Anna Shatilova, an announcer of the Central Television of the USSR.

    He was also a State Duma deputy. In my office I received everyone who came with a problem. Requests were written down in a notebook. One of them is now kept at the Institute of Theatrical Art in Moscow. In the audience where the people’s artist taught. Now this institute bears the name of the singer. Its rector met Iosif Kobzon at a concert in Kabul at the height of the Afghan war.

    “I performed in a soldier’s brigade and he sang. Naturally, I wanted to take a picture with him. He called me later, I was a soloist, at a table with colonels, with officers. Since then, since 1988, we have known each other,” said the rector of the Institute of Theater Arts. I.D. Kobzon Dmitry Tomilin.

    Kobzon has always been where support is needed. In the fall of 1993, at the time of the confrontation between Yeltsin and Khasbulatov, he went to the White House to persuade the rebellious deputies to negotiate with the president. At 1998th miners’ strike on the Humpback Bridge. Kobzon, as a native of the coal region, finds a common language with the miners and seasons all this with a song.

    October 2002, hostage-taking at Dubrovka. Terrorists broke into the recreation center where the musical was playing. Iosif Kobzon again went to negotiations. He managed to bring out five spectators of Nord-Ost.

    When the Chernobyl disaster happened, Kobzon went to the danger zone to support the liquidators. Perhaps this was the cause of his serious illness.

    “I think if you told Kobzon that this and that would happen, would he go or not? I am sure that even if we explained or tripled this danger, he would still go, ”said Lev Ashrafyan, an oncologist surgeon, a friend of Iosif Kobzon.

    In the early 2000s, Iosif Kobzon was diagnosed with cancer. The disease had already progressed. But thanks to the doctors, he was able to live with him for more than 10 years. Foreign experts did not believe their Russian colleagues: they do not live with such a disease for so long.

    “Chemotherapy is a rather difficult treatment. But he, getting up after chemotherapy, walked and sang in an hour or two. He had early gigs. Chemotherapy ends at one and a half to two, and he is already on stage at four,” said Ashrafyan.

    For many years on the stage, he failed, as they say, to bronze, and in bronze he was cast only now. In Moscow, a monument to the artist was opened opposite the house where he lived and next to the park where Kobzon gave his first solo concerts.

    He sang about everything: Iosif Kobzon would have turned 85 years old

    15 hours ago

    “Snow, snow … Here for many days a blizzard sings outside the windows. ” Do you know who sang this song about polar explorers? The answer is the one who sang about everything. People’s Artist of the Soviet Union Iosif Kobzon would have turned 85 today, says MIR 24 correspondent Maxim Krasotkin.

    It was the voice of the era. Although the songs changed, but performed by Joseph Kobzon, they were always on time. Thaw of the 1960s, romance. 1970s – Komsomol construction sites, virgin lands, BAM. Kobzon’s songs inspire accomplishments. Iosif Kobzon knew by heart more than two thousand songs, and his longest concert was 11 hours long. There is even an epigram: “How not to stop a running bison, so not to stop a singing Kobzon.” It is attributed to Valentin Gaft.

    Video of the day

    “Kobzon called him somehow. And he says: “Valya, you shouldn’t do this to me. I can do it differently.” Valya got scared, this is not my epigram. I then tried to find out whose epigram. But I think that Valya wrote,” said Nikas Safronov, People’s Artist of the Russian Federation.

    He was born near Donetsk, and like many boys could be a miner. He even received a diploma as an exploration driller. Talent was seen in the army, sent to serve in the Song and Dance Ensemble of the Transcaucasian District. Then Moscow and Gnesinka.

    The energy of such a march delighted not only the supporters of communism. This song is a real anthem of the Soviet empire. Her rhythm and energy were admired even by those who did not share the views of the majority. Maybe Kobzon’s voice is the reason.

    “There was prestige and respect for artists. Still, there were not as many of them as there are now. Artists of this importance were. All with titles were great,” said Alizhan Tokhtakhunov, a friend of Joseph Kobzon.

    Entrepreneur Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov met Kobzon in Sochi. First, at a concert – a bouquet of flowers, then on the beach – he treated the artist to beer and tapaka chicken.

    “He was going somewhere, I have friends there. They asked me: “Joseph Davydych is coming to us, can we treat him?” I approached: “Joseph Davydych, there are familiar guys, athletes, or someone else, they want to treat you, respect you.” He asked: “Can I?” If I gave consent, I gave it – somehow like this, ”said a friend of the singer.

    Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov is perhaps the most famous Soviet gambler. He lived for this and came to the attention of the police, he was convicted under Article 209. And here Kobzon came to the rescue.

    “I was imprisoned for parasitism, and he went to the minister and asked for me. Then he went to where I was sitting, to the zone. He even gave a concert so that I could be released ahead of schedule. And I was released ahead of schedule,” Tokhtakhunov said.

    Help is in the nature of Joseph Davidovich. A colleague-artist does not have enough pension – this is for him. The queue for an apartment is not moving forward or the child is not taken to kindergarten – Kobzon will help.

    “Igor Leonidovich Kirillov, we read with him, hosted a program guide, Russia was already there. He says to me: “Anna Nikolaevna, I’ll ask you, I’m handing you an envelope, call the son of Anna Nikolaevna Shilova, she was sick then, one of the first announcers, meet with Alexei and hand over the envelope.” I say: “What kind of envelope?” He says: “This is money for her from Joseph Kobzon,” recalls Anna Shatilova, an announcer of the Central Television of the USSR.

    I am not working as not the first generation of first graders

    I work been in school for 20 years. In my experience, children in first grade regularly face the same problems.

    For example, they do not know how to tie shoelaces, have difficulty communicating with peers, and have poor knowledge of geometric shapes. Such trifles prevent the child from adapting to a new environment.

    I will tell you what difficulties first graders face and how they can be avoided if the child improves the necessary skills in advance.

    How to Raise Kids Without Going Broke

    The best resources on how to cope with parenthood and get the most out of the government are in your inbox every Tuesday. Free

    Issue #1

    Little is known about their family

    What can go wrong. In accordance with the federal state standards of preschool education, the “ideal” first grader already has basic knowledge about himself and the world around him.

    For example, he knows his first name, last name and patronymic, age, date of birth. He can list the names of parents and other family members, and also tell about their places of work and name the country and city where he lives.

    But at school, I come across the fact that some children do not know their home address and cannot name their parents by their first and middle names: in response to the question “what is the name of dad”, they say “Uncle Vanya”. The full names of other relatives are also rarely remembered.

    /happy-kid/

    “Evaluate not a child, but an act”: 8 questions for a child psychotherapist gets to know the children, and the children get to know each other.

    I also noticed that every year fewer children can tell about the profession of parents. This can prevent the child from understanding the teacher, because he sometimes explains new material using the example of professions: not just “5 – 3 = 2”, but “one tailor made three patterns, and the other made five, how many more patterns did the second tailor make?” .

    Development for a lesson by one of the teachers at my school: learning some topics goes through a story about a particular profession. In this case, this is a teacher, but it can be any other

    How to fix this. A week or two before the school year, you can learn the names of parents and relatives. The game “Family Album” is suitable for remembering names: in it you need to take a photo of a relative, write the name of this person next to it and say – “grandmother Antonina Semyonovna”.

    It won’t take long to introduce children to the profession of their parents. In my opinion, it is good practice to take the child to work for the day if safety permits. This will help to consolidate the name of the profession and the actions associated with it – “mom is a cook, she cooks food” – and just broaden your horizons.

    Issue #2

    They don’t know how to serve themselves

    What can go wrong. Every year more and more children do not know how to fasten locks and buttons on their clothes, do not know the rules of behavior at the table and hold a spoon incorrectly.

    Sometimes children don’t know how to change and don’t know where their personal belongings are. For example, when going home, they look for a parent in the crowd to collect a briefcase. And preparing for physical education becomes a whole adventure: the child does not know where he has clothes for the lesson, and there is a queue for the teacher to tie his shoelaces.

    /guide/detskaya-odezhda/

    How to choose clothes for your child

    Most boys don’t know how to fasten their trousers, and this is a problem not only for physical education, but also for going to the toilet. Many schools even invite parents to help children change their clothes.

    At first glance, these are trifles, but often the inability to perform such actions ends in psychological trauma. For example, when a child does not have time to undress for the toilet or becomes the object of ridicule because he does not know how to hold a spoon or constantly stains his face with food and does not wipe it.

    Before school, parents often buy practical clothes for their children, such as Velcro shoes. Because of this, the child may not have time to learn how to tie their shoelaces by the first class. Source: wildberries.ru

    How to fix it. Teach your child how to fasten trousers and a belt, small buttons on a shirt, tie shoelaces – then he will be able to change clothes for physical education class and get ready for home on his own. The “repeat after me” method is suitable here: ideally, actions should be worked out on things in which the child will go to school.

    For the first time, you can sew tags with initials on the clothes, which will tell the student where his jacket, pants or some other thing is. Or stick a picture with an animal that the child will choose in the store.

    /guide/backpacks-for-school/

    How to choose a backpack for a first grader

    Check how your child holds a fork and spoon and if he knows how to use napkins. Remind him how and why to wash his hands.

    Issue #3

    Have difficulty speaking

    What can go wrong. There is a speech therapist at the school where I work, and at the beginning of the school year she conducts diagnostics among the children. According to statistics, over the past three years, there have been more first-graders with speech problems: here I include incorrect pronunciation of sounds, clumsiness of speech, difficulties in using prepositions.

    It happens that a schoolchild does not know how to formulate questions like “can I go out?” or “Do you need to capitalize?”. If such a skill is not developed, the child will have difficulty inserting terms that he learned at school into his questions. And there are many of them: for example, in mathematics it is “term”, “sum”, and in Russian it is “root”, “ending”, “lowercase and uppercase letters”.

    The inability to ask a question, especially with new terms, can lead to the fact that the child will not complete the task, but think about how to ask the question, without noticing that other children have already asked it, and the teacher has answered. This distracts the child from the objectives of the lesson and can upset him.

    Speech problems are also reflected in writing lessons. The child swaps letters in words: instead of “but” he writes “he”, instead of “Svetlana” – “Sevtlana”. Skips letters in words: not “snowflakes”, but “snowflakes”. He writes according to the principle “as I speak, so I write”: “hat” turns into “hoe”. Continuously writes prepositions with the words: “in the forest” merges into “forest”.

    /dyslexia-how-to/

    “I learned to accept my difference”: 3 stories about living and learning with dyslexia

    If speech problems are not solved, the child may make mistakes on even the simplest multiple choice tests. And in the fourth grade, he is waiting for the All-Russian test work, where there are a lot of text tasks both for missing letters and words, and for expressing his opinion in writing.

    How to fix it. In a couple of weeks, it is unlikely that it will be possible to improve oral speech. It is better to think about improvements at least a year in advance. If the child was recommended classes with a speech therapist, parents should not refuse these classes.

    The more often parents communicate with their child, the more likely they are to notice language problems, such as changing sounds in words. If in doubt, it is better not to close your eyes to them, but to go to a speech therapist. He will determine the source of the problem and advise what to do next.

    Issue #4

    They do not have all the basic skills that are needed in the lessons

    What can go wrong. Already at the first lesson of mathematics, the teacher will ask the children to count the objects, arrange them from the highest to the lowest and name the object that is between the other two. Therefore, in mathematics, it is more comfortable for a child who knows numbers, knows how to call them in direct and reverse order, determine the number that comes before and after the one called, compare objects by color, size, number within ten.

    In my practice, by the beginning of school, most children can count directly and backward within ten, easily answer questions about the location of numbers relative to each other.

    But the knowledge of geometric figures and, in general, geometric representations are less developed: children confuse figures or do not know their names. This also interferes in mathematics lessons, because already in the first grade they study the sum of the lengths of all sides of a square, rhombus, rectangle.

    Before the first grade, it is useful for a child to distinguish geometric shapes, to know their names: circle, square, rectangle, rhombus, oval Before the first grade, it is useful for a child to distinguish geometric shapes, to know their names: circle, square, rectangle, rhombus, oval

    In the Russian language lessons, many children do not know how to classify objects by gender and select different adjectives for one noun: for example, “what kind of snow?” – it can be white, soft, fluffy, cold. In recent years, children often change “good” and “I agree” to the word “ok”.

    There is a lot of text in textbooks that you need to be able to comprehend: catch the main idea, ask a question about what you read, convey the intonation of an interrogative and exclamatory sentence in reading or in a monologue. Many children do not know how to do this. Also, a lot of guys do not know how to hold a pen correctly and for a long time, so it is difficult for them, for example, to accurately trace letters.

    From year to year there are fewer first-graders to whom parents read fairy tales or just fiction. Such joint activity develops the child’s imagination, his ability to formulate questions and give detailed answers, replenishes vocabulary. At school, such skills are very necessary, but sometimes children lack them – and it is difficult for the teacher to build a lesson and communicate with students.

    In the lesson of the surrounding world, the child’s basic ideas about the world, as well as his communication skills, are clearly visible: for example, he can tell what pets he saw, where he went in the summer. According to my observations, children who travel around the region, around the country, who have animals, and relatives live in another city or village, are more active in the lesson.

    /razvivashki/

    In a year I spent 6587 Р on developmental notebooks for the child

    Often, at the first technology lessons, the teacher shows the children how to keep the workplace in order, how to use scissors. Without these skills, a technology lesson is a big test for a child. According to my calculations, he confidently holds scissors and cuts about a quarter of the class along the contour.

    Some guys don’t know how to use glue: how to spread it, how to fasten parts with your fingers. This also leads to anxiety. For example, using technology, children make a common panel of cut leaves or flowers, which they will then hang in the classroom. Each student will try to cut and paste their element as accurately as possible, but sometimes children get very upset if they fail precisely because they do not know how to hold scissors or glue.

    How to fix this. All the skills discussed above are formed in children during the game and during communication. It is not necessary to make a lot of efforts, it is enough to involve the child in joint activities in everyday life.

    To develop counting, you can count passing cars with your child, write numbers with a stick in the sand or chalk on asphalt, and in the store pay attention to the cost of products. Or invite the child to count the number of fruits in the vase, but not just “one, two, three”, but with the pronunciation of the subject: “one tangerine”, “two tangerines”. Another way is to solve simple problems with a child: “You have three apples, you will give one apple to your mother and one to a friend, how many will you have left?”

    To learn geometric shapes, you can play a game: draw shapes, and then perform some actions like “trace your finger”, “roll the car in a circle”, “show an object that looks like a square”. If you cut out the drawings, you can sort them into groups – by size, by shape.

    I noticed more than once that children like the lessons of the world around them. In order for the child to be an active participant in the process, it does not hurt him to know the names of two or three indoor plants, to distinguish between trees that grow in the yard or in the country, to know wild and domestic animals, to name several migratory birds, to correctly list the days of the week, seasons and their signs .

    In preparation for school, a useful skill is the ability to understand what is read or told by adults, to answer questions from the text. Read fairy tales to your child, talk about animals, nature, other children. Ask questions and listen to the answers to the end, involve the future student in family conversations on various topics. It is better for parents to get rid of the habit of interrupting the child, thinking out and completing answers for him.

    /list/first-books/

    Self-reading books: 13 options for children of all ages

    You can get acquainted with literature not only through reading, but also by listening to audio books with your child, watching films. The main thing is to pay attention to the title of the work, the names of the characters, discuss their actions, and convey to the child the meaning of the story.

    This is how children develop the skill to ask questions and answer them in an extended monologue. The teacher can ask “how was your weekend”, and the student will answer not just “good”, but “we went to grandma’s, saw a big cow there”.

    Play a game like “Cities” by naming words starting with a certain letter, learn and sing children’s songs. Then the child will quickly form the skill of perception and analysis of information.

    It is useful to draw the elements of letters, to hatch shapes: this skill forms fine motor skills of the hands, which will be useful for writing. You can simply find templates on the Internet and print or even draw the shapes yourself. The development of motor skills is facilitated by cutting out figures, appliqués and modeling.

    Problem #5

    They do not follow the rules and follow the commands poorly

    What can go wrong. Rules is not only a game at recess. For example, this is also a “game” on the order of answers in the lesson. Or the rules of conduct in public places and on the street: cross the road at a traffic light and a pedestrian crossing, not communicate with strangers, be able to call for help in a difficult situation, listen and hear the teacher.

    My practice shows that children who went to the garden better understand the rules of games and follow them more willingly. However, most of the guys do not follow the order of answers, interrupt each other, some laugh at the answers of others. And the more such children, the more time the teacher spends on organizing work in the classroom.

    Mostly all students perform the actions according to the model, but few can cope with the execution of commands. Whereas commands like “circle”, “color”, “write”, “fill in”, “move to the left”, “step back three cells to the right” are very common in the lessons. For example, in mathematics, the teacher will ask:

    1. Put a dot in the lower left corner of the cell.
    2. Move to the end of the cell to the right.
    3. Then go up to the top of the cage.
    4. Draw a line to the left.
    5. Diagonally return to the opposite point.

    The picture on the left is what it should be, but a lot of guys draw like the two pictures on the right. This is due to the fact that they inattentively listen to the teacher’s commands or do not know the term “opposite”. The picture on the left is what it should turn out, but many guys draw as shown in the two pictures on the right. This is due to the fact that they inattentively listen to the teacher’s commands or do not know the term “opposite”

    How to fix this. Play with children games with clear rules like checkers and chess, outdoor and word games: such activities encourage the child to concentrate on the task for a long time, to comply with the conditions for achieving goals.

    You can also work out the rules of behavior on the street – for example, when walking with a child, show how to cross the road in the right place. You can learn a safe traffic light route to school, even if you plan to see off and meet your child.

    /guide/doroga-v-shkolu/

    How to teach your child to get to school safely

    Pay attention to landmarks along the way – houses, bushes, monuments, whether you are walking or driving. Or say: “now we are driving along Marx Street, and then we will turn to Lenin.” Such conversations form spatial thinking and replenish vocabulary, which will help you better understand the teacher at school. They also make the journey home safer on your own.

    Problem #6

    Not psychologically ready for school

    What can go wrong. An important condition for a successful start of school life is the ability to take into account the interests of others, because school forms of education are collective in nature. They involve interaction and cooperation, as well as dialogue with the teacher.

    The relationship with the class largely determines how successfully a child can perceive and process learning experience, that is, benefit from it for their own development.

    At first, the guys look at each other, but the children who attended preschool institutions join the school life more boldly: kindergarten, additional development classes. Nevertheless, from the first days you can see brave guys who will help a classmate find the way to the toilet and will not hesitate to visit a friend from a neighboring class. If classmates went to the same kindergarten, they communicate more actively with each other during breaks.

    There are guys who at first do not leave the classroom, hardly accept invitations from their peers and teachers to play. Some children miss their parents. At the same time, teachers notice that mothers call some children every break, preventing them from showing independence. Parents will find out how the child feels, does not worry and whether he is bored, whether they asked him in the lesson or not.

    /life-lessons/

    “This moment changed everything”: 11 life lessons from teachers

    Sometimes children call their parents at recess and complain that they were not asked in the lesson, and the parents begin to write or call the teacher about it. There are guys who confuse the teacher’s emotionality with screaming. For example, the teacher emphasized with his voice “we are looking for the FIRST term”, and the student thought that they were shouting at him. Then the parents also begin to figure out why they raise their voice at the child.

    This happens in families where parents are by default badly disposed towards the teacher and the school. For example, parents in front of a child evaluate the actions of a teacher from their own point of view, which is obviously negative.

    How to fix this. The psychological readiness of a child for school is not specific knowledge, skills and abilities, but rather general maturity. It is mainly formed during communication – from spontaneous play in the yard and a visit to a museum to drawing and talking with parents over dinner.

    Also important is the trust of adults in the child and the development of his independence and responsibility for his actions. At the same time, before the start of the school year, it is not necessary to instill “love for the school”: it is impossible to love something that you have not yet encountered.

    Try to form curiosity, cognitive motivation “I want to know everything”. Tell your child more often that he will learn a lot of interesting things at school, will find new friends. Do not intimidate children with school and at the same time do not promise easy victories.

    Children’s ideas about school life are formed mainly from the statements of others, from conversations about school. Therefore, try not to make critical remarks about the school and teachers in front of the child. If a parent is concerned about some issue, it is better to discuss it with the teacher in person.

    Try not to compare your child’s achievements with your own, or with those of your older brother or sister and classmates. Love and patience will serve as a guarantee of confident progress in your studies. Be a child’s helper and ally: praise for achievements and be a support.

    Similarities and Differences Between Montessori and Piaget – Montessori for Today

    In this article, we will look at the similarities and differences between the theories of Maria Montessori and Jean Piaget, two landmark thinkers who revolutionized the way we view education and child development. We will also visit a theorist named Lev Vygotsky. Vygotsky differed from Montessori and Piaget on some basic, structural issues, but they also had a lot of important ideas in common. 

    Montessori and Piaget’s theories diverge on the specific stages of development and the importance of social and cultural aspects of learning, but they have much in common. Both share an emphasis on child-centered classrooms, repeating lessons as needed, and allowing children to learn at their own pace. More importantly, they share a belief in the importance of sequential, discreet stages of development. 

    We will also see that Vygotsky plays a vital role. His views of the structural, sequential aspects of development diverge greatly from Montessori and Piaget. His views on the social and cultural aspects of development, however, help us understand the Montessori method.

    Piaget and Pyschological Constructivism

    Jean Piaget was a Swiss psychologist who lived between 1896 and 1980. He conducted his early studies at the Las Maison de Petit school in Geneva. This was an experimental nursery school based on Maria Montessori’s ideas. He also served as the head of the Swiss Montessori Society for many years. While it may be a common misconception that Maria Montessori’s method is based on the ideas of Piaget (or perhaps Vygotsky), it’s actually it’s the reverse that is true. Both were influenced by Montessori.

    Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development

    Piaget’s stages of development are called ‘discreet’ which means they adhere to a certain order that should not, and cannot be rearranged or reordered. These periods are flexible guidelines that may vary from child to child.  Some periods may overlap, and some children may learn faster or slower. The stages, however, cannot be skipped. This is why they are more commonly referred to as ‘hierarchical’.

       1. Sensor-motor Stage- This occurs during 0-2 years of age.At this stage, the child demonstrates and develops ‘Intelligence in action’.They do this by interacting with their environment through manipulating physical objects.At this point, children are using their senses to learn about the world. 

       2. Pre-operational Stage– This stage divides into two substages: the pre-conceptual stage (0-2 years) and the intuitive stage (4-7 years).  At this point, children are still predominately self-centered. Although the child’s thinking is dominated by sensory perception, they become more and more capable of symbolic functioning; language development occurs.
    During the intuitive stage, the child will begin to go beyond sensory perceptions, but they are still overtly influenced by their perception of the environment. Children only acquire the basic skills of symbolic functioning; they can’t quite understand abstract reasoning or logic.

       3. Concrete Operational Stage

    This stage occurs during age 7-11, sometimes age 12.  Logical reasoning and critical thinking are developed at this time. Children can organize knowledge, classify objects and work on rudimentary thought problems, but logical reasoning can only be applied to objects that are “real” or can be seen (i.e physical objects, not metaphysical objects, such as “contradictions” or “justice”).

       4. Formal Operational Stage

    This occurs during ages 11-12 and up. Now the child can think realistically about their future. The individual can now think logically about things beyond physical or real objects. Thinking about potential events and abstract ideas begin. Here one gains the ability to solve abstract, complex problems.

    These are the stages that all humans must pass through, according to Piaget,  to achieve full intellectual and psychological maturity. Reaching the next stage and developing properly is not a given, however. For example, studies have shown that one-third of adults have not reached the Formal Operational Stage (Theories of Development– William Crane 2005).

    When a child’s development is not addressed according to these stages, or they do not succeed in moving on to the next stage, this causes boredom in students. This, in turn, leads to teachers moving from topic to topic, subject to subject, and in a traditional classroom environment, some kids get left behind in the process.

    One thing to note is that Piaget’s theory is generally devoid of any social or cultural context when he lays out these stages. It is a purely psychological theory. It takes place in a typical classroom setting; Lessons are structured and predetermined, and students do not choose their activities.

    Vygostsky and Social Constructivism

    Lev Vygotsky was a Russian psychologist from Belarus, in the former soviet union. He died, tragically, at the age of thirty-seven, in 1934.   His theory is known as the sociocultural theory of development. Unfortunately, we have no idea what his theory might have been, had his life not been cut short by Tuberculosis. 

    The first, most important aspect to note about Vygotsky’s theory, for purposes of our comparison, is that community and language are essential aspects of learning. Also, he does NOT believe that children necessarily develop in stages. He believes that children develop independently, according to their own process, as the result of social interaction.

    This development occurs via what he calls the Four Elementary Functions:

    1. Attention
    2. Sensation
    3. Perception
    4. Memory

    These are the abilities that all humans have from birth.  He begins with the earliest possible explanation because he is laying down not just an education or development theory, but a full epistemology that explains how learning and knowledge are possible (we will explain this further in a moment). By using these four abilities in society, we gain higher, more complicated mental abilities. 

    These are also abilities that we can use independently, without the aid of a parent, teacher, or mentor. These people are what Vygotsky would call “More Knowledgable Others”. He emphasizes the role of these others in development, over and above any hierarchical system. Instead of sequential models, his notion is based on modeling and guided practice. 

    He also notes that this ‘more knowledgable other’ could be a technological tool, such as a book or an electronic device, not necessarily a present human being. You might think of this as a “Knowledgable Other, by Proxy”.

    This all occurs in what Vygotsky calls the zone of proximal development. This is the category of things that we can do with the help of a More Knowledgable Other. Beyond this zone are things that are beyond the scope of our current ability. For example, you can’t teach a baby to play the piano and you can’t teach a toddler to diagram a sentence. It is simply beyond their zone of proximal development, according to Vygotsky. This is why he might say it’s not a good idea to teach philosophy to children who are too young. The concepts may be beyond their reach.  

    Note, that while there is a clear path of progression here (left to right), making this a “constructivist” theory, this is different than passing through hierarchical stages, as we see with Montessori and Piaget.

    An interesting result of this is that we might find situations where a child’s learning precedes their development. This explains how a child might develop a skill that goes beyond their natural maturity. For example, children who are prodigies at chess, mathematics, or music. This is not something to be ordinarily expected in the normal course of development, according to this theory, however.

    Another important result of this theory regards the internalization of language. Children who have not completed this aspect of development are limited to “thinking out loud” when they use language. A child must develop in such a way that ‘internal language’ and spoken language are independent. This internalization of language is what produces higher thought.

    Montessori Solutions: A Cognitive Approach

    So, how does the Montessori method relate to these two? Let’s look closely now at the similarities and differences:
    The Montessori method incorporates the best aspects of both of these constructivist approaches, but without the rigid structures that tend to hinder development. It incorporates the social and cultural aspects of Vygotsky’s approach, and it also incorporates the “sequential” approach of Piaget. However, unlike Piaget’s method, it does not focus on purely intellectual issues. And unlike Vygotsky’s method, it does not assume that a child is too young to engage in certain learning activities. 

    The Montessori method and Piaget’s constructivism are both similar to a degree. Constructivism as we mentioned, is an epistemology, which is philosophical jargon for “how someone knows what they know”. Typical examples are rationalism (the view that knowledge is a direct result of reason) and empiricism (the view that knowledge comes from our senses or experience). Constructivists believe that knowledge is acquired as a result of the interaction of thoughts and experiences. This is also in line with Montessori’s views.

    Montessori and Piaget both believe children develop in sequential order, which necessarily builds on the development that came before. As one acquires experience, this is processed by the rational mind, which leads to further experience, which leads to development and learning. This mirrors the Montessori views expressed in the five great Montesorri lessons. As the universe develops, so does the human mind.

    Despite these similarities, Montessori is not, technically, a constructivist. Her method has many traits in common with cognitivism. This is the view that knowledge cannot be acquired or understood purely in terms of observable behavior or the purely physical aspects of the universe. One must refer to the inner mind and internal mental processes. This is apparent when we look at the Montessori method’s focus on what is referred to as “Planes” of development (as opposed to Piaget’s “Stages”).

    Montessori Planes of Development

    Birth-3 years: Focuses on the absorbency of the mind and learning from the senses.

    18 months: 3years: Muscle development and physical coordination begin. Children focus on smaller objects.

    2-4 years: Physical movement becomes more refined. Time and space perception develop; sequences in time and space are realized. The child becomes aware of notions of truth and reality.

    2.5-6 years: The senses are developed. The processing of sensory information is refined.

    3 -6 years: Children become susceptible to adult influence. Good and bad examples begin to set in.

    3.5-4.5 years: The focus is on writing and written language skills.

    4-4.4 years: The tactile senses begin to mature. Sense of taste and touch develop. 

    4.5-5.5 years: The focus is on reading. Acquiring information using the language skills that have been developed. 

    As you can see, these planes are quite different in focus and organization than Piaget’s stages. One result is that the Montesorri method does not get hung up on the concrete operation stage, or any particular stage. It acknowledges “sensitive periods” where it’s best for a certain kind of learning to occur but realizes that it’s never too early to begin developing the senses and laying foundations for higher learning. 

    Comparing Practical Methods: Montessori vs Vygotsky

    In many ways, the Montessori method also differs from Vygotsky’s. Whereas Vygotsky might say teaching philosophy is beyond the reach of the zone of proximal development, Montessori would at least begin introducing some very basic philosophical notions as soon as possible.  

    You might not teach a toddler to play piano, but not only can you let them get familiar with one. They’ll learn more just touching it than they would from a toy instrument! You can also begin playing music for them in the womb, to use a common example.  This also means children are assumed to be capable of learning reading, writing, and arithmetic much earlier than under Piaget’s theory.

    The Piaget and Montessori methods are similar for children under the age of three. After this, they diverge. The Montessori method is “child-directed”, where The Piaget system assigns activities. The Piaget classroom resembles a traditional school setup, while in a Montessori classroom, children of more diverse ages (usually three groups within 3-4 years) may be learning together at the same time.

    Piaget focuses on the individual child, one child at a time. Conversely, Vygotsky focuses on groups of children and social learning. We learn social skills through language. This is the primary focus of learning and teaching. Using these skills, we develop the complete child as a total package. We go beyond academic learning and problem-solving. 

    In this way, Montessori and Vygotsky both encourage a less rigid learning environment. In particular, they de-emphasize the importance of groups and organized activity. This is mainly because Piaget’s theory, unlike the other two, does not address the social and cultural aspects and impacts of learning. 

    It is important to keep in mind that many of these differences become clear when we note that Piaget and Vygotsky are clearly constructivists, whereas there is some debate as to how Montessori fits into that category. If we define ‘constructivist’ as any theory of development that uses previous knowledge as a foundation for new ideas, then the shoe would seem to fit. Here are some notable differences, however:
    Montessori and Constructivism

    Montessori initially focuses on the senses and sensory processing.

    -Constructivists initially focus on meaning and organization.

    The Montessori method uses self-correcting materials for teaching.

    -Constructivism relies on input from teachers for correction.

    Montessori encourages “error-filled experimentation”. Self-correcting materials act as a control.

    -Constructivism avoids discouraging wrong answers.

    Montessori emphasizes individual works and the importance of personal choice.

    -Constructivism emphasizes cooperative group projects and group discussions.

    Montessori emphasizes proper social dynamics in the classroom. Courtesy, respect, and love are expected. 

    -Constructivists believe suppressing conflict can hinder a child’s development by causing them not to consider opposing points of view. 

    Montessori believes children’s proper behavior and discipline come from “joyful obedience”, based on a fundamental worldview, and that teachers are there to guide, not to discipline. 

    -Constructivists believe the teacher is a knowledgable companion who forms a personal, equal peer relationship with the children.

    Some Basic Advantages

    An important question to ask when comparing these theories is which comes first, social learning, or development? This was a point of contention between Piaget and Vygotsky. For Piaget, whose views were primarily psychological, a child must first develop to a certain intellectual degree, even if only a little, before they could acquire the ability to interact socially. But for Vygotsky, whose views were primarily social, the only way a child could develop any intellectual ideas was through socializing with others! So which comes first, the chicken or the egg?

    The Montessori method provides a clear way out of this conundrum. Social learning and development are interrelated, symbiotic, and happen simultaneously. From the moment of birth, a newborn human is already socially interacting with the first person it sees, and in that very process, is already learning something. This relationship and how it works should be the focus, rather than neglecting one process for the other. Here we see a familiar pattern! One might think of a feedback loop. They are two things that are caused and created by each other. 

    While the Montessori method encourages play activities and imagination and certainly allows “kids to be kids”, it might be misleading to view it as “play-based”. Technically speaking, play-based activities tend to be those that are generally not grounded at all in any kind of reality. They are things a child might do simply for the sake of doing it. These activities are “pretending”. Often they involve role-playing various stereotypes. This is not the kind of “play” the method encourages.

    One of Maria Montessori’s observations was that children who are given the choice of “real” things to do usually prefer this over “pretend” activities. For example, a child would almost always prefer to learn how to use a tool, instead of playing with a toy version of a tool. They would always prefer to bake a cake instead of pretending to bake a cake. This is true, even at an extremely early age. Montessori methods encourage children to take part in these “real” activities sooner than other educational methods would, including those based on Piaget and Vygotsky.

    Unlike Piaget’s or Vygotsky’s method, the Montessori method helps show children where they fit into the stages of development. It gives them identity and shows how we are all interconnected. It shows how their decisions affect other people and how other people affect them. In this way, it gives them ownership and responsibility for their learning.

    The focus of the Montessori method is allowing children to “grow their intelligence”. This means that interrupting a child with admonishments, praise, punishments, etc. is nothing more than adult interference. It just distracts the child from learning. The Montessori method avoids this approach. Because of this, a child learns self-esteem, confidence, and the true value of the work they’ve done, as opposed to being conditioned by praise and disapproval of the adult. This issue is not addressed by either Piaget or Vygotsky.

    The Montessori method also allows children to learn critical thinking and problem solving much earlier than the other theories. This is a key aspect of Piaget’s fourth development stage. This means a Montessori student will acquire problem-solving skills for life, not just for school. Examples are the scientific method or Design Thinking (a seven-step process for problem-solving). 


    Conclusions

    So, now that we have a lot of complicated information, let’s wrap this all up in a nice, simple package! 
    Piaget and Vygotsky have fundamental disagreements. Some they have in common with Montessori. Others, they agree with Montessori but disagree with each other. But both theorists were highly influenced by Maria Montessori. She pioneered the discreet, sequential model of development that inspired Piaget. She also pioneered the kind of social and cultural insights in education and development that inspired thinkers like Vygotsky. It should come as no surprise that the Montessori gives a method that comprises the best of both worlds.

     Traditional classrooms are not adequate for developing children to the formal reasoning of Piaget. Piaget’s method is inadequate for explaining the social and cultural aspects of learning or preparing children for it. Vygotsky’s method is inadequate in providing a structure that clearly explains how development happens, and thus, any guide for navigating through it. This is why the Montessori method provides the best solutions to the problems left unsolved by other development theories.

    “Children are better prepared to be independent and responsible individuals through cosmic education and Montessori method.”

    Comparison of Piaget, Vygotsky, Montessori on Early Childhood Education Theories

    Piaget’s Theory of Development

    Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, developed several key concepts. First, “schemas” involve the physical and mental actions in learning, understanding, and knowing. Schemas involve anything a child is learning about. If the child’s family has a cat, they develop a schema about felines: small, fluffy, cute, makes purring sounds.

    If the child goes to the zoo with their family and they see the tigers’ cage, they may be surprised at the size of those cats. This forces them to modify an existing schema about cats. Now, they need to add new information about the large size of tigers and lions. Mentally, they will modify that previous schema so they can easily include the new information.

    Next, Piaget said that children who are adding new information to a schema are assimilating that information. Children try to modify information or their experiences so that they fit into beliefs they already hold.

    Next, they attempt to create a comfortable balance between assimilation and accommodation, using a process called equilibration. As children move through each stage of cognitive development, they work at keeping that balance between using new knowledge and changing their behavior/schema to account for new knowledge they have learned (assimilation and accommodation). By using equilibration, children can progress more easily from one developmental stage of thought and into the next one.

    Vygotsky’s Theory of Social Development

    Vygotsky’s theory differs a little because he says that social interaction has a strong influence on how children develop cognitively. Children rely on people or devices with knowledge they don’t yet have.

    The adult, more experienced peer, or (in today’s world) an electronic learning device is referred to as the More Knowledgeable Other or MKO. A teen or adult child can be an MKO to an adult who wants to learn something new about teen culture or a new electronic device.

    Learners work within a Zone of Proximal Development or ZPD. This zone consists of three circles, with 2 inside the outermost circle. Within the smallest, interior circle, is what the child already knows. The next, larger circle contains information that the child still doesn’t know but is capable of learning with assistance from an MKO. The largest, exterior circle consists of information, skills, or knowledge that the child can’t yet learn, even with help.

    Vygotsky believed that the MKO should teach the learner only what is within reach, in the zone of proximal development, with guidance and encouragement. The MKO demonstrates the new skill, then begins to guide the child through each step, and then the student can progress to more complicated skills that were previously out of range for them.

    Montessori Theory

    After Montessori was able to successfully treat mentally disabled children who were thought to be impossible to educate, she decided she wanted to determine the potential of regular children who had no problems learning.

    Working with children living in the San Lorenz slum, she developed her own theory, which is based on Periods of Development. She proposed the idea of Conducive Learning, where children were grouped based on periods of development. Children are grouped in three-year or six-year spans and work with the same teacher during this period.

    The youngest group (Nido) is aged 0 to 1, or until the child is walking. The second group is the Infant Community, aged 1 to about 2 and a half or three. Group three is the “Casa dei Bambini,” aged 2.5 or 3 to 6.

    Group four covers a wider age range, from 6 to 12. The children in this group have the same learning habits and tendencies. Their emotional and physical growth tends to be steadier, and their intellectual work is strong. In this group, the younger children are inspired by and learn from the older children. Finally, the next grouping is 12 to 15-year-olds. Montessori proposed a farm school for this age group, giving the children real farm work to do.

    Stages vs. Planes of Development

    Piaget based his theory on what he saw as a child’s stages of development. These included:

    • Sensorimotor, from birth to 2 years. They use their senses to learn about the world.
    • Preoperational Period, from 2 to 7 years. They learn and develop language and learning skills, but are self-centered, and can’t understand abstract reasoning or logic.
    • Concrete Operational Period, from 7 to 11 years. Now they think logically and organize their knowledge. They classify objects and work on thought problems.
    • Formal Operations Period, 11 to 15. The child starts reasoning more realistically about their future and deals better with abstractions.

    Montessori worked using her own Planes of Development. These included:

    • Birth to 3 years: An absorbent mind, learning from the sensory
    • 18 months to 3 years: Begins muscle development and working on coordination – Likes smaller objects
    • 2 to 4 years: Refines movements – Focuses on truth and reality – Develops awareness of order sequences in time and space
    • 2. 5 to 6 years: Sensory refinement
    • 3 to 6 years: Becoming susceptible to adult influence
    • 3.5 to 4.5 years: Works on writing
    • 4 to 4.4 years: Tactile senses begin to mature
    • 4.5 to 5.5 years: Works on reading

    Piaget vs. Vygotsky

    Piaget didn’t spend much time thinking about a child’s social context. Instead, he believed that their cognitive development revolves around changes in the cognitive process and the child’s abilities. Early cognitive development uses processes based on actions, then progresses to changes in mental operations.

    He used schemas or categorization to explain how children learn, using both the physical and mental in learning. Within schemas, assimilation and accommodation also take place. Children also place already-known information with newly learned information in a process called equilibration. In his theory of child and human development babies, toddlers, preschoolers, children, teens, and young adults progress through four stages of learning and development. He said that the early cognitive development of a child involves processes that are based on actions. This development then progresses into changes in mental operations.

    Vygotsky believed that social interactions have a big influence on the development of cognition. He also felt that the community surrounding a child holds a role in how children make meaning out of everything they see, learn, feel, and hear.

    He introduced the More Knowledgeable Other as a source of experience and learning for a child. This MKO can be a parent, teacher, or relative of the child. This person can also be a younger child or teen who teaches an older adult or family friend about using electronics or learning a new dance, for instance.

    Next, he introduced the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) in where the most sensitive guidance should be provided, allowing the child to learn by practicing.

    What Do They have in Common?

    Between Piaget and Montessori, both psychologists believe that young children begin to work on the refinement of their movements early. At 3.5 to 7 years (covering the developmental periods for both professionals), children begin to develop drawing and writing skills.

    While Vygotsky didn’t divide child development into age groups, he did believe that a child could progress to this stage if that was what was culturally expected of him. If the majority of children in a certain age group know a certain skill, then one of them, or a teacher-figure, will act as the MKO for that child and he will inevitably also learn that skill.

    In all three theories, the psychologists say that every child begins to learn about their world by using their senses. Vygotsky calls it “making meaning.” Piaget says that children obtain knowledge or their environment through the five senses.

    Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is similar to Montessori’s Planes of Development and Piaget gives each developmental stage a name (sensorimotor, preoperational, formal operations).

    Likewise, Vygotsky’s ZPD has an outer ring that denotes all the information that a child is not yet ready to learn. Montessori’s planes of development show that some learning may be out of reach of children at various stages. Piaget does the same thing, noting that there are things children can’t learn until they reach a certain cognitive level.

    How These Theories Manifest in the Classroom

    Children are social creatures. When they start school, they are one of 20 or more other students who are ready to begin formal learning.

    Montessori created a model for learning that is known the world over. Montessori-based schools exist in most communities around the world. Individual classrooms and teachers in a Montessori school don’t teach traditionally. Instead, they are based on conducive learning, with multi-aged groups. The teacher doesn’t actively teach the entire classroom. Instead, they have a more generalized lesson plan. They introduce children to a concept using a book, lesson, or lecture. As the children learn, individually and with older children, they process the information, then “know” the knowledge and demonstrate this by passing a test, completing a project, expressing what they have learned, or by teaching another student.

    Montessori said that children are always learning something new, which prepares them to learn another new thing. This is indirect learning. The entire class isn’t learning the same thing as classmates; they are working at their own pace, using the environment, and working with other classmates. The teacher teaches one child at a time. All areas of study link together and students can work on them in the order they choose.

    In Piaget’s theory, assimilation, accommodation, and equilibration all work in a classroom setting. Children learn something new in the primary grades; as they progress grade by grade, they encounter the same information at a higher level of difficulty.

    Vygotsky’s theory relies much more on the social interactions between children, adults, and society in general. Because of the social networks between children and their families, children can go to someone they know to ask for help in learning something new.

    Constructivism Explained

    “Constructivism” is a learning theory that says humans construct their knowledge using hands-on experience rather than being taught abstract concepts from books. The teacher who uses constructivism in teaching students does everything they can to give students hands-on experiences, using people and objects. The teacher also asks students to use any skills they have already learned.

    It’s a constructivist learning process to use materials to learn about assembly lines and what working conditions were like when assembly lines were most in use.

    When the teacher has students use wrapping paper to determine whether it’s sufficient to wrap two cans, students put together a mathematical formula to determine a cylinder’s area.

    It’s also constructivist to have students read persuasive articles, decide which of the articles have features that make them the most effective, and then create a rubric that includes all of those qualities for their own persuasive papers. Once they have written their reports out, they will be assigned to read more persuasive papers so they can fine-tune their criteria even more.

    Maria Montessori was a constructivist. She wrote, “Education is not something which the teacher does, but a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being. It is not acquired by listening to words but in virtue of experiences in which the child acts on his environment.”

    Lev Vygotsky was another constructivist. He wrote, “A child’s play is not simply a reproduction of what he has experienced, but a creative reworking of the impressions he has acquired. He combines them and uses them to construct a new reality.”

    Jean Piaget was also a constructivist and said, “Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely.

    Theories of developmental stages – The Montessorian

    Several educational theorists believe that there are different stages of development over the course of a human’s life. Some of these theorists include Maria Montessori, Erik Erikson, Jean Piaget, and Rudolf Steiner. In this section, Montessori’s theory about the developmental stages will be compared to those of the other three theorists mentioned above.

    Erik Erikson

    Erikson’s theory focuses on the psychosocial development of humanity (Mooney, 2013). He believed that there are eight ‘ages’ of humanity that cover the whole life span (Mooney, 2013). The age brackets seen in Erikson’s theory (refer to Table 1) are similar to those seen in Montessori’s planes and sub-planes, with some comparable terminology as well. Just as with Montessori’s planes of development, as the person passes through each of Erikson’s ages they adopt certain characteristics before passing on to the next age (Mooney, 2013). For each age of Erikson’s theory, Mooney (2013) specified a developmental stage and strength, similar to Montessori’s sensitive periods. However, Erikson also identified ‘weaknesses’ of each stage (Mooney, 2013).

    Erikson believed that patterns were developed in the earliest years of life from the strengths and weaknesses acquired during that time (Mooney, 2013). These patterns would “… regulate, or at least influence, a person’s actions and interactions for the rest of his or her life” (Mooney, 2013, p. 55). This is comparable to the significance of Montessori’s ‘sensitive periods’ for a human’s development in the early years. Similarly, Erikson and Montessori both understood the importance of the early years for children’s development. However, Erikson thought that it was possible for a person to go back and ‘renegotiate’ any difficulties encountered in the first three stages.

    Birth to 12 months Trust vs. Mistrust Hope
    1-3 years Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt Willpower
    3-6 years Initiative vs. Guilt Purpose
    6-11 years Industry vs. Inferiority Competence
    Adolescence Identity vs. Role Confusion Fidelity
    Young adulthood Intimacy vs. Isolation Love
    Middle age Generativity vs. Self-Absorption Care
    Old age Integrity vs. Despair Wisdom

    Jean Piaget

    Piaget followed Montessori’s work, using it as the foundation for his own educational theories (Mooney, 2013). He too believed that children need to do meaningful work for themselves and identified stages of cognitive development linked to age brackets (Mooney, 2013) (see Table 2). Contrary to Erikson’s ‘psychosocial’ stages, Piaget described his developmental theory as ‘stages of cognitive development’ (Mooney, 2013). He focused more on behaviours learned through these times, rather than ‘strengths’ or the broader characteristics identified by Montessori in her planes of development.

    Piaget’s sensorimotor stage has strong correlations with Montessori’s first plane of development. They both believed that children first learn through absorbing information with unconscious thought, dubbed reflexive by Piaget (M. Montessori, 2012; Mooney, 2013). Both Montessori and Piaget understood that children process their environment through their senses in the first plane and the sensorimotor stage, and that this is where intelligence formed and cognitive development is started (M. Montessori, 2012; Mooney, 2013). Montessori and Piaget had differing views on the ages of the next developmental stage, with Piaget’s preoperational stage two to seven years of age, whilst Montessori considered this part of the sub-plane of the first plane, and considered the age bracket to be three to six years of age (M. Montessori, 2012; Mooney, 2013). They both viewed learning during these times as forming ideas from life experiences. Furthermore, Piaget recognised the importance of large blocks of time for ‘free play,’ based on Montessori’s theories about the uninterrupted work cycle (Mooney, 2013). Real life experiences were also considered vital by both theorists in children’s learning, providing opportunities for deeper construction of knowledge (Mooney, 2013).

    Jean Piaget (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jean_Piaget_in_Ann_Arbor.png)

     For the final two stages of Piaget’s developmental theory, similarities are evident with Montessori’s works in that the child moves from concrete thought to abstract thought. Mooney (2013) describes a flexibility of thought, where the child moves towards logical and hypothetical thought, where richer questions can be considered, and several qualities can be held in the brain at one time (Grazzini, 1979; Haines et al. , 2000). While Montessori described young adulthood age brackets in detail as part of her developmental planes, Piaget’s stages of development are much broader and end with “11 or 12 years of age and older” (Mooney, 2013, p. 81). 
    Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development
    Age Stage Behaviours
    Birth to 2 years Sensorimotor Learn through the senses; learn through reflexes; manipulate materials.
         
    2-7 years Preoperational Form ideas based on their perceptions; can only focus on one variable at a time; overgeneralize based on limited experience.
         
    7-11 or 12 years Concrete Operational Form ideas based on reasoning; limit thinking to objects and familiar events.
         
    11 or 12 years Formal Operational Think conceptually; think hypothetically.

    Rudolf Steiner

    Steiner believed in three stages of learning, with unique requirements for learning in each (Edwards, 2002). Steiner, like Montessori, viewed the first stage of learning as a time where learning is done through ‘doing’ with hands-on experiences. However, while they both cited this stage as a time for physical, intellectual, and emotional growth, Steiner put a much greater emphasis on the term ‘imaginary play’ (Edwards, 2002).

    While this terminology is not seen as frequently in Montessori’s works (and her views on it created controversy), the descriptions of activities and characteristics are similar to the work and qualities of children in Montessori programs. For example, children will “… become deeply and engaged and develop powers of concentration and motivation” (Edwards, 2002, p. 5) through “bodily exploration, constructive and creative play, and oral … language” (Edwards, 2002, p. 4) in both Steiner and Montessori education. Both theorists recognised the importance of an uninterrupted work cycle and a regular schedule (Edwards, 2002). Furthermore, they both emphasised the significant impacts science, literature, music, and education through nature have on children’s learning.

    Rudolf Steiner (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:RudolfSteiner.jpeg)

    However, a noteworthy difference between the two approaches was Steiner’s focus on learning through oral language rather than the concrete to abstract approach that Montessori employed (Edwards, 2002).

    Steiner’s Cycles of Child Development
    Age Stage Characteristics
    Birth to 7 years Imitation Learn through imitation and doing; imaginary play the most important ‘work’; educational focus on bodily exploration, constructive and creative play, and oral language.
         
    7-14 years Imagination Explore the world through conscious imagination; integrated, multisensorial approach to learning and expression.
         
    High school Intellect Rational, abstract power of intellect emerges; focus on ethics, social responsibility, and mastery of complex and rigorous subject matter.

    Summary

    Montessori’s planes of development have clearly delineated age brackets and characteristics, each of which plays its own significant role in the development of the human. A variety of educational theorists believed in these stages, with connections between Montessori’s theories and those of some other theorists evident. There were, however, some differences in their understandings of where the age brackets started and stopped, and differences in terminology or developmental characteristics.

    The sensitive periods of development are evident in brain research as well as educational theory. Educational experiences that are tailored to meet the needs of children in these periods will provide rich learning that will be carried throughout life. Furthermore, these sensitive periods are intrinsically linked to Montessori’s concept of the absorbent mind. The absorbent mind processes and utilises what is learnt during each plane of development so the information can be used appropriately by the person.

    The concepts discussed in this paper are evident in early childhood education today. The way children are observed, curriculum planned, and our understandings of child development owe a lot to the theories and research mentioned here. The work of theorists such as Montessori, Erikson, Piaget, and Steiner paved the way for quality, tailored education in modern society.

    A Comparison of Piaget, Vygotsky, and Montessori

    Three psychologists of the 19th century developed three different theories of child and cognitive development. Two of these (Montessori and Piaget) said that children learn and develop in sequence. Vygotsky said that children learn using their social environment. He believed that a child’s community holds a major role in how children learn to “make meaning” of the world around them.

    Each psychologist’s theory has had a strong impact on the education of today’s children. Montessori said that children should be allowed to direct their learning to the point that, if they are in an independent work period, they should not be required to interrupt it for a group activity.

    Piaget said that the cognitive development of a child involves changes in their cognitive process and abilities as they age. Early cognitive development influences later progression into how the child adapts their mental operations as they get older.

    Piaget’s Theory of Development

    Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, developed several key concepts. First, “schemas” involve the physical and mental actions in learning, understanding, and knowing. Schemas involve anything a child is learning about. If the child’s family has a cat, they develop a schema about felines: small, fluffy, cute, makes purring sounds.

    If the child goes to the zoo with their family and they see the tigers’ cage, they may be surprised at the size of those cats. This forces them to modify an existing schema about cats. Now, they need to add new information about the large size of tigers and lions. Mentally, they will modify that previous schema so they can easily include the new information.

    Next, Piaget said that children who are adding new information to a schema are assimilating that information. Children try to modify information or their experiences so that they fit into beliefs they already hold.

    Next, they attempt to create a comfortable balance between assimilation and accommodation, using a process called equilibration. As children move through each stage of cognitive development, they work at keeping that balance between using new knowledge and changing their behavior/schema to account for new knowledge they have learned (assimilation and accommodation). By using equilibration, children can progress more easily from one developmental stage of thought and into the next one.

    Vygotsky’s Theory of Social Development

    Vygotsky’s theory differs a little because he says that social interaction has a strong influence on how children develop cognitively. Children rely on people or devices with knowledge they don’t yet have.

    The adult, more experienced peer, or (in today’s world) an electronic learning device is referred to as the More Knowledgeable Other or MKO. A teen or adult child can be an MKO to an adult who wants to learn something new about teen culture or a new electronic device.

    Learners work within a Zone of Proximal Development or ZPD. This zone consists of three circles, with 2 inside the outermost circle. Within the smallest, interior circle, is what the child already knows. The next, larger circle contains information that the child still doesn’t know but is capable of learning with assistance from an MKO. The largest, exterior circle consists of information, skills, or knowledge that the child can’t yet learn, even with help.

    Vygotsky believed that the MKO should teach the learner only what is within reach, in the zone of proximal development, with guidance and encouragement. The MKO demonstrates the new skill, then begins to guide the child through each step, and then the student can progress to more complicated skills that were previously out of range for them.

    Montessori Theory

    After Montessori was able to successfully treat mentally disabled children who were thought to be impossible to educate, she decided she wanted to determine the potential of regular children who had no problems learning.

    Working with children living in the San Lorenz slum, she developed her own theory, which is based on Periods of Development. She proposed the idea of Conducive Learning, where children were grouped based on periods of development. Children are grouped in three-year or six-year spans and work with the same teacher during this period.

    The youngest group (Nido) is aged 0 to 1, or until the child is walking. The second group is the Infant Community, aged 1 to about 2 and a half or three. Group three is the “Casa dei Bambini,” aged 2.5 or 3 to 6.

    Group four covers a wider age range, from 6 to 12. The children in this group have the same learning habits and tendencies. Their emotional and physical growth tends to be steadier, and their intellectual work is strong. In this group, the younger children are inspired by and learn from the older children. Finally, the next grouping is 12 to 15-year-olds. Montessori proposed a farm school for this age group, giving the children real farm work to do.

    Stages vs. Planes of Development

    Piaget based his theory on what he saw as a child’s stages of development. These included:

    • Sensorimotor, from birth to 2 years. They use their senses to learn about the world.
    • Preoperational Period, from 2 to 7 years. They learn and develop language and learning skills, but are self-centered, and can’t understand abstract reasoning or logic.

    Piaget didn’t spend much time thinking about a child’s social context. Instead, he believed that their cognitive development revolves around changes in the cognitive process and the child’s abilities. Early cognitive development uses processes based on actions, then progresses to changes in mental operations.

    He used schemas or categorization to explain how children learn, using both the physical and mental in learning. Within schemas, assimilation and accommodation also take place. Children also place already-known information with newly learned information in a process called equilibration. In his theory of child and human development babies, toddlers, preschoolers, children, teens, and young adults progress through four stages of learning and development. He said that the early cognitive development of a child involves processes that are based on actions. This development then progresses into changes in mental operations.

    Vygotsky believed that social interactions have a big influence on the development of cognition. He also felt that the community surrounding a child holds a role in how children make meaning out of everything they see, learn, feel, and hear.

    He introduced the More Knowledgeable Other as a source of experience and learning for a child. This MKO can be a parent, teacher, or relative of the child. This person can also be a younger child or teen who teaches an older adult or family friend about using electronics or learning a new dance, for instance.

    Next, he introduced the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) in where the most sensitive guidance should be provided, allowing the child to learn by practicing.

    What Do They have in Common?

    Between Piaget and Montessori, both psychologists believe that young children begin to work on the refinement of their movements early. At 3.5 to 7 years (covering the developmental periods for both professionals), children begin to develop drawing and writing skills.

    While Vygotsky didn’t divide child development into age groups, he did believe that a child could progress to this stage if that was what was culturally expected of him. If the majority of children in a certain age group know a certain skill, then one of them, or a teacher-figure, will act as the MKO for that child and he will inevitably also learn that skill.

    In all three theories, the psychologists say that every child begins to learn about their world by using their senses. Vygotsky calls it “making meaning.” Piaget says that children obtain knowledge or their environment through the five senses.

    Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is similar to Montessori’s Planes of Development and Piaget gives each developmental stage a name (sensorimotor, preoperational, formal operations).

    Likewise, Vygotsky’s ZPD has an outer ring that denotes all the information that a child is not yet ready to learn. Montessori’s planes of development show that some learning may be out of reach of children at various stages. Piaget does the same thing, noting that there are things children can’t learn until they reach a certain cognitive level.

    How These Theories Manifest in the Classroom

    Children are social creatures. When they start school, they are one of 20 or more other students who are ready to begin formal learning.

    Montessori created a model for learning that is known the world over. Montessori-based schools exist in most communities around the world. Individual classrooms and teachers in a Montessori school don’t teach traditionally. Instead, they are based on conducive learning, with multi-aged groups. The teacher doesn’t actively teach the entire classroom. Instead, they have a more generalized lesson plan. They introduce children to a concept using a book, lesson, or lecture. As the children learn, individually and with older children, they process the information, then “know” the knowledge and demonstrate this by passing a test, completing a project, expressing what they have learned, or by teaching another student.

    Montessori said that children are always learning something new, which prepares them to learn another new thing. This is indirect learning. The entire class isn’t learning the same thing as classmates; they are working at their own pace, using the environment, and working with other classmates. The teacher teaches one child at a time. All areas of study link together and students can work on them in the order they choose.

    In Piaget’s theory, assimilation, accommodation, and equilibration all work in a classroom setting. Children learn something new in the primary grades; as they progress grade by grade, they encounter the same information at a higher level of difficulty.

    Vygotsky’s theory relies much more on the social interactions between children, adults, and society in general. Because of the social networks between children and their families, children can go to someone they know to ask for help in learning something new.

    Constructivism Explained

    “Constructivism” is a learning theory that says humans construct their knowledge using hands-on experience rather than being taught abstract concepts from books. The teacher who uses constructivism in teaching students does everything they can to give students hands-on experiences, using people and objects. The teacher also asks students to use any skills they have already learned.

    It’s a constructivist learning process to use materials to learn about assembly lines and what working conditions were like when assembly lines were most in use.

    When the teacher has students use wrapping paper to determine whether it’s sufficient to wrap two cans, students put together a mathematical formula to determine a cylinder’s area.

    It’s also constructivist to have students read persuasive articles, decide which of the articles have features that make them the most effective, and then create a rubric that includes all of those qualities for their own persuasive papers. Once they have written their reports out, they will be assigned to read more persuasive papers so they can fine-tune their criteria even more.

    Maria Montessori was a constructivist. She wrote, “Education is not something which the teacher does, but a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being. It is not acquired by listening to words but in virtue of experiences in which the child acts on his environment.

    Lev Vygotsky was another constructivist. He wrote, “A child’s play is not simply a reproduction of what he has experienced, but a creative reworking of the impressions he has acquired. He combines them and uses them to construct a new reality.”

    Jean Piaget was also a constructivist and said, “Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely.”

    A Comparison of Early Childhood Development Theorists

    Many theorists have influenced our understanding of early childhood and the way humans learn and develop. Some theorists sought to awaken society to the discrepancies in traditional education. They strayed from the historical approach, which viewed children as empty vessels that are to be filled and shaped, and instead, advocated a more progressive approach, which demanded that society look at children as individuals, with their own strengths and drive to learn. Five of these theorists are Friedrich Froebel, John Dewey, Maria Montessori, Jean Piaget and Erik Erikson 23.

    Friedrich Froebel

    Friedrich Froebel, who lived from 1782 to 1852, was best known for his kindergarten system 34. He believed that humans are inherently creative beings and that play helps facilitate creative expression. As written on the website, Froebel Web, Froebel believed that “The kindergarten was to be an environment in which children could reach their full creative potential under the protective and interactive guidance of an adult.” Froebel based his system around play materials, which he called “gifts” and activities, which he called “occupations.” He believed that when play is engaged in a meaningful and developmentally appropriate way, play can be a powerful source of education 3. The teacher’s role is to assist in the child’s discovery. Froebel claimed that effective learning occurs via a child’s regular interaction with the world.

    John Dewey

    John Dewey lived from 1859 to 1952 5. Dewey was a founder of the philosophical movement called pragmatism and a key theorist of the progressive movement in education. Like Froebel, Dewey believed that a child’s daily experience is critical to his learning and that curriculum should relate to children’s lives. According to PBS, “Unlike earlier models of teaching, which relied on authoritarianism and rote learning, progressive education asserted that students must be invested in what they were learning.” Dewey suggested that a child’s mind grows via social participation, which is the primary purpose of school. He felt that children do not need activities to learn because they have their own internal tendencies toward action. Lastly, Dewey argued that education should not be solely about preparing for the future. Education focus on the importance of living in the present.

    Maria Montessori

    Maria Montessori lived from 1870 to 1952. In a manner similar to Froebel, she believed in the importance of the senses in cultivating the independence of the child. She agreed with Dewey that children have a natural aim to learn. In her book, “The Secret of Childhood,” she wrote, “When a new being comes into existence, it contains within itself mysterious guiding principles, which will be the source of its work, character, and adaptation to its surroundings.” In some ways, her ideas strayed from those of other theorists 2. Froebel’s kindergarten engaged children in group learning and provided materials for imaginative use versus practical use. Dewey believed that fostering the imagination and social relationships should precede the expansion of the intellect. Montessori argued that only by developing the intellect can the imagination and social relationships emerge. She emphasized freedom within a structured environment.

    Jean Piaget

    Jean Piaget was born in 1896. His theory of cognitive development focuses on stages of growth and on a child’s ability to acquire knowledge gradually 16. Piaget focused on intellectual development 1. He, too, believed that children develop because of their personal interactions. He believed children use “schemas” to acquire information. WebMD, in the article “Piaget Stages of Development,” calls these stages “a blueprint” for normal intellectual development 1. The stages include sensorimotor (birth through 18 to 24 months), preoperational (18 to 24 months through age 7), concrete operational (7 to 12), and formal operational (adolescence through adulthood). The sensorimotor stage is a time of experimentation and physical interactions with one’s environment. During the preoperational stage, children develop language skills, memory and imagination. During the concrete operational stage, logical reasoning and an awareness of external events are the key markers of this phase. In the formal operational stage, children engage with abstract concepts such as justice.

    Erik Erikson

    Erik Erikson, who lived from 1902 through 1994, argued that the individual develops on three levels at the same time: biological, social and psychological. Learning-Theories.com explains, “Erikson’s psychosocial theory of development considers the impact of external factors, parents and society on personality development from childhood to adulthood. ” Erikson named five stages of human development through age 18 but suggested additional stages of growth that continue into adulthood 16. The childhood stages of development focus on identity formation and include the following: trust versus mistrust, autonomy versus shame and doubt, initiative versus guilt, industry (competence) versus inferiority and identity versus confusion 1. He believed that all people pass through these stages as they grow into adults, as they learn about the world and as they form their personalities.

    About New Morning School – New Morning School

    Based on the work of Jean Piaget

    New Morning School’s curriculum and philosophy are influenced by the work of Swiss psychologist and philosopher Jean Piaget. Piaget developed the fields of developmental psychology and cognitive theory and spent countless hours observing children.
     
    Spend time reading more about Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development. The assumptions about the mental development of children and the manner in which they build their understanding of the world is at the very heart of our curriculum.

    Head of School Elaine Kennedy outlines how Piaget’s theory translates into practice at New Morning School. You might also explore why Time Magazine named Jean Piaget one of the 100 Most Important People of the 20th Century or learn more about the connection between the work of Jean Piaget and that of his contemporary, Maria Montessori.


    How does Piaget differ from Montessori?

    Parents familiar with a Montessori system of education will notice many similarities in the New Morning School approach, including:

    • Hands-on activities
    • Learning focused on creating mental models, not memorizing facts
    • Multiple means of assessing learning
    • Incorporating students’ prior knowledge into the curriculum

    There are a number of differences between a Piagetian approach to education and a Montessori approach; however, both Jean Piaget and Maria Montessori were constructivists. (Read this article about constructivism for a more complete understanding of constructivism, especially as it relates to learning.)   In his article entitled Jean Piaget’s Genetic Epistemology: Appreciate and Critique, Clemson University Professor Robert L. Campbell points out that:   The experimental nursery school in Geneva, La Maison des Petits, where Piaget carried out his first studies of children in the 1920s, was a modified Montessori institution, and Piaget was for a number of years the head of the Swiss Montessori Society (see Rita Kramer, Maria Montessori: A biography, New York: G. P. Putnam’s Sons, 1976, pp. 311, 321, 326). Piaget seems to have grown dissatisfied with Montessori’s lack of theoretical rigor in psychology, but disgust with her long and ultimately futile collaboration with the Mussolini regime in Italy (1922-1934) may have played a more decisive role…   …In fact, an article by David Elkind, written in 1967 when both thinkers were getting renewed interest in the United States (Piaget and Montessori, Harvard Educational Review, 37,535-546) correctly identifies several points of agreement without showing any awareness of Piaget’s role in the Montessori movement.

    Piaget at New Morning School

    The following is a letter written for the Alumni News by New Morning School Head of School, Elaine Kennedy.


    You have to spill a little milk to grow…

    Dear Parents,

    This fall parents at New Morning have been learning about Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist who researched the cognitive growth of children.

    Piaget writes, “The goal of intellectual education is not to know how to repeat or retain ready-made truths. (A truth that is parroted is only a half-truth.) It is learning to master the truth by oneself at the risk of losing a lot of time and going through all the roundabout ways that are inherent in real activity.”

    What’s important about what Piaget said is that true discovery of knowledge is not clean, doesn’t proceed in a straight line, and is not necessarily quiet. It involves trial and error, interfacing with peers, sometimes being extremely focused, while other times not. In sum, real learning is a bit messy. When children discover something of their own by playing with the blocks, they may go through three or four iterations or even days of discovery before beginning to understand that two little blocks are the same size as a bigger block. Remember, in pre-operational children (ages two through seven) conservation of volume/size is not yet in place. We could tell a four-year-old that the two blocks are the same as the big block and they could parrot back that two blocks equal a larger block, but real understanding only comes through student discovery.

    Two children in the elementary room are weighing pumpkins on a balance scale, the goal being to arrange the pumpkins in order of weight. A teacher might enrich this environment by using plastic pumpkins and real pumpkins of different sizes. Then a child couldn’t just surmise that if he put them in order from smallest to largest, that they would also be in order by weight. Within the elementary classroom you would see children use a variety of approaches to this problem, based on their developmental levels. As adults we would weigh pumpkins against each other to put them in order of weight. Older elementary children might use this approach, but younger children, by trial and error, would approach it in different, sometimes incorrect ways.

    What do we do as adults? Do we observe and guide with questions or do we show a child how to do it step by step? If you show a child, you have robbed from her the joy and permanence of her own discovery.

    Piaget writes, “Every time we teach a child something, we keep him from inventing it himself. On the other hand, that which we allow him to discover for himself will remain with him visible for the rest of his life.”

    The process is the same at the middle school level. Our science teacher might ask students to construct an experiment. Some will easily make a hypothesis and keep all but one variable constant (formal operational thought, age 11+) while others may need much trial and error and growing time to do this. The teacher can ask questions and make suggestions, but the best thing she could do would be to let a student do his experiment where variables are not held constant. Through the course of the experiment, he might reach that “ah-ha” stage where he understands how he should have done it or may do it the next time.

    Does teaching him how to set up an experiment and holding his hand every step of the way result in powerful learning?

    – No.

    Does trial and error, false starts, and eventual success lead to real, lasting discovery?

    – You know the answer.

    Learning is not neat and clean and efficient as you or I might like it to be. Children need to experiment and figure if out for themselves, though it takes longer and is a bit “messy.”

    Next time you’re feeling uncomfortable about a learning situation and asking yourself things like:

    • “Are the kids playing too long in the block area?”
    • “Are the kids writing the play making too little progress?”
    • “Wouldn’t it be simpler in middle school if they gave up those silly fraction pieces and just had the students learn it with paper and pencil?”

    Think of Piaget. You know the answer to the questions. Let me know what you think.

    DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHILD’S INTELLIGENCE ACCORDING TO THE SYSTEM OF MARIA MONTESSORI

    The pedagogical system of Maria Montessori is widely known and has been used in the practice of education all over the world for more than 100 years. This article discusses the process of developing the intellect of a child of 6~7 years old by means of this system, determines the principles, conditions and mechanism of this process, substantiates the relevance of Montessori pedagogy approaches to solving the issues of developing the intellect of children.

    © Sevastyanova I. N 2008

    Montessori’s pedagogical system is widely-spread and has been used in the practice of education all over the world for more then 100 years. The process of the development of the child’s intellect at the age of 6 or 7 years old is under the view in this article. The technique, conditions and principles of this process are based on the urgency of Montessori’s pedagogy. They are necessary for the development of the children’s intellect by this pedagogical system.

    The development of the intellect of a child of 6-7 years old is one of the most important tasks facing the teacher. It acquires particular relevance in modern conditions, when the need to form in students such qualities of mind as independence, independence, speed, flexibility, creative thinking, which is reflected in the concept of education development, comes to the fore. That is, speaking of intelligence in the broadest sense of the word, we will mean not only the ability of a person to remember and reproduce information received from the outside, but also such qualities as the ability to independently set mental tasks, look for ways and means of solving them, navigate in the flow of information, independently extract, produce new knowledge (or subjectively new), make decisions, adjust their actions in an adequately changing situation.

    To date, two main theories of learning have developed in pedagogical science, illustrating in practice different approaches to the problem of intelligence development: associative and active. The associative theory underlies explanatory and illustrative forms of education, which mainly contribute to the development of the reproducing qualities of thinking and the tendency to the mechanical accumulation of knowledge perceived from the outside. Realizing the limitations of explanatory and illustrative teaching, modern pedagogical science orients teachers to the formation of the mental functions of students (studies by L. S. Vygotsky, N. A. Menchinskaya, L. V. Zankov, V. F. Shatalov, etc.).

    Associative theories are opposed by theories based on the activity approach. These include the theory of problem-based learning (A. M. Matyushkin, M. I. Makhmutov), ​​the theory of learning activity (V. V. Davydov, D. B. Elkonin), the theory of the phased formation of mental actions (P. Ya. Galperin , N. F. Talyzina). We have the opportunity to attribute the technology of mental education, implemented in the pedagogical system of M. Montessori, to the theories of the activity approach to learning.

    After analyzing the works of M. Montessori, her students and followers, researchers of her pedagogical and philosophical work, we

    were able to determine her special understanding of the intellectual development of the individual, formulate the principles, conditions and mechanisms of this process, as well as analyze the possibilities of the pedagogical tools she offers.

    First of all, it should be noted that M. Montessori did not divide the upbringing of children into physical, moral, aesthetic and mental. Since the personality is integral and indivisible, upbringing is one thing. The center of the upbringing of children according to its system is the upbringing and development of the intellect. M. Montessori herself interprets the intellect as follows: “. .. it is a set of reflexive and associative, or reproductive, activities that allow consciousness to build itself by interacting with the environment” [1]. After analyzing the definition, we can highlight the main aspects that express the understanding by the author of this theory of the mechanisms of the intellectual development of the individual and, as a result, the possibilities of managing this process.

    First of all, it is necessary to note the intellectual goal, namely, the ability of consciousness to “build itself”, and as a result, the child achieves the maximum level of development of the potential inherent in him by nature. Montessori claims that each child is unique, as he carries within himself an individual, special, unique program. From birth, a person has an impulse – energy for the implementation of this program, just as the seed of an apple tree has the potential to become an apple tree, and the seed of wheat – wheat. Consequently, the first principle of mental education according to the M. Montessori system is the principle of individuality.

    An adult is not able to discern the potential inherent in a child, therefore any active influences during this period may turn out to be useless, and sometimes even harmful for a developing personality, as if we were trying to grow wheat from the seed of an apple tree. M. Montessori believes that, developing independently, the child himself draws from the environment what his internal program requires at the moment, you just need to give him the opportunity to make his choice.

    Montessori noted that children who study frontally within the framework of the class-lesson system using explanatory and illustrative methods are deprived of the opportunity to choose. Their activity is limited by the reproductive form, as well as regulated terms and selection of material, which leads to a leveling of the personality and inhibits the development of arbitrariness, cognitive activity and intelligence. As a result, M. Montessori came to the conclusion:

    The main condition for the normal intellectual development of a child is freedom. Freedom is the second principle of mental education according to M. Montessori’s system.

    Yu. I. Fausek developed the interpretation of this principle of M. Montessori’s pedagogical system: “Not the child who is free who simply moves, but the one who has a reasonable goal in his actions, who has the ability to deploy and form his inner personality in an organized environment , he who himself can choose works for development and indulge in one work for a long time on his own impulse, attracted by an intellectual goal: he who, concentrating on objects, gets the opportunity to achieve choice, reasoning and research, working out by all this a force that pushes him to progress » [2].

    As a direct consequence of the freedom of the child, his activity develops. Passive perception by a student of other people’s words does not form intelligence. Only human activity makes it possible to independently act and make discoveries. The role of an adult is observation and timely creation of conditions for the current and future (proximate) development of the child. Therefore, the third principle of the development of intelligence according to the Montessori system is the student’s own activity.

    Encouraging children’s activity leads to the development in children of the quality of independence. Independence is a direct consequence of the principle of the activity of the child, as well as the first condition necessary for the full development of the intellect. “Exercises that set in motion intellectual mechanisms can only be performed in self-learning mode. It is impossible for another person, studying instead of us, to improve our abilities” [3].

    The consequence of the independence of children is their independence, which we define as the independence of opinions, judgments, ideas, and which is the second necessary condition for the intellectual development of the individual. Thus, manifesting itself as the necessary qualities and conditions for children’s activity, independence and independence gradually pass into the inner plane of the personality and are already formed as integral qualities of the student’s thinking.

    The third important condition for upbringing according to the Montessori system in general and mental upbringing in particular is the availability of means that stimulate the intellectual development of the personality in the immediate environment of the child.

    M. Montessori writes: “The basis of intellectual activity in relation to the outside world is sensations” [4]. It is through

    sensations in the process of the work of the sense organs that we perceive information that serves as the basis of our knowledge about the phenomena and processes of the surrounding world. Yu. I. Fausek, introducing the experience of M. Montessori in Russia, comes to the conclusion that “the beginning of intellectual construction lies in collecting facts and distinguishing them” [5].

    Therefore, we can conclude that the means of developing the intellect are the images of the environment that enter the human mind through perception. Therefore, the development of intelligence depends, firstly, on the quality and completeness of the information entering the consciousness, and secondly, on the capabilities of the organs of perception of a given individual.

    Since a person is able to distinguish things by their qualitative characteristics, such as size, shape, color, texture, weight, temperature, smell, taste, sound – all these characteristics should be presented for the perception of the child as the main material means of influencing his intellect . Acting with objects, the child exercises in identifying, distinguishing, comparing and contrasting these qualities, their gradation, seriation and classification.

    In order for all the above mental actions to become possible, it is necessary to train, develop and refine the sensory apparatus: the organs of perception and pathways, as well as the corresponding parts of the brain. And this is possible through repeated repetitions and exercises. Consequently, the fourth important condition for the implementation of the principles of mental education according to the Montessori system is the possibility of exercises and repetitions of actions and manipulations.

    But exercises and repetitions do more than just train the sensory apparatus. By manipulating an object, a person focuses his attention on one of its sides: gradation of color shades, thermal or kinesthetic sensations, etc. Deep concentration on an object contributes to the understanding of internal connections, dependencies – that is, understanding the nature of this thing. As a result, instead of mechanically memorizing other people’s thoughts, the child gets the opportunity to independently discover the world for himself. Independent discoveries of the child are a characteristic feature of learning according to the M. Montessori system. Therefore, as the fifth condition for intellectual development using the principles of M. Montessori, we note the possibility of deep concentration on the object and independent discoveries.

    M. Montessori notes that the external manifestation of a developed intellect is the speed of reaction. What is important is speed in reaction to a stimulus, in the association of ideas, in the ability to formulate solutions. Speed ​​is achieved, firstly, through exercises that contribute to the training of the sensory apparatus and pathways, as mentioned above; secondly, the presence of a system of order of internal impressions.

    Order is the sixth condition of intellectual development in M. Montessori’s system. The desire for order is the original tendency inherent in every person. Disordered knowledge, scattered facts do not form the intellect, as they do not provide an opportunity for independent conclusions, conclusions, and forecasting. Therefore, a hierarchy of knowledge about the facts of the surrounding world is necessary, which makes it possible to establish connections and dependencies, as well as for their operational use in the process of intellectual activity. M. Montessori writes: “There are reasons to believe that developing the mind means organizing images in the mind” [6].

    An external pattern is needed to form an internal system of order. The hierarchy of the qualities of things in the surrounding world, based on their perception with the help of human senses, is called upon to become such a model, an external standard of internal order. “Distinguishing, classifying, systematizing objects on the basis of an order firmly established in the mind is the mind and at the same time culture” [7].

    M. Montessori revealed that every child has an inner desire to establish order in his environment as a necessary means for him to form an internal order. In a certain time-limited age period, he shows an acute sensitivity to order – the “sensitive period”, which is confirmed by repeated observations of M. Montessori herself, her students and followers (Yu. I. Fausek and V. Taubman wrote about this in studies of the early 20th century .), modern research (Moscow Montessori Center, etc.) as well as our own practice and observations at the Montessori Child Development Center in Kirov.

    The seventh necessary condition for the correct functioning of the child’s intellect is the isolation of a certain feeling, the isolation of a stimulus. By isolating the feeling and stimulus, separating it from everything extraneous, insignificant, we give the child the opportunity to receive clear ideas in his mind. For example, if we aim to acquaint a child with the concept of length, then we use for this purpose objects that differ from each other only in length, all other qualities (material, color, texture, etc. ) must be the same. In order to give the child a clear idea of ​​an object, it is necessary to single out this object and give the developing intellect the opportunity to focus on it.

    The eighth important condition is called isolation of complexities. The principle of isolation of complexities says: in each exercise there should be only one didactic task. It’s bad when a child faces several tasks of equal complexity, but it’s even worse when there is no task at all. After all, joy, pleasure from a correctly solved problem is an integral characteristic of the method. In addition, the isolation of difficulties must be understood as the absence of elements that distract the student’s attention from solving the main problem and prevent the emergence of concentration.

    M. Montessori offers his own system of autodidactic materials as a tool for implementing these principles, which meets all the specified conditions. The term “autodidactic” means the purpose of these subjects for the independent individual work of the child and the heuristic development of his intellect, which do not need adult control. In other words, working with the material of M. Montessori, the student, without realizing it, develops his intellect, precisely those aspects and qualities that he most needs at the moment to implement his internal program.

    Montessori material is a “safe model of the world” containing, in Montessori’s own words, “a series of motivations for cultural activity.” K. E. Sumnitelny, a researcher of the philosophical and pedagogical heritage of M. Montessori, conditionally identifies the following characteristics of autodidactic Montessori materials [8]:

    1. The material is the key to gaining more extensive knowledge and expanding existing ideas. This determines the presence of a creative component in the content of education and the possibility of free creativity as such.

    2. Error control ensures the independence and independence of the subject, which contributes to the emergence of a sense of responsibility for the work done.

    3. Isolation of properties allows the child, with the help of one separate material, to work out only one aspect of the object of study, which allows you to deepen the nature of the study and achieve perfection in the chosen work.

    4. The scientific character implies that, by accumulating knowledge about the individual properties of the object of study, the child classifies these properties and creates a structure that he learns to sequentially schematize, revealing patterns and relationships.

    5. Functionality is defined as the readiness of the material for work and its recovery after work to its original position.

    6. Aesthetics means precise and colorful design and high quality natural materials. This allows you to make the material attractive, not only evoking pleasant emotions in the child, but also increasing the responsibility of the student for its preservation.

    In addition, there are additional characteristics that are a combination of the main ones:

    1. The autonomous nature of the material implies that after its presentation the student is able to build independent work due to the simple structure and the possibility of self-control (a combination of the principles of error control and isolation of complexity), which contributes to the growth of the child’s self-confidence and allows him to fully reveal his creative potential .

    2. The qualitative limitation is that the object of study must be presented to the child through parts in a holistic way and the number of parts in the description of this object must be limited [9].

    All material in the Montessori class is arranged in accordance with the general direction of the development of the human intellect: from understanding concrete things through establishing relationships and interdependencies, to abstract thinking. Each stage of development corresponds to its own special incentive – Montessori-material. The beginning of the development of any object or action occurs with direct external manipulation with it as a material object. In the future, external actions are gradually curtailed, transferred to the internal plane (the process of internalization takes place), the object itself is replaced by a symbol, and the action is replaced by an abstract concept.

    As an example from our own long-term experience of working with children according to the M. Montessori system, we could cite the development of mathematical operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of four-digit numbers, which are easily mastered by children of six and even five years of age on the “golden Montessori material” . This material consists of beads, connected in a special way in tens, hundreds, thousands. A subgroup of children easily and enthusiastically operates with them, performing these mathematical actions: putting them on a common tray, dividing by an arbitrary number of people, etc. In the future, the beads are replaced by numbers, actions by mathematical signs, the children move on to solving problems and examples on cards, with this without memorizing a single rule, simply realizing the inner meaning of the actions performed.

    Thus, we can establish an undoubted, in our opinion, connection between the methodology for the development of intelligence developed by M. Montessori and the theory of the gradual formation of mental actions by P. Ya. Galperin, N. F. Talyzina and others. This connection lies in the direction of the vector the process of cognition-understanding from the concrete to the abstract, in the development of abstract concepts, starting with the objective perception of an object in the process of independent activity.

    The difference is, in our opinion, that the application of the method of P. Ya. as well as the different pace of the internalization process for all students in the class. In the pedagogical system of M. Montessori, learning has an individualized nature of free work, not limited by time frames, where the subject development of activity by one child can be significantly delayed from the formation of internal mental actions, which makes it possible to exercise and improve in activity as much as a given student needs for a natural formation of a conscious internal mode of action.

    K. E. Somnoyatny, exploring M. Montessori’s understanding of the dynamics of the development of thought processes, writes: “Thus, orientation is the initial stage of any study and allows the child to concentrate on the most relevant developmental stimuli for him at the moment and ensures the mental actions of the individual in environment. Research, as the main and most dynamic phase of the process of cognition, provides a transition from the simple to the complex, from the concrete to the abstract. Manipulation becomes an external manifestation of the research process, which makes it possible to understand the differences in qualities and properties and the potential of a particular didactic material” [10].

    Abstraction is defined by K. E. Somnitelny as the highest realization of the need to be independent of real things. Orienting, exploring, manipulating, the child accumulates information about the properties of real objects, and at a certain moment becomes ready to replace these objects with their abstract symbols.

    In accordance with the logic of this process, Maria Montessori has developed a mechanism for familiarizing the child with the objects of the surrounding world and formulates it in the form of a “three-step lesson” for introducing a new concept. First stu-

    stump – acquaintance with the object. Usually the child is offered three objects, this number may vary depending on the intellectual capabilities of the child. In our practice, there were children who were able to simultaneously perceive and memorize up to five concepts, and there was a child whose abilities were limited to just one subject. The teacher shows and names each of the presented objects in turn. The second stage is tentative-by-claim. The teacher names the concept – an abstract symbol of the object – and asks the child to show this object. The third stage is the level of self-abstraction. The teacher points to the object, the child names the concept.

    M. Montessori pedagogically instrumented the idea of ​​J. Piaget, according to which the intellectual development of an individual occurs in the process of the action of the subject on the object, during which the object undergoes transformation (movement, combination, etc.). J. Piaget believes that the source of knowledge lies not in subjects and not in objects, but in their interaction. The number of interactions brings the subject closer to an adequate, objective perception of the object. M. Montessori created an environment that includes materials that motivate children’s intellectual activity, and provided the child with the opportunity to transform and construct them in the course of their work for so long until the internal need for this activity is satisfied.

    Thus, we can conclude that the theoretical provisions of the pedagogical system of M. Montessori in the development of the intellect of a child of 6-7 years old are confirmed by the data of modern psychological and pedagogical research and have their own value for the development of modern methods of pedagogical practice.

    Holistic Pedagogy. Systems by Maria Montessori and Rudolf Steiner

    Concepture continues the story of the projects and schools of the “new pedagogy”. Today we will get acquainted and compare two approaches that have become widespread in the twentieth century. This is the Waldorf school, based on the ideas of Rudolf Steiner, and the pedagogical approach of Maria Montessori. Without becoming the dominant trend in pedagogy, both theories have had a certain impact on modernity.

    The general idea of ​​the beginning of the 20th century was to reformat pedagogy for the changed content and correlation of sciences. First of all, by the end of the 19th century, psychiatry and experimental psychology were formed, then psychoanalysis.

    The humanities justified their autonomy from natural science models, significant changes occurred with social institutions and technologies. Therefore, the idea of ​​“proportionality of pedagogical requirements to the student (and society)” turned out to be very relevant, because the classical Prussian and Anglo-American approaches (established more than three centuries ago) seemed increasingly emasculated and harsh.

    The Steiner system, also called the Waldorf School, as well as the Montessori system, in response to the challenge of modernity, proposed an already familiar idea – to focus on the nature of the child and childhood, not to teach, but to direct its development. However, in order to guide the nature of the child, it must first be conceptually constructed and described.

    Steiner will do this based on the ideas of theosophy and esotericism (and to some extent transcendental philosophy), and Montessori on the basis of neurology, pediatrics and pedagogy (among the important authors for her are Johann Pestalozzi, Edouard Seguin, Jean Itard and Friedrich Froebel). However, subsequently Maria Montessori would move away from science, and starting from the 30s she would cooperate not only with psychologists, but also with the Theosophical Society.

    These and other approaches will declare war on violent methods and the predominance of purely intellectual development in teaching. In establishing their schools, they will try in practice to prove the superiority of their doctrines. By the end of the twentieth century, reformist pedagogy will continue to spread throughout the world.

    Pedocentric pedagogy: to help or to entice?

    Both approaches give great credit to both the child himself and his ability to learn. Learning itself is understood in different ways, as, in fact, the subject of such learning. The Waldorf school for the most part speaks of personality, of a complex combination of thought, feeling and will (Spirit, Soul, Body), while in the Montessori school a living organism is active, endowed with an “absorbent mind”.

    One of the frequent elements of the new pedagogy is its own theory of development: what stages and with what characteristics children go through. Alas, it could not do without free interpretations and biased assessments. The underdevelopment of developmental psychology, together with weak methodology, led to the fact that each such theory (including the theories of Steiner and Montessori) contained both accurate observations and incorrect generalizations.

    Waldorf school (Photo: elfarol-waldorf.org)

    For example, the stages according to Steiner were strictly determined by a seven-year cycle, which was very conditionally supported by actually observed patterns (at 7 years old – loss of milk teeth, 14 years old – hormonal changes). In fact, this is simply a sacred number, which is endowed with a special meaning in any European theosophy, to which Steiner belongs.

    Montessori has a six-year cycle with two periods of three years (fast and slow, conditionally corresponding to the accumulation of experience with the development of abilities and then their processing and comprehension). The cycles are based on the experience of Maria Montessori herself and are not subject to any criticism.

    However, unlike the Waldorf school, the Montessori system assumes individual differences in the speed of development, but in general, both systems poorly or do not explain a whole series of questions at all. Including “why should the periods be equal?” (psychoanalytic observations contradict this assumption), “why are there cycles?”, “what factors influence developmental delay?” etc.

    Another cornerstone is the issue of the teacher’s role. No one at that time seriously considered the idea of ​​abandoning the teacher as such. And in contrast to the pragmatic approach of Dewey, European schools remained in the position of knowledge, which for the most part belongs to the adult (ie, the teacher).

    Steiner dealt with this issue in the traditional way, inspired by the example of spirit guides and gurus. In his opinion, a teacher should be an unconditional authority for a student, a person who not only teaches, but also inspires, is a friend and an example. The most important thing for a Waldorf teacher is the ability to captivate the child with the material, as well as recognize his talents. It is these elements (curiosity and creativity) that will allow you to develop a personality in all its manifestations.

    One teacher leads the entire class from beginning to end: from the first to the eighth grade, then some of the disciplines are taught by other teachers. On the one hand, it is very convenient for children, especially if they have difficulty adapting to new people. On the other hand, this is a huge power and influence, which in fact bind each student to the teacher for life (which complicates his growing up and separation, and in some cases can make him a hostage to other people’s values ​​and ideas).

    Montessori Pedagogy, on the contrary, paying great attention to the preparation of a Montessori teacher, will leave him with purely service, auxiliary functions in the process of teaching a child. Since the system’s central thesis is “ Children are taught by what surrounds them ”, then the teacher turns out to be only a part of a specially designed environment, or rather a guide through it. The activity and creativity of the child, which should not be interfered with, comes to the fore. An adult does not transfer his knowledge about the world, he only helps to obtain it, as well as analyze and systematize it.

    Until the child asks for help, the teacher only observes, but not passively, but trying to see the inclinations and level of the child’s abilities (in order to offer him didactic material of suitable complexity). The ethics of communication with the pupil are spelled out in some detail here: communication at the same level (sitting on the floor or squatting next to him), the obligation to answer a request, respect for an error, mild stimulation to the unmastered, lack of criticism.

    Rejecting the policy of prohibitions and coercion, both systems tried to thoughtfully work out the question of how to create conditions in which prohibition is not needed, and coercion is unnecessary.

    The Montessori system: collaboration and “prepared environment”

    Already the theories of Lamarck and Darwin drew the attention of all natural scientists to environmental factors, and at the turn of the century “environment” (or “umwelt”) becomes an important concept not only for biologists (like Haeckel and Uexkül), but also for doctors (especially in the field of prevention, occupational health and safety), psychologists and psychiatrists.

    Developing the already existing ideas about ontogeny, Maria Montessori comes to the conclusion that the source of child development is innate sensitivity to the environment (“absorbing mind”), and the main factor influencing this process is the objective environment surrounding the child.

    Under the “absorbent mind” she understood the ability of children to unconsciously and easily adopt the basic elements of the environment (language, culture, habits and attitudes). Mirror neurons will only be discovered at 1992, however, systematic observations of children and young mammals repeatedly confirmed the thesis that many elements of behavior are acquired very quickly, as if bypassing all the usual (mediated) forms of learning. Montessori summarizes this experience in the idea – “ impressions teach and shape consciousness “.

    This mechanism works especially clearly in the first six years of life, which is why education should begin at birth, but take place not according to the patterns of adults, but according to the laws of the world – through the environment. Therefore, the task of adults is to create a special environment in interaction with which the child will develop as efficiently as possible. This is the “prepared environment”.

    The environment also includes other people who, according to Montessori, unnecessarily impose their ideas on the child, thereby undermining his independence and the natural course of development. Therefore, the teacher takes the position of non-intervention and help on request, while the learning itself takes place through the personal impressions and discoveries of the child.

    “Neither philosophers nor scientists are able to invent and impose on us this or that method of teaching. Only nature, which has established its own laws and laid certain developmental needs in man, can dictate to us such teaching methods that will have a very specific goal – the fulfillment of vital needs and laws. Only the child himself can reveal these laws and these needs – by his spontaneous reactions, by his successes. <…> We will have to learn from him and help him in every way we can.” Maria Montessori

    Freedom turns out to be an important category in this system, although it is freedom within established boundaries: the child is free to choose the occupation, rhythm and nature of work, he can move around the classroom and organize the space (arranging tables, chairs), materials must be accessible to the eye and hand.

    Despite the rather democratic style of interaction, in Montessori classes usually each material / manual exists in one copy, stimulating the child to develop social behavior in relation to others. At the same time, some requirements in this system exist and must be strictly observed.

    First of all, this is the safety of others, as well as a number of work rules – for example, the mandatory return of materials to the place, strictly individual work (if the material is not intended for group work), during which the other child can only observe. Also, quite often in such groups there are no active and role-playing games, too creative handling of didactic materials is not encouraged (it is required to interact with them according to the rules).

    The first Montessori school will appear in Rome at 1907 year. Today, children’s groups with a similar approach exist in many countries, and there are special schools. By the way, despite a number of discrepancies, the system of Maria Montessori was highly appreciated and financially supported by Jean Piaget and Sigmund Freud. Anna Freud became one of the popularizers of the approach, and the phrase is attributed to the founder of psychoanalysis: “ Where Montessori is, I am not needed “.

    The Waldorf-Steiner system: the development of the essence of man

    The ideas of Rudolf Steiner have always extended to a wider range of topics than just pedagogy. Breaking off his relationship with part of the theosophical movement, Steiner called his theory “anthroposophy”, the purpose of which he considered the combination of the supersensible and the scientific. This teaching is focused on ensuring that each person recognizes his inner abilities (and not just abilities, but connecting him with the highest spiritual knowledge), which will allow all mankind to find peace and harmony.

    Hence it is quite logical that the school becomes for him a place for the development of the personality as a whole, and not just its intellectual or practical skills. In Steiner’s system, a person goes through a whole series of formations or even births: first, a physical body arises, at 7 years old – an etheric body, at 14 years old – an astral body, and by the age of 21 he has an I (immortal essence), which completes the learning process and opens self-development .

    “You can achieve something only if you constantly give yourself over and over again to one completely definite thought, if you make it completely your own. This thought is: “I must do everything for the development of my soul and spirit; but I will wait quite calmly until the higher powers find me worthy of a certain enlightenment. ” If this thought becomes so powerful in a person that it becomes a feature of his character, then he is on the right path. Rudolf Steiner

    These ideas have developed into a rather specific system in practice. The Waldorf School was conceived as a place in which the child will learn from childhood to perceive himself as the center of the universe, but on an equal footing with other people. Therefore, despite the high importance of the teacher, the educational process itself is focused on supporting the desire and ability of the child to independently implement their ideas and ideas. Competition is not supported here, and there are no grades, as well as homework.

    The first such school appeared in 1919 in Stuttgart, and today there are about 1000 of them all over the world. In terms of subjects, a tangible emphasis is placed on speech (including the study of two foreign languages ​​from the first grades) and creativity. According to Steiner, one must first learn to listen attentively and enthusiastically, then to speak, and only then to write.

    True, it is worth noting that sometimes Waldorf teachers lisp and use an exorbitant number of diminutive suffixes, which, according to the latest scientific data, only makes it difficult to master speech (for comparison: Montessori teachers talk to any children as if they were adults). Creative development includes singing, drawing, dance, theater, playing musical instruments, eurythmy (a subject of harmonious movement that replaces gymnastics), as well as various types of needlework.

    Among the latter, much attention is paid to the creation of “Waldorf dolls”. A mandatory requirement for its creation is the natural proportions of the body (corresponding to the age of the person depicted by the doll) and natural materials. Making dolls for Waldorfs is a process close to mystical, which is why they are often given names, spoken of as if they were alive, and also claimed that “ plastic and other artificial materials steal the soul of .” However, a doll for a child is indeed an important object for learning about the world and self-knowledge, so the seriousness and thoroughness with which they approach its creation at school is not without meaning.

    A lot of time is also devoted to social interaction, especially in celebrating holidays, birthdays, end of term. The classical Waldorf school did not have a director, and many issues were resolved jointly by teachers, children and parents. Actually, parent meetings are a phenomenon that came from here.

    Another unusual feature is the study of educational material in “epochs”, i.e. within 3-4 weeks all subjects are more or less devoted to one topic (“ancient Rome”, “engineers”, “native flora and fauna” etc.), which allows you to get used to the material and not waste energy switching from one topic to another. In fact, interdisciplinary and cyclical nature (return to the same material, but at a new level of complexity) is widely used throughout the course. In addition, textbooks are not used in the lower grades: each child has his own workbook, which turns into a personal summary that reflects experience and impressions.

    The method of “spiritual economy” is designed to give the child only the material that he is ready to handle without internal resistance. Therefore, they begin to study the exact sciences much later than in a regular high school, however, this also applies to many other things (for example, reading is not taught here from the first grade). Premature intellectual development is considered one of the roots of many problems of modern man.

    Of course, this leads to the fact that training in a Waldorf school is ideally 12 years or more, and when transferring to another school, there are many difficulties. In addition, the special atmosphere in the school is strongly divorced from reality, which sometimes produces a feeling of sectarianism. True, it is worth remembering that escapism or adaptation to the surrounding realities is to a greater extent the choice of the subject, and not parents, school and conditions.

    Comparative characteristics and criticism of approaches

    It is not only difficult to talk about the effectiveness of these models (it depends on specific people and realities), but it is also unnecessary, since both refuse from the generally accepted measures of success. Rather, it makes sense to talk about the essence of ideas and their consequences. However, one should not forget about practice. Ultimately, without a trained teacher, all this will remain at the level of good wishes.

    Good advice is, of course, good, but wise things are generally not so lacking in culture (you will find this if you start reading books). But no one has yet solved the problem with motivation: neither how to be good, nor how to start acting according to other people’s advice. And here, in fact, we can see an important substantive aspect: the requirements of Steiner and Montessori are very difficult to implement, it is necessary to somehow get past the Scylla of formalism and the Charybdis of obsession. As it is easy to see, each of the systems is characterized by a bias in one direction.

    In fact, Montessori pedagogy, despite its thoughtful ethics, still tends towards objectivism. The very idea “environment determines formation” is a view through the prism of cause-and-effect relationships (and not semantic ones), giving the child as an object (for indirect influence through a “prepared environment”). In extreme, albeit rare cases, this gives a formalist teacher who relies on an allowance – they say, it will teach everything, and I am eliminated (after I have explained everything).

    However, the desire to explore the world cannot be obtained from biological coercion to adapt, it can only be infected by other people. In other words, a Montessori teacher still has to want something a little (probably, first of all, development to some kind of norms) from a child. It is this part that is weakly expressed in theory, but is a significant element of the effectiveness of the method.

    The Waldorf school tends to the other extreme. Considering the child as a subject and a future full-fledged personality, this pedagogy relies too much on suggestion. Suggestion – both on a conscious and unconscious level – is what allows the child to lean on the authority of the teacher and move in a certain direction. Such a transfer of strong feelings and affections from important people to the teacher in the long term gives rise to all sorts of difficulties: from an unconscious desire to please him in every possible way to a conscious rebellion.

    Without suggestion and transfer it is impossible to learn: both children and adults are arranged in such a way that they will not take anything from someone who is not interested at all. However, I emphasize once again: suggestion includes the unconscious, and therefore it is difficult to control it. And it is even more difficult to correct its flaws if it has been going on for years. Surely, many could learn something from Steiner, but adopting all his imaginary constructions about the world is somehow too much. This is indeed sectarianism, because it is the one who, without a shadow of a doubt, perceives someone else’s transference (I am worthy of this, I am an authority), is usually called a guru. That’s just it, whatever one may say, the suppression of the subject with his desires.

And this means, among other things, allowing him sometimes not to be a person, to admit that he does not want to develop and become happy, to resolve not only mistakes, but also perseverance in them. And this is quite difficult, since teachers sooner or later cease to doubt whether they are good and what it consists of.

    This critique applies mainly to specific cases, but theory sets the trend. And yet, children who have passed the Montessori children’s groups or the Waldorf school have a very important bonus. And these are by no means some miraculous results of a prepared environment or a captivating teacher’s story. Everything is somewhat simpler: those children whose parents think about their future (and this is already confirmation of the desirability of these children) often get into such institutions.

    Plus, the credit of trust given to the child by the teachers of these schools. A more balanced contingent, trust, and an element of parental recognition/care is what saves the child from a significant amount of social trauma and deformity. Regardless of what the child spends this saved energy on, he already has an advantage. What is especially noticeable to those who went through a regular high school (especially in its not the best periods).

    Yes, sometimes the choice between innovative pedagogies and regular school is very similar to the choice between a happier or more successful future for a child. And yet this perspective is wrong, because ultimately the fate of a person is in his own hands. If you wish, you can suffer in paradise, or you can find your pluses in a post-apocalyptic existence.

    In addition, for a person who has retained the desire to learn, any exams are only a matter of time. Therefore, the task of parents and education should be more modest: to give place to individual desire, to teach how to learn and take responsibility for one’s life. Even adaptation is already an unnecessary requirement, because a person is an extremely variable creature.

    Finally, it is interesting to note that modern trends in education draw from both sources to one degree or another. On the one hand, virtual simulation is recognized as very promising, and this is still the same “prepared environment” Montessori.

    On the other hand, with the advent of diversity in education, there is an increasing demand for those who will not only teach, but help with motivation and choice (where, what and how to study) – tutors. And the tutor, who builds the educational trajectory, is quite similar to the Waldorf teacher, who is not interested in the exam and the red cardboard. After all, education should serve the individual, and not vice versa.

    Maria Montessori Method

    Montessori is the true pride of Italy, the first woman doctor in the country, who was also nominated for the Nobel Prize three times. She devoted her whole life to the free and natural development of children, and tens of thousands of her followers still work in teacher training colleges and universities around the world, promoting and implementing her views. At 189In the year 6, a graduate of the Faculty of Medicine, Maria Montessori, began working as a doctor’s assistant in a university clinic. There she first encountered mentally retarded children who were in an empty room, without toys, books and any human interaction. Montessori began to bring them the simplest items: boxes, shreds – and the progress in the behavior of children exceeded all her expectations. This was the starting point of Montessori pedagogy: children (both sick and healthy) need a developing environment that would help them comprehend the world around them. Montessori began to study works on pedagogy, psychology, anthropology, talked a lot with Jean Piaget, Anna Freud, observed, experimented, and thought. At 19In 00, she became the director of a Roman school for children with developmental delays and created a special developmental environment in it.

    The results of the work of this school stunned the commission of the Italian Ministry of Education, which visited it three months later: children with developmental disabilities almost caught up with their healthy peers! Montessori methods have been given the green light. In January 1907, the first Montessori school began its work – the famous Orphanage in the Roman suburb of San Lorenzo. In 1929In the same year, together with her son Montessori, she organized the International Montessori Association (AMI), which is still active today.

    Now the world is experiencing a real boom, this is one of the most popular methods of developing children: for example, in the United States, studying at Montessori is a good help for career growth. There are Montessori schools and kindergartens in almost all countries of the world, from Italy to New Zealand. There are many of them today in Russia.

    Tragedy for Maria Montessori was that she was forced to send her own son to a boarding school: marriage with his father did not take place, and Maria was afraid of condemnation by the Catholic Church. However, having become a young man, Mario recognized his real mother, became her close friend, comrade-in-arms and successor to her work.

    A distinctive feature of the Montessori method (unlike the Doman method, for example) is the complete freedom of the child. He chooses what, how and to what extent he does. For promoting complete freedom, this technique was banned both in Russia during the time of Stalin, and in her homeland under the Mussolini regime. Montessori said: unfold a colorful picture of the world in front of the baby, and when the first confusion passes, he himself will find what interests him. But this “beautiful freedom” also turns out to be the source of many problems that Montessori children face.

    When choosing this method, be prepared for the fact that your child will not accept school rules: after all, he is used to choosing whether to study mathematics or reading. At school, he will not have such a choice, and he will not be able to manage his time the way he did before.

    It should be noted that Maria Montessori developed her method for children over three years old, but her followers “lowered” the method for a year and recommend starting its use from two to two and a half years.

    Chapter 6. Piaget’s theory of cognitive development

    Biographical
    details

    AT
    psychology, there are not many theorists,
    who played such an important
    role as Jean Piaget (1896-1980), who created
    most comprehensive and persuasive
    theory of intellectual development.

    Piaget
    was born in Neuchâtel, a small Swiss
    town, in
    the university where his father taught
    medieval history.
    Piaget (Piaget, 1952) described his father as
    serious and methodical thinker.
    His mother, on the contrary, was very emotional,
    and her behavior created tension
    within the family. Piaget adopted his father’s love
    to science and found salvation from family
    conflicts
    in solitary explorations.

    Piaget
    showed great promise from an early age
    like a scientist. At 10 years old
    age, he published an article about
    albino sparrow observed
    in the park. The boy was still in high school.
    school, when
    of his research on mollusks received
    an invitation to meet
    with foreign colleagues and offer
    become a museum curator
    — which he rejected because of his
    age.

    AT
    At the age of 15, Piaget survived
    intellectual crisis when
    realized that his religious and philosophical
    beliefs are lacking
    scientific basis. So he decided to find
    path that allows
    combine philosophy and science. He is a lot
    read and presented his new
    ideas in writing, although its
    essays were intended
    for him alone. These searches did not take
    all his time – when Piaget was 21 years old,
    he managed to get his doctorate
    in natural
    sciences,
    but
    sometimes his broader research
    brought
    him into a state of confusion and
    exhaustion. Finally at 23
    year, he came up with a plan. First he
    will do scientific research in children’s
    psychology, having studied the development of mental
    abilities.
    And then uses the received data
    to respond to broader
    questions in the field of epistemology –
    philosophical discipline,
    concerning the origin of knowledge. He
    called this new direction
    “genetic epistemology” (Ginsburg &
    Opper 1988, p.
    2-3; Piaget, 1952, p. 239-244).

    Piaget
    decided to study children in 1920 when he worked
    in Binet’s laboratory
    in Paris. There he was assigned to develop
    test of children’s intelligence.
    At first this work seemed boring;
    he wasn’t too interested
    evaluate children’s answers as correct or
    incorrect, but
    this requires intelligence testing.
    But soon Piaget began to show
    interest in the answers of younger children
    age, especially to their wrong answers.
    He found that their mistakes follow
    some sustainable
    pattern that suggested
    that their thinking
    may have their own unique
    peculiarities. Perhaps small children
    Piaget reasoned, not “sillier” than children
    senior
    age or adults, but just think
    completely different
    (Ginsburg & Opper,
    1938, p. 3).

    To
    learn more about the ideas of children, Piaget
    abandoned standardized
    tests that directed reactions
    children in “artificial
    the course of established questions and answers”,
    and developed
    more free clinical interview,
    which “contributed
    flow of spontaneous tendencies” (Piaget, 1926,
    R. four). He also held
    many hours watching spontaneous
    children’s activity. The purpose of these
    observation was to
    refrain from own adults
    thinking biases
    children and learn more
    from the children themselves.

    Being
    in Paris, Piaget published two
    research work based
    on his new approach, but for the most part
    these new
    research he did at the institute
    Rousseau in Geneva, where
    settled in
    1921
    d. He interviewed mainly
    children
    between the ages of 4 and 12 and found that
    young children,
    until about 7 years old, really meditate
    qualitatively
    otherwise about dreams, moral standards
    and many other issues.

    AT
    1925 Piaget’s first child was born,
    daughter Jacqueline, – an event,
    which initiated a series of important
    cognitive research
    infant behavior. Piaget and his wife
    Valentina Chatenay had a very
    careful observations of Jacqueline’s behavior,
    as well as her other two children, Lucienne
    and Laurent.

    Beginning
    around 1940, Piaget returned to the study
    children as well as teenagers, but changed
    focus of their research. Whereas
    his early research concerned such
    the way dreams, moral
    behavior and other issues related to
    everyday
    interests of the child, his new research
    were focused
    on the child’s understanding of mathematics
    and scientific concepts is a problem that
    dominated his work until the end of his
    life
    (Ginsburg & Orper, 1988, pp. 15-16).

    AT
    1950s Piaget finally turned to
    philosophical questions in
    epistemology, while continuing at the same time
    study cognitive development
    children. Here we will only briefly touch
    epistemological
    Piaget’s theories; our task will be
    get some
    insight into his theory of development.

    Attitude
    psychologists to Piaget’s research
    changed over time. His first
    work attracted the attention of psychologists
    in many parts of the world. However, after
    initial enthusiasm
    interest in Piaget waned, especially
    in the United States.
    On the one hand, it was difficult for psychologists
    understand his theoretical position.
    They also objected to his methodology.
    Piaget sometimes
    changed his questions during the interview,
    if you thought it was
    can help him understand thinking
    specific child; similar
    actions, many psychologists have pointed out,
    violate the canon of the standardized
    interview. Piaget also ignored such
    questions like messages about their sizes
    samples and statistical
    processing results. Apparently he
    considered such questions
    less important than the content
    detailed examples of thinking
    children (Flavell, 1963, r. 10-11, 431; Ginsburg & Orper,
    1988
    R. 6).

    AT
    in general, throughout the professional
    Piaget’s career
    studies suffered from the same
    methodological shortcomings,
    but the 1960s were notable
    revival of interest
    to his work. Psychologists have begun to realize
    what is his theory
    complex and superficially documented
    she was,
    is of great importance. Today hardly
    Is there at least one
    study of children’s thinking, where not
    there would be references to work
    Piaget.

    Overview
    theory

    Although
    focus of Piaget’s research
    changed over time,
    each part contributed to a single,
    unified theory
    stages. The most common stages, or
    periods are listed in Table.
    6.1.

    Before
    than we will consider these stages in detail,
    it is important to note two
    theoretical moment. First, Piaget
    admitted that children
    go through different stages
    pace, and therefore gave
    little value for age limits,
    associated with them. However, he
    claimed that children go from one
    stage to another in unchanged
    sequences in the same
    okay.

    Secondly,
    when we discuss the stages, it is important
    remember the general
    Piaget’s view of the nature of change in
    the course of development. Because he
    postulated an unchanging sequence
    stages, some scientists
    (e.g. Bandura & McDonald, 1963) suggested that
    what he was
    proponent of the maturation theory. He them
    was not. Proponents of this theory
    believe that the sequence of stages
    laid down in the genes and what stages
    disclosed according to
    internal chart. But Piaget
    did not consider that its stages are genetically
    conditioned. They only reflect
    ever more universal ways of thinking.
    Children constantly
    explore the environment, manipulate it and
    trying to comprehend it, and in the process
    they are actively designing new
    and more complex structures
    allowing contact with the environment
    (Kohlberg, 1968).

    table
    6.1. General periods of development

    Period
    I Sensorimotor
    intelligence (birth -2
    of the year). Toddlers build their own
    scheme
    physical activities such as sucking,
    grasping
    and punching to set
    contact
    with the surrounding world.

    Period
    II Preoperative
    thinking (2 years – 7 years). Children
    learning to think—to use symbols
    and internal images – but their thinking
    not systematic or logical. It
    very different from the way adults think.

    Period
    III Specific
    operations (7-11 years). Children take over
    ability to think systematically
    but only if
    can be linked to specific objects
    and action.

    Period
    IV Formal
    operations (11 years – maturity). Young
    people master the ability
    think
    systematically in a purely abstract and
    hypothetical key.

    Piaget
    still used biological
    concepts, but only in limited
    limits. He noted that babies
    inherit reflexes,
    for example sucking. Reflexes are important
    in the first month of life, but
    after that they have to develop
    much less impact.

    Except
    Moreover, Piaget sometimes characterized
    kids activity with point
    view of biological tendencies that
    found in everyone
    organisms. These trends are
    assimilation, accommodation
    and organization. Assimilation means
    assimilation, like
    the one that takes place while eating
    or digestion of food.
    In the intellectual realm, we must
    assimilate objects
    or information into their cognitive
    structures. For example,
    adults assimilate information by reading
    books. Long before
    this kid might try to assimilate
    object by grabbing it
    and trying to include it in your scheme
    grasping.

    Some
    objects do not match
    existing structures, so we
    must be produced in our structures
    accommodation, or change. For example,
    little girl can
    discover what you can handle
    cube, only preliminary
    removing some obstacle. way
    of such accommodations, infants begin
    design ever more efficient
    and sophisticated means to implement
    contact with the world.

    Third
    trend – organization. For example,
    4 month old boy
    may have the ability to see
    on objects and grab them. Soon he
    will try to combine these two actions,
    grabbing those objects
    which he is looking at. At the level of more
    intellectual behavior we
    building
    theories. Apparently we’re constantly trying
    organize your
    ideas into connected systems.

    Tem
    most, although Piaget believed that the stages
    not due to genetics
    code, but are constructed by the children themselves,
    he still considered the process
    design in terms of
    biological
    trends (Ginsburg & Orper, 1988, pp. 16-19).

    Piaget
    was not a supporter of the maturation theory,
    but to an even lesser extent
    he shared the positions of the supporters of the theory
    learning. He did not believe that thinking
    children
    formed through learning
    conducted by adults, or
    other influences from the environment. Children
    must interact with the environment
    to develop, but build new ones
    cognitive
    they are the structures, not the external environment.

    So
    Thus, development is not driven by internal
    ripening processes
    and not external training. It’s a process
    active design,
    in which children, through their own
    activities, build
    increasingly differentiated and
    comprehensive cognitive
    structures.

    Period
    I. Sensorimotor intelligence
    (birth
    – 2 years)

    First period
    Piaget’s development consists of six stages.

    Stage
    1 (birth – 1 month).
    1
    Using reflexes

    When
    Piaget talked about action structures
    baby, he used
    the term schema (eg Piaget, 1936a, p. 34).
    The schema can be
    any pattern of action that provides
    contact with the environment, such as staring,
    grabbing, punching or kicking.
    As already mentioned, although babies
    design their plans and
    subsequent structures through
    own actions, their first
    schemes are mostly
    inborn reflexes. Most
    a noticeable reflex is sucking;
    kids do
    automatic sucking movements
    whenever someone touches
    to their lips.

    reflexes
    suggest a certain passivity.
    The body does not show
    activity until something appears
    its stimulating.
    But Piaget showed that even such a reflex,
    like sucking, fast
    becomes part of a self-initiated
    baby activity. For example,
    when his son Laurent was only 2 days old,
    he started doing sucking
    movements when nothing was causing them.
    Because he did
    them between feedings, when not
    hungry, it seems
    sucked for the sake of the process of sucking.
    Piaget said that once
    we have some kind of scheme, we have
    there is also a need
    actively use it (p. 25-26.35).

    Except
    Moreover, if the kids are hungry, they are not
    in passive
    waiting for the mother to invest in them
    nipple mouth. When Laurent
    it was 3 days old, he began to look for the nipple, as
    only his lips touched
    any part of the mother’s breast. He
    felt with open mouth
    the whole breast until it finds the nipple (p. 26).

    kids
    are not limited to one breast sucking.
    Piaget’s children sucked
    linen, pillows, blankets, own
    fingers are all they are
    accidentally bumped into. According to the terminology
    Piaget, they assimilated all sorts of
    objects by embedding them in the sucking circuit
    (pp. 26,32,34).

    1
    Age limits for this period
    proposed by Ginzburg and Opper (Ginsburg
    & Orper, 1988) in their excellent review
    Piaget’s theories.

    Although
    in stage 1 the most noticeable action
    is assimilation,
    we can also discover the beginnings
    accommodation. For example,
    kids need to learn how to regulate
    movements of your head
    and lips in order to find the chest and
    nurse. Similar regulatory
    actions also show the beginnings
    organizations; kids organize their
    movements so that feeding becomes
    all
    smoother, faster and more efficient
    (p. 29-31.39).

    Stage
    2 (1-4 months). Primary circular
    reactions

    Circular
    the reaction takes place when the baby accidentally
    commits
    some new action and trying it
    repeat (Piaget, 1936a,
    R. 55). A prime example of this is
    thumb sucking. Hand randomly
    comes into contact with the mouth, and when it
    going down, baby
    trying to get her back to where she was.
    However, for some time
    babies can’t do it. They beat
    in the face
    hand, but they cannot grasp it; or
    they wave their hands frantically;
    or follow the hand with the mouth, but cannot
    grab her because
    their whole body, including their arms and hands,
    moves as one
    and in the same direction (p. 51-53). According to
    Piaget’s terminology
    they are incapable of accommodation,
    necessary in order to
    to assimilate the hand into a scheme
    sucking. After repeated
    failures they organize sucking and movements
    hands and master the technique of sucking
    finger.

    Like
    thumb sucking incident, most
    primary circular
    reactions includes the organization
    two previously independent
    bodily patterns or movements. For example,
    when little
    the girl repeatedly brings her hand closer to
    his face and look at
    her, she carries out the primary
    circular reaction. She coordinates
    looking at and moving the hand (p. 96-97).

    These
    circular reactions are good
    an illustration of
    What does Piaget mean by intellectual
    development as
    “construction process”. Baby
    actively “puts together”
    various movements and schemes. Important
    note the amount of work done
    work; baby can coordinate
    independent movements
    only after repeated failures.

    Stage
    3 (4-10 months). Secondary circular
    reactions

    Elements
    development at stage 2 are called primary
    circular
    reactions because they involve
    coordination of parts
    the child’s own body. Secondary
    circular reactions are
    the place where the baby discovers and
    reproduces something interesting
    an event outside one’s body (Piaget, 1936a, p.
    154). For example,
    one day Piaget’s daughter Lucien, lying in her
    crib, made
    leg movement that caused the swing
    dolls hanging from her
    over your head. She was looking at dolls
    a few seconds and then again
    pushed the back of the crib with her feet, again
    following the movement of the dolls. During
    for the next few days she repeated
    these actions are many
    times, kicking their feet and following the swing
    dolls, and often flooded
    laughing at the sight of moving dolls (p.
    157-159).

    Piaget
    sometimes called secondary circulars
    reactions “prolongation
    interesting impressions” (p. 196). He
    thought babies smiled
    and laugh while watching relatively new
    event (p. 197). At the same
    time they seem to enjoy
    own capabilities,
    the ability to trigger an event
    again and again

    Stage
    4 (10-12 months). Secondary
    diagrams

    On the
    stage 3 baby performs elementary
    action to achieve a certain
    result – for example, kicks legs,
    to cause the movement of suspended
    dolls. At stage 4 actions
    babies become more differentiated:
    he is learning
    coordinate two independent circuits
    to achieve a result.
    This new achievement is most notable,
    when babies encounter
    obstacles. For example, once Laurent
    wanted to grab a matchbox, but
    Piaget placed his hand
    is on his way. Laurent first tried
    ignore the hand; he
    I tried to go around it from the top and side. But
    he didn’t try to move
    her aside. When Piaget continued
    keep your hand in his way,
    Laurent resorted to ‘assault the box, waving
    hand, shaking and shaking his head from the side
    aside,” producing various
    “magic” gestures (1936a, p. 217). Finally,
    a few days later Laurent
    managed to remove the obstacle by pushing
    arm out of the way with punches,
    before he grabbed the boxes. So
    way, Laurent coordinated
    two independent schemes – drawing
    punches and grabs,
    – to reach the goal. one scheme,
    striking has become a means
    reaching the goal, grasping the box.

    Similar
    simple observations are very important for
    our understanding
    how children develop basic
    categories of perception
    space and time. We can not
    talk to kids
    and ask them how they perceive
    space and time,
    but we can see how these categories
    formed through their
    actions. When Laurent learned to move
    hand to take possession
    box, he showed understanding
    that some objects are
    in front of others in space and that
    some
    events must precede others
    in time (Ginsburg &
    Orper, 1988, p. 52).

    Stage
    5 (12-18 months). Tertiary circular
    reactions

    On the
    stage 3 babies do elementary
    action to achieve
    one result – an extension of the interesting
    impression.
    At stage 4, they make two independent
    actions to achieve the same result.
    Now, at stage 5, they are experimenting
    with various actions for the purpose of observation
    various results.

    For example,
    once Laurent showed interest in a new
    table. He hit
    on it several times with a fist, in some
    stronger in other cases
    more carefully in order to listen
    different sounds that
    produced his actions (Piaget, 1936a, p.
    270).

    Similar
    same way, one 12 month old boy
    sitting in the bathroom
    watching the water flow from the faucet. He
    put his hand under the faucet and noticed that
    water splashes in all directions. He
    repeated this action
    twice, prolonging an interesting spectacle
    (stage 3). But then he
    began to change the position of the hand, sometimes
    bringing it closer, and sometimes pushing it away
    from the faucet and watching the water splatter
    at different angles.
    He varied his actions to
    see what’s new
    dissimilar results will follow.

    Costs
    note that babies learn
    completely on your own
    without any hints from outside
    adults. They formed
    their schemes exclusively from innate
    curiosity to
    the surrounding world.

    Stage
    6 (18 months – 2 years). The beginning of thinking

    On the
    stage 5 children are little scientists,
    varying their actions
    and observing results. However, all
    they make their discoveries
    through direct physical
    actions. On the stage
    6 children before
    take action,
    Apparently, they are thinking through situations with support
    to internal representations.

    AT
    the most famous example of behavior
    Stage 6 involves Lucienne
    and a matchbox. Piaget put in
    chain boxes
    Lucienne tried to extract it immediately.
    She had two schemes
    to get a chain: flip
    boxes and stick your finger
    in the slot of the box. However, none of the schemes
    didn’t work. Then she
    did something interesting. She stopped
    their attempts and looked very
    closely at the gap. She then a few
    times in a row
    opened and closed her mouth, opening it with
    every time wider and wider
    (Piaget, 1936a, p. 338). After that she quickly
    opened the box
    and got the chain.

    Piaget
    (p. 344) noticed that at stage 5 the child,
    would probably get
    chain through a slow process
    trial and error, experimenting
    with different actions. Having stopped their
    trying and thinking about the situation, Lucienne
    was able to achieve much
    faster. She still didn’t speak the language well.
    so resorted to motor
    movements (his mouth) to symbolize
    action that
    she had to do.

    Progress
    children in stage 6 can also be seen in
    their attempts at imitation. Piaget drew
    note that for some
    time
    children are generally incapable of imitating
    new samples; they can
    only reproduce actions that
    are already present in them.
    behavioral repertoire. However, to
    stage 5 they can already produce
    the necessary accommodations to mimic
    new behavior
    through experimental method
    trial and error. But only
    at stage 6, children are capable of delayed
    imitations –
    imitations of currently absent
    patterns of behavior. For example, to
    16 month old
    Jacqueline came to visit a little boy,
    whom she used to
    saw several times and which in that
    day made a “terrible scandal. ” He
    squealed, trying to get out of the nursery
    arena, and
    pushed him back, stomping his feet. Jacqueline
    stood and stared in wonder
    never seen a scene like this before.
    The next day
    she herself squealed, being in her
    playpen, and tried to move
    him by lightly stamping his foot several times
    contract. Imitation of the whole
    scene was quite impressive (Piaget,
    1946, p. 63).

    Piaget
    suggested that because imitation
    Jacqueline took place
    a whole day later, in the mind of a girl
    should have kept some
    internal representation of the model. So
    how she was missing
    vocabulary required for
    representation of her actions in verbal
    form, she probably used
    certain type of motor
    representations. She is
    could imitate the boy’s behavior
    with very fast muscle
    movements while watching
    him, and these movements formed the basis
    her subsequent imitation
    (chap. 3).

    Development
    understanding the permanence of objects

    Bye
    we have described only some of the main
    features of six
    sensorimotor stages. Piaget explored
    and other elements of development
    during this period; he showed how
    babies construct concepts of permanence
    objects, time, space and
    causality
    and how they develop the ability to
    game. Due to lack
    places we will briefly consider only one
    important element of development
    – Understanding the permanence of objects.

    On the
    stages 1 and 2 babies have no idea
    about the objects that exist
    Around them. If a person or object
    are removed from their field of vision, maximum,
    what they do is continue some
    time to look where they last
    once seen him. If the object
    does not appear again, they switch
    your attention to something else. They are not
    are trying to find it. Kid follows
    rule: out of sight
    — out of mind (Piaget, 1936b, p. 1-12).

    On the
    stage 3 toddlers make new progress. How
    we mentioned earlier,
    now they are showing interest in the outside
    world (for example, to extend
    interesting experiences). Respectively,
    they start better
    understand the permanence of external objects.
    If objects fall, disappearing
    out of their sight, they are now watching
    where the object fell.
    They may also find partially hidden
    objects. If they temporarily put an object
    to the side (for example, behind your back), then
    may, after a short pause, find him.
    They can do this when the object has been
    associated with their own actions.
    However, babies at this stage
    unable to find objects that
    completely hidden by others
    people even in front of them (p. 13-48).

    On the
    stage 4 the first manifestations are noted
    genuine understanding
    permanence of objects. Toddlers can
    now find complete
    hidden objects. If we are completely
    cover the toy with a blanket
    the baby will pick it up and find the toy (p.
    51).

    But
    Piaget discovered at this stage a curious
    limitation. When
    he hid the object at point A, his children
    could find him, but when he
    then, in front of them, he hid
    same object at point B, they tried again
    find him
    at point A – the place of its previous
    success. According to the terminology
    Piaget, they couldn’t follow the next
    permutations (movements
    from one secret place to another)
    (p. 54).

    On the
    stage 5 children can follow the row
    permutations if they see how we
    perform. Behind invisible permutations
    babies are capable
    trace only at stage 6. For example,
    just on
    sixth stage, Jacqueline was able to, having done
    detour around the couch, find the ball,
    who rolled under the sofa. She was able
    do
    it’s because now she has
    ability to mentally imagine
    own trajectory of the ball, even when it was
    invisible (p. 231).

    According to
    Piaget, such roundabout actions are very
    are important. They are showing,
    that the child has developed a sense of space,
    which
    has the characteristics of a mathematical
    model called a group. For example i
    roundabout
    Jacqueline’s journey demonstrates
    such an important property of a group as
    associativity – the ability to achieve
    some
    points through various interconnected
    steps. Jacqueline also demonstrates
    reversibility property, returning the ball
    back. These roundabout actions indicate
    and on
    other properties that characterize
    connected structure,
    described by the mathematical concept
    groups (Piaget & Inhelder, 1966, pp. 15-47).

    Leaving
    technical details aside, we can
    note the huge
    the progress that babies make when
    gain understanding
    permanence of objects. At the beginning of life
    they lack representation
    about objects that exist themselves
    on its own, regardless
    from watching them or doing
    actions with them. By the end of the sensorimotor
    period objects are separated from each other
    and constant. So in the mind
    children, a universe is formed containing
    independent
    objects in which they themselves are
    just one
    object among many others. So
    along with the understanding of constancy
    objects they develop a clear
    self-image
    as independent beings (Piaget, 1936b,
    p. 108-109).

    Periods
    II and III. Pre-operational thinking
    (2
    years – 7 years) and specific operations (7-11
    years)

    To
    the end of the sensorimotor period
    able to make effective
    and well organized activities,
    allowing him to contact
    with your immediate environment.
    Child
    continues to use sensorimotor
    lifelong skills,
    next period, preoperative period
    thinking, marked
    an important change. Mental capacity
    baby fast
    reach a new level, the level of symbols
    (including images
    and words). As a result, the child must
    reorganize
    your thinking. This cannot be done right away.
    For some
    time, throughout
    preoperative period,
    the child’s thinking is generally not systematic
    and not logical. It
    organized on a mental level
    before the child turns
    7 years or so, not before the start
    specific
    operations (Piaget, 1964a, p. 22).

    Height
    symbolic activity

    Children
    start using symbols when
    use one object
    or action to represent another,
    absent (Ginsburg
    & Opper, 1988, p. 70). In fact, as we
    seen children begin
    do it in the sixth stage of the sensorimotor
    development. For example,
    Lucienne opened her mouth before opening
    Matchbox;
    she used her mouth to represent
    action that
    she hasn’t done it yet. Similar
    delayed imitation includes
    into a certain kind of internal
    presentation of past
    events. Piaget believed that delayed
    imitation also first
    includes motor imagery, and
    stressed that the first
    characters are motor characters, not
    linguistic.

    Examples
    non-linguistic characters we find
    and in children’s play. One Day Jacqueline
    imagined that a piece of cloth is hers
    pillow.
    She laid her head on the cloth and, laughing,
    pretended to fall asleep.
    Her game was symbolic, because
    she used
    one object, a piece of cloth, for presentation
    another missing
    – pillows (Piaget, 1946, p. 96). Make-believe game
    also begins on the sixth sensorimotor
    stages and becomes clearly visible
    over the next few years.

    Main
    the source of the characters is of course
    well, the language that
    develops rapidly in the beginning
    preoperative period (approx.
    from 2 to 4 years). One of the first times when
    Jacqueline symbolically
    used language happened when she
    it was almost 2 years after
    after she had been by the pond. Back
    home, she told her father
    about what happened, saying: “Robert cry,
    duck swim in the lake, fly away”
    (p. 222). That is, she used the words
    for the reconstruction of the missing
    events – an event that took place in
    past.

    Language
    significantly expands the horizons of the child.
    Through language
    the child can relive the past,
    anticipate the future
    and report some events to others
    people. But precisely because
    that the child’s thinking expands so
    swiftly, he first
    lacks the qualities of coherent logic. it
    manifests itself in how
    a small child uses words.
    He doesn’t use them to refer to
    true classes of objects, but only in
    as assumptions
    (preconcepts).
    For example,
    when Jacqueline was
    3 years old, she said that dad is
    a man who has “a lot of Lucien
    and a lot of Jacqueline” (p. 255). She has not yet owned
    concept of common
    class, inside which children with names
    Lucienne and Jacqueline make up
    only a small subset.

    Because the
    children have no idea about the general
    classes, their reasoning is often transductive,
    moving from particular to particular.
    At 4.5 years old, Lucienne said: “I haven’t slept yet
    after dinner, that is
    now it is not daytime” (p. 232). She is
    didn’t realize it was daylight
    time is the total period of time
    containing many private events,
    of which her dream was only one.

    Some
    psychologists believe that children learn
    think more
    logical when they master the language.
    According to this view, language
    provides us with conceptual categories
    (see Brown, 1965). But Piaget
    was of a different opinion. Although language has great
    value – it provides
    us a source of commonly used symbols
    for communication with
    other people – in itself it is not
    creates a logical structure
    thinking. Logic comes from actions.
    Babies form
    logically connected system of actions in
    course of sensorimotor
    period before they start talking
    and subsequent
    logic is just organized
    actions that have taken more
    internal view (Piaget & Inhelder, 1966, p.
    86-90). To explore
    how internal actions shape
    logical systems
    Piaget gave the children various tasks
    scientific nature. He usually started
    similar experiments with 4-year-old children,
    because they could already sit,
    focus on tasks
    and communicate with the examiner.

    Scientific
    reasoning

    Saving
    volume (liquid).
    This
    most famous experiment
    Piaget. In one case (Piaget & Szeminska, 1941,
    p. 17) the child is shown two identical
    glasses, A1 and A2, which are filled up to
    the same mark. The child is asked
    whether they contain
    both glasses are the same amount
    liquids, and the child is almost always
    says they contain. Next, the experimenter
    (or child) overflows
    liquid from A1 to glass P, which is lower
    and wider. child
    ask if there is a quantity left
    the same liquids. At the preoperative
    level, the answers are divided into two
    substages.

    On the
    children in the first substage are clearly incapable
    understand the principle of conservation – i.e. they
    do not realize that the quantity remains
    same. Usually
    they say there is more liquid now
    in glass A1, since it is higher. Sometimes
    baby says she’s bigger now
    in P, as it is wider. Anyway
    the child is “centered” on only one
    parameter, height or width. Only
    one perceptual parameter
    – appearance, produces on the child
    such a strong impression
    that the child is unable to use
    logic to understand that quantity
    liquid remained unchanged. On the second
    substage baby
    takes steps towards the principle of conservation,
    but not yet mastered
    them. The child may first say that
    liquid more
    in glass A1, since it is higher, then
    change your mind and say
    that there is more of it in P, since it is wider, and,
    Finally, get confused.
    The child demonstrates “intuitive
    regulation”,
    he begins to consider two perceptual
    parameter, but not yet
    talks about two things at the same time
    and is unaware that the change
    one parameter compensates for the change
    another. But his confusion shows
    that he begins to realize that he himself
    contradicts,
    and you can be sure that soon he
    resolve this contradiction
    and proceed to the save stage.

    How
    as a rule, children come to understand
    fluid retention approx.
    at the age of 7. When it happens
    they enter into
    stage of specific operations. Mostly,
    children come to understand
    conservation, using three arguments.
    First, the child may say, “You
    did not add anything and did not pour anything,
    so there should be the same amount of water.”
    This is an identity argument. Secondly,
    the child may say: “This glass
    taller here but the other is wider
    here, so the water is the same in both.”
    This is the compensation argument – changes
    balance each other. Child
    suggests that
    change is part of an organized
    systems – what a change
    one parameter is bound in a mandatory
    order with compensating
    changing the other. Third, baby
    can say:
    “It’s the same in both, so how can you
    pour water from here to there,
    where she was before. This is the argument of inversion,
    or reversibility (Piaget & Inhelder, 1966, p. 98).
    Piaget believed that the child is at the stage
    specific operations
    can use all three arguments though,
    maybe he won’t be able to do it.
    spontaneously while doing
    each task.

    AT
    These arguments are based on logical
    operations are mental
    actions that are reversible
    (p. 96). When a child
    indicates that the change in one glass
    compensated by a change in the other, it
    understands that the end result is
    return
    to the original amount. Similar
    the same way when
    baby claims we can transfuse
    water back, he suggests
    that we are reversing the process.

    Important
    note that operations are internal,
    mental actions. Child
    makes compensation or reverse
    actions in the mind. Actually,
    the child has not yet performed and has not seen
    the transformations he
    He speaks. These transformations (for example,
    reversibility) are like transformations,
    committed by a baby, but now they
    take place on
    more internalized level.

    Sometimes
    people ask if they are
    cause of misunderstanding
    children of the principle of preserving only
    their language difficulties.
    Children may think that under “more”
    the experimenter means “higher”,
    and therefore indicate a higher
    cup. Similar
    difficulties can be circumvented by changing
    the wording of the question, for example,
    asking: “From which glass could you
    drink more water?” Usually
    we find that a small child
    still unable
    understand the principle of conservation (Peill, 1975, p.
    7, chap. 2).

    How
    in the same way the child acquires understanding
    conservation laws? Most
    simple answer: understanding the laws
    conservation is instilled in him by
    learning. However, as we will see below,
    conservation law training
    often comes across the unexpected
    resistance. preoperative
    the child sincerely does not believe the explanations
    adult.

    Piaget
    argued that children acquire understanding
    save spontaneously. Decisive moment
    occurs in the second substage, when
    the child first says that in one of
    more glasses of liquid
    since he’s taller, then he says more
    in the other, since it is wider,
    and finally gets confused.
    The child is in a state
    internal contradiction, which
    allows by passing
    to a higher stage. Sometimes we can
    see how this change is happening on
    our eyes. The child says: “In this
    more…
    no, this one is wider, no, wait. In both
    equally. This one is higher
    but you poured water into a wider
    cup”.

    Saving
    quantities.
    B
    one of his conservation experiments
    quantities (Piaget & Szeminska, 1941, p. 49-56) Piaget
    gave children
    a row of egg glasses and a few eggs. Then
    he asked them to take so many
    eggs, as needed to fill
    glasses. And again the answers in the preoperative
    period was divided into two sub-stages.

    On the
    the first substage children just lined up
    rows of equal length
    ignoring the number of eggs in a row. When
    Piaget then asked them
    put the eggs in the glasses, they are surprised
    discovered that they had too many eggs
    too much or too little.

    On the
    second preoperative stage children
    spontaneously obtained the ratio
    one to one, placing one egg at a time
    next to each glass
    (see figure 6. 2). According to Piaget, they used
    intuitive approach
    obtaining an exact perceptual order.
    But their success was limited
    this simple perceptual arrangement.
    When Piaget then squeezed (or sometimes
    stretched) one of the rows, the children stated
    what now
    there are more items in one row. As in
    in case of fluid retention,
    children were unable to understand the principle
    conservation, because
    they were more influenced by their direct
    perception, not logic. Because one
    the row now looked much longer,
    they couldn’t figure out how many
    items should remain the same.

    Except
    Moreover, at this stage, children sometimes begin
    hesitate in your
    answers. First they say that in one
    a number of more items
    since it is longer but then declare
    that there are more of them in another
    row, as it is denser. This state
    conflict characterizes the transition to
    specific operations.

    On the
    stages of specific operations, children are aware
    that the number of items
    in each row is the same, despite
    difference in line length.
    They conclude that the two rows are the same,
    because “you’re nothing
    did not remove or add anything”
    (identity), because “that
    the row is longer here, but this one is tighter.”
    (compensation) or because
    that “you can do this row again
    long and they will
    the same” (inversion).

    Others
    conservation experiments.
    Piaget
    explored a number of other
    types of conservation, such as conservation
    matter, weight, volume
    and length. So, in the experiment on conservation
    substances, the child is shown
    two identical balls of plasticine
    or test, and then he sees how one
    the ball is given an elongated, thinner
    shape like a cake. baby on
    pre-operational level
    thinks two balls contain different things
    amount of test.

    We will not consider here various
    types of conservation, but only note that all
    they are believed to involve mastery
    the same logical concepts
    – identity, inversion and compensation.
    However, some types of laws

    conservation,
    appear to be more complex than others,
    and absorbed later. 1
    So reaching understanding
    conservation is a gradual
    process within a specific period
    operations.

    Switching on
    to class.
    B
    typical switching experiment
    element to class
    Piaget (Piaget & Szeminska, 1941, pp. 161-181) suggested
    children
    20 wooden beads, of which 18 were
    brown and two
    – white. Piaget made sure that children
    understand that although most of the beads
    brown and two are white, they are all made
    from wood.
    Then he asked the children: “What kind of beads
    more: brown
    or wooden? Children on preoperative
    level said more brown
    beads. Obviously, the abundance of brown
    beads compared to two white
    produced on them so strong
    the impression that they were incapable
    realize that both brown and white
    beads are part of some
    greater whole
    – a class of wooden beads. As in
    in the case of conservation,
    period of specific operations children
    deal with similar tasks.
    to include the element in the class, and,
    appear to use the same
    logical operations (p. 178).

    1
    It can be assumed that the acquisition of one
    a number of laws always occur in one
    and the same sequence – assimilation
    conservation of matter, then weight and volume
    (Ginsburg & Opper, 1988, p. 151-153; Piaget & Inhelder, 1966,
    p. 99).

    Social
    thinking

    Egocentrism.
    Piaget
    believed that in each period there is
    general correspondence between scientific and
    social thinking. For example,
    just like pre-operational
    children are incapable
    take into account two parameters
    performing conservation tasks, they
    also unable to take into account more than one
    points of view
    in their interactions with others.
    preoperative children
    often show self-centeredness, considering
    all exclusively with their own
    positions. It becomes clear from conversations
    children (Piaget,
    1923). For example, a little girl might
    tell your girlfriend:
    “I’m putting it in here” no matter what
    the place to which she
    indicates, hidden from the eyes of her girlfriend.

    One
    of the most widely cited studies
    Piaget devoted to egocentrism concerned
    child’s perception of space.
    In this study (Piaget & Inhelder, 1948)
    the child was led around
    layout of three mountains so that he can see
    how the layout looks from different angles.
    After this bypass, the child was seated
    one side
    layout, facing the doll that was looking
    on the layout with the opposite
    sides. The child was then asked to choose
    from several photos
    the picture that best shows
    what he sees and
    picture showing what he sees
    doll. All the children could find
    a picture that reflected their own
    position, but the smallest
    children (approximately 4 to 6 years old) often chose
    the same pictures
    to show the position of the doll. Obviously,
    they didn’t understand that
    the position of the doll is different from theirs
    own.

    Egocentrism,
    thus refers to the inability
    separate your point of view from someone else’s. But
    egocentricity does not necessarily mean
    selfishness or vanity. This thought can
    explain with an example.
    One day two boys went to the store
    with his aunt to do
    gift for mom on her birthday. Older
    the boy who was
    7 years old, chose a piece of jewelry. Jr,
    who was 3.5
    year, chose a toy car.
    Younger boy’s behavior
    was not dictated by selfishness or
    greed; he carefully packed
    gift and gave it to my mother with a look that
    showed clearly that
    he thought she’d like the gift.
    However, his behavior
    was self-centered; he did not accept
    attention to the fact that interests
    his mothers are different from his own.

    Bye
    children are self-centered, they are usually just
    play next to each other
    friend. For example, two boys in the sandbox
    will build their own
    buildings. When they overcome
    self-centeredness, then learn
    coordinate their actions in a joint
    work. Each
    can dig a tunnel so that the tunnels in
    eventually connect. It requires
    from each of them considering the point of view
    another. Such a cooperative
    the game takes place at the specific stage
    operations.

    Egocentrism
    may also affect the speech of young children
    children, for example
    when they participate in a “collective
    monologue.” It may seem that two
    little girls have a conversation then
    how
    in fact, each
    tells what she thinks
    Currently. One girl can
    talk about a toy house that
    she’s building now, and the other is about the trip,
    which
    she did, and between their words there is no
    no connection. When
    children overcome egocentrism, they
    take into account the reactions and point
    the eyes of your listeners.

    So
    Thus, a significant part of the interactions
    differs between peers
    egocentrism. However, he assumed
    Piaget
    (1923, p. 101; 1932, p. 94), children overcome
    egocentrism when
    begin to interact not only
    exclusively with adults
    but more and more with other children. They are
    discover that while
    adults seem to understand everything that
    they want to tell their peers on it
    incapable. Accordingly, they learn
    take into account the point
    view of others in order to be understood.

    Except
    moreover, it produces less for children
    impression of the authority of others
    children, and they are more freely involved with
    them into conflict. They are
    argue with their peers and sometimes
    reach compromises
    and cooperate with them. Thus they
    begin to coordinate alternative
    points of view and interests (Piaget, 1924, p. 205).

    Regardless
    on whether children overcome egocentrism
    predominantly
    through interactions with peers
    or not, the most important point in the theory
    Piaget is that the children themselves play
    an active role in the awareness of the existence
    alternative points
    vision. In this regard, I recall the case
    when one of our
    sons, who was then 5 years old,
    apparently really
    made this discovery. One day when
    the two of us rode in the car,
    after a few minutes of silence he
    said: “You know, dad, you
    don’t remember what I remember
    I”. I asked him what he meant and
    he replied: “Well, for example, when I
    I remember my
    boots, you don’t know about it; you do not
    you can remember what I remember
    I”. So at that moment he
    apparently really
    I understood, and understood myself, that the point of view
    other people
    different from his own. Maybe,
    then it’s not completely
    overcame his egocentrism, but the essence
    here in another: how
    whatever his step, he took it
    on one’s own.

    Moral
    judgment.
    Piaget
    explored social thinking
    children in many areas, including
    moral standards. In his
    classic work “The Moral
    child’s judgment” he
    paid special attention to how children
    understand
    ball game rules.

    Piaget
    first observed how children really
    play this
    game and found that between the ages
    4 and 7 years they are usually
    play in an egocentric manner. If a
    two boys were playing
    everyone played in their own way. They had a vague
    idea of ​​victory;
    one of them could exclaim: “I won,
    and you won too!
    After the age of 7 children tried
    follow the general rules
    and win according to them (Piaget, 1932/1965, pp.
    29-46).

    Then
    Piaget studied the thinking of children,
    regarding the rules. His
    I was especially interested in whether children think
    that the rules can be changed.
    Here he discovered that children during
    several years – approx.
    up to 10 years of age – it is believed that
    the rules are fixed
    and immutable. They said the rules
    establishes some
    authoritative person: the state or God.
    The rules can’t be changed, they said
    they, because then it won’t
    real game.

    About
    after 10 years, children became more
    realistic. Now they’ve seen in
    the rules are just the way the game is played,
    established
    as a result of mutual agreement.
    The kids didn’t count the rules anymore
    fixed or absolute; they
    said that the rules
    probably changed over time
    when the kids came up with
    new rules. And they also said that
    can change them
    if all participants in the game agree
    (ibid., pp. 50-76).

    These
    different ideas about the rules,
    Piaget said, demonstrate
    two basic moral principles.
    The first characteristic
    for young children is
    moral heteronomy,
    blind obedience to the rules set
    adults. The children assume
    that there is one sovereign law,
    to which they always
    must follow. Second moral
    principle characteristic
    for older children, autonomy.
    This principle regards rules as
    inventions of people created by equal
    participants for the sake of cooperation (ibid.,
    pp. 401-406).

    Piaget
    believed that moral heteronomy
    associated with egocentrism;
    children evaluate the rules with a single
    points of view – points
    adult vision. Being a form
    egocentrism, moral heteronomy
    overcome rather late
    age 10 or so
    Moreover, in comparison with the egocentric
    a game that is usually overcome
    by the age of 7. Here Piaget
    reminds us that
    heteronomy is a form of egocentric
    thinking and saying
    that thinking often lags behind action.
    Children may need to participate
    really in large numbers
    collective
    games with peers in which they
    actually change the rules to
    satisfy the desires of all participants,
    before they can appreciate
    the reality of the rules on the conscious
    level (ibid. , p. 94-95).

    Animism.
    Piaget
    describes other differences in thinking
    small
    children from the thinking of older children
    and adults. Like Heinz Werner, Piaget
    noticed that small children do not spend
    those differences between
    animate and inanimate
    items that
    we do. Werner said they
    perceive all objects
    including physical, physiognomic
    way as full of life
    and feelings. The rumbling truck can
    seem angry to them
    and the only cloud in the sky is lonely.
    Piaget called this
    view of the physical world is animistic.

    Although
    Werner and Piaget were impressed
    similar installation
    in young children, each of them studied
    her under a few
    a different angle. Werner was interested
    direct perceptions
    objects by children; Piaget was more interested
    the way children represent
    themselves and define life.

    First,
    discovered by Piaget, children equate
    life to any kind
    activity. For example, one boy
    asked:

    living
    whether the sun? – Alive. – Why? – It gives
    light. – is it alive
    a candle?—Alive, because it gives light. She is
    alive when it gives light, but
    not alive when it does not give … Is it alive
    bell? – Alive, he
    rings (Piaget, 1926, p. 196).

    Similar
    thinking is common in children in
    ages 4 to 6
    years.

    a little
    later, at the age of about 6 to 8 years,
    children restrict
    the concept of “life” by objects that
    are moving. For example:

    Alive
    whether a stone?—Alive. – Why he
    moves… How does it move?
    – He’s rolling. Is the table alive? – No he
    can’t move…
    Is the bike alive? – Alive. – Why?
    – He is going (p. 196).

    Only
    after 8 years or so children limit
    the concept of “life”
    objects that move on their own
    yourself, and later plants
    and animals.

    Piaget
    found quite similar stages in
    thinking about
    various types of objects that
    endowed with feelings and consciousness. First
    children believe that the object is endowed
    feelings, if
    he reacts in some way
    external influences. For example,
    the stick feels the fire, since its
    burn. A little later the children
    limit the senses and consciousness
    objects that move, then
    objects that move on their own
    himself and, finally, animals and people.

    So
    Thus, children gradually refuse
    from their animism and start doing
    differences for most
    adults. Fate
    animism in Piaget’s theory, how can we
    note is different from destiny
    physiognomic perception in Werner.
    According to Werner,
    physiognomic perception, although
    less dominant in most
    adults than children, still remains
    with us and influence
    on our artistic and poetic
    views. According to Piaget, animism is simply
    overcome.

    Dreams.
    Single
    from Piaget’s earliest research was
    devoted to the presentation
    children about dreams (1926, chap. 3). Like
    in the case of ideas about life, understanding
    little children of dreams,
    seems to follow a specific
    stage sequence.
    After Piaget’s first study, others
    scientists (primarily
    turn Kohlberg, 1966a) clarified the
    its sequence
    dream perception.

    First
    children seem to believe that dreams are real.
    For example, when
    A 4-year-old girl was asked if there was a giant
    from her dream indeed
    there, she replied: “He really
    was there but disappeared when
    I woke up. I saw his footprints on the floor.”
    (Kohlberg, 1966a, p.
    6). Shortly thereafter, the children discover
    that dreams are not real, but still
    evaluate them differently than
    older children or adults.
    They think their dreams are visible to others
    people and that they come from outside (from the night,
    from the sky or through the window from
    street lights). They also think that
    dreams are outside of them when
    they see them. As if they were watching
    film, which
    unfolds in their room on their
    eyes. Gradually, step
    step by step, children realize that dreams are not only
    unreal, but also invisible,
    are of internal origin
    internal localization
    and have other characteristics
    which adults ascribe to them.
    Children usually complete their discoveries by
    6-7 years of age, at the beginning of the period
    specific operations.

    How
    How do children learn about dreams? Our
    the first guess would probably be
    next: they learn about them from adults.
    When children have nightmares, parents
    reassure them by saying:
    “Don’t worry, it was just a dream. it
    It was not in reality, but only in your head.
    However, Piaget’s followers believe that
    that the children in
    reality open various
    properties of dreams on their own.
    Kohlberg (1966a), for example, argued that
    that since
    children learn sequence
    dream perception
    through six unchanging stages,
    it is unlikely that their thinking
    is a product of learning from
    adults; adults don’t
    burden themselves with the task of informing
    children about dreams in such detail,
    exact order. Children come to different
    concepts
    independently, in sequence,
    which is becoming more and more
    complex.

    FROM
    the purpose of collecting additional information
    about the role of learning from
    adults Kohlberg (1966a) asked about
    dreams of children from the community of natives, in
    where adults believe that dreams are real
    (Atayal tribe in Taiwan). Despite
    on the beliefs of adults, these children,
    apparently
    go through the stages in the same order,
    as American
    or Swiss children. That is, they first
    discover that
    dreams are not real, then – that they are invisible
    etc. Finally, when they
    reach the final stage, they experience
    the influence of representations
    adults and change their views, taking
    end point
    seeing that dreams are real. Nonetheless
    first they go through
    dream sequence
    against all beliefs
    adults, so the views of the latter are not
    may
    to be the only determinants of them
    learning.

    Summary

    Piaget
    argued that the thinking of children in
    preoperative period
    very different from how children think
    seniors and adults.
    Pre-operational thinking is characterized
    egocentrism
    animism, moral heteronomy,
    the idea of ​​dreams as external
    events, lack of classification,
    misunderstanding of the principle
    conservation, as well as other attributes,
    which
    we have no opportunity to consider.

    It turned out
    long list, and you can ask a question:
    “What do they have in common?
    all these characteristics among themselves?
    This question is central
    in Piaget’s theory, as he points out,
    that each stage of development
    there is a basic unity. Unfortunately,
    Piaget did not devote as much
    attention as much as we would like, but
    most often
    (e.g. 1964a, p. 41-60) he tries to tie
    various preoperative
    characteristics with the concept of egocentrism.

    AT
    children are self-centered in their speech when they
    consider issues
    only from my own point of view.
    Animism is the attribution of animation
    physical objects – also follows
    out of egocentrism;
    children assume that everything around
    functions the same as
    they themselves. Likewise, Piaget
    tried to show that representations
    little children about dreams are bound
    with egocentrism. While children are self-centered,
    they fail to realize that each
    human
    may have personal, subjective experience,
    like dreams.
    Further, in the field of moral norms
    egocentrism goes hand in hand
    with moral heteronomy. small
    children look at the rules with only one
    positions – as absolute concepts,
    sent down
    over. They still don’t understand what the rules are
    based on mutual
    agreements between two or more
    actors seeking
    reconcile their differing goals
    through cooperation.

    Available
    also the relationship between egocentrism and
    children’s performance
    scientific assignments such as
    conservation experiments.
    Just like an egocentric child
    examines items
    from a single point of view, baby,
    unable to understand
    conservation principle, focuses its
    focus on only one
    aspect of the problem. For example, when water
    poured from one glass to another
    lower and wider, baby
    “centered” on
    one conspicuous parameter –
    difference in height. Child
    cannot “de-center” and accept
    take into account two
    aspect of the situation.

    Children
    at the level of specific operations are capable of
    consider two aspects of the problem at the same time.
    In their social interactions they
    take into account
    not only what they say themselves, but also
    the needs of the listener.
    When they do experiments on
    saving, then accept
    into account not only the most conspicuous
    change, but also compensating
    changes. Thus, the ability
    coordinate
    two points of view at the same time
    basis of both social and
    and scientific thinking (Piaget, 1947, pp. 156-166).

    Period
    IV. Formal transactions
    (11
    years—maturity)

    On the
    level of specific operations, children can
    think systematically
    in relation to “mental actions”.
    For example, when water
    poured into a new glass, they can
    tell us what reversibility is
    this process, without performing itself
    action. But such abilities are
    your limitation. Children can think
    logically and systematically
    when dealing with tangible
    objects with which you can make
    real action (Piaget,
    1964a, p. 62).

    Against,
    at the level of formal operations thinking
    soars
    into the realm of the purely abstract and hypothetical.
    Ability for abstract
    reasoning can be seen in the answers
    to such questions
    how: if Joe is shorter than Bob and
    taller than alex who out
    the three highest? At the level of specific
    operations children can
    solve this problem only if
    put people in order and compare
    their growth; otherwise they will
    just guess.
    But adolescents, having reached the level of formal
    operations, already
    can organize thoughts in their head
    (p. 62).

    Piaget
    most interested in the ability
    talk, related
    with hypothetical possibilities. AT
    one experiment (Inhelder
    & Piaget, 1955, p. 107-122) children were given four
    bottles containing colorless liquids
    and marked with the numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4. They also
    gave a small vessel with colorless
    liquid, marked
    the letter “r”. Their task was to mix these
    liquids like this
    so that the color turns yellow.

    Children
    at the level of pre-operational intelligence,
    usually acted
    completely disorderly. They poured
    liquids into and out of bottles at random.

    On the
    level of specific operations actions
    children looked more
    organized. Model strategy
    was to pour liquid from a vessel with the letter
    “r” in each bottle: 1, 2, 3 and 4. But then
    children stopped
    their attempts. When they were asked
    why are they usually
    they said they couldn’t do anything
    do. Thus their actions
    showed some organization
    similar to the one that
    we might expect from their systematic
    behavior
    when performing save tasks,
    when they are able to reason,
    given two parameters at the same time.
    But they overdid
    only a limited number of options.

    On the
    the level of formal operations adolescents
    work systematically
    in terms of considering all possibilities.
    Some start
    with checking different combinations, but
    then realize that they are better
    ensure that all possible
    combinations, so
    they write them out before
    act further.

    When
    teenagers think about different
    opportunities provided
    in a situation, and then systematically
    check they work like real ones
    scientists. For example, a teenage girl
    may decide to check the properties of the new
    land for planting.
    At the level of formal operations, it is not
    just put in a new one
    earth in a pot with one plant, and
    old – in a pot with another;
    she is considering other possibilities.
    Perhaps these two plants
    in any case would have achieved different
    height, due to individual
    differences, so she takes a few
    plants and studies
    the average effect given by each land.
    Possibly sunny.
    light also has an effect, so
    she makes sure that
    all plants are lit equally.
    Perhaps the quantity is also important.
    water, so it exercises control
    and behind this variable.
    The essence of such reasoning is that
    that a person systematically
    considers hypotheses. He not only tries
    new opportunity,
    but isolates one of the hypotheses by controlling
    impact of others
    possible variables.

    How
    and in the case of other periods, Piaget introduced
    logico-mathematical
    models, describing the formal-operational
    thinking. These
    models are in some respects similar to
    those that are used
    at previous levels of development, but with
    this they go beyond them
    framework. The models are very complex and we will not
    try to cover them here.
    But it is important to note that at the level of formal
    operations thinking
    reaches the highest degree of balance.
    This means among
    other things that various operations are more
    are closely related and
    they are used in the widest of
    possible areas of application – in the field
    hypothetical possibilities.

    Although
    Piaget limited most of his
    adolescent math research
    and scientific reasoning, he pondered
    and the role of formal operations in social
    adolescent life
    & Piaget, 1955, chap. eighteen). Unlike
    concrete-operational
    a child who lives predominantly
    in “here and now”
    teenagers are beginning to think about more
    distant problems
    – about their future and the nature of society,
    to which they should
    enter. At the same time, their new cognitive
    opportunities may lead to
    striking idealism and utopianism.
    They can now
    embrace abstract principles
    and ideals such as freedom,
    justice and love, and represent
    imagine hypothetical societies, strongly
    different from all those that exist
    to the present
    moment. So the teenager
    becomes a dreamer, constructing
    theories about a better world.

    Piaget
    believed that such an idealistic
    and utopian thinking
    brings with it a new kind of egocentrism.
    To fully appreciate
    this new egocentricity, we must
    remember how egocentrism
    appears whenever the child
    enters a new field of intellectual
    life. Babies are self-centered at first
    in the sense
    that they have no concept of the world beyond
    outside of their own actions.
    External objects are devoid of permanent
    independent
    existence. Only at the end of the sensorimotor
    period, children decenter and include
    yourself into a world of permanent objects, from
    of which they are but one.

    On the
    the next level – the level of pre-operational
    thinking – children
    step into a new much bigger world,
    which includes language, symbolic
    presentation and communication with others
    people. Children
    become self-centered again, and they
    difficult to take into account except for the position,
    currently occupied by them, also
    other. Gradually they
    decentered and learn to consider
    alternative points
    vision – if they think about specific
    objects located directly
    In front of them.

    Finally,
    teenagers are entering into an even wider
    the world is a world of possibilities,
    – and egocentrism reappears. On the
    this time egocentrism
    noticeable when teenagers attribute
    limitless to your thoughts
    power. They dream of a “glorious future
    or about transforming the world with
    ideas” (p. 346), without trying to test his
    thoughts in real life. According to the theory
    Piaget, final
    decentralization occurs when adolescents
    start to take on
    assume adult roles and thus
    aware of the obstacles that limit
    their dreams. They learn that the theoretical
    design or
    utopian dream has value only
    when she even
    can be partially implemented
    practically.

    Theoretical
    questions

    Concept
    stages

    Many
    psychologists use the term stage
    quite freely
    only as a convenient way to generalize
    their results. it
    does not apply to Piaget. As emphasized
    Kohlberg (1968),
    Piaget’s concept of stages suggests
    several solid
    provisions concerning the nature of development.

    Firstly,
    in a rigorous theory of stages, their sequence
    should be unchanged. people pass
    through stages at different speeds, and
    some may not reach the highest
    stages of Piaget; but if
    they pass through them, then move forward
    forward in a certain order.

    Secondly,
    stages suggest that growth is shared
    on a qualitatively
    different periods. If intellectual
    development was
    continuous quantitative process,
    any division into
    independent stages would be arbitrary
    (Flavell, 1963, p. 19). To
    For example, if knowledge can be assessed in
    points from 0 to 100, then any
    division into stages at 40, 50 and 70
    would make no more sense
    than any other series of dividing
    points. Piaget believed
    that thinking in different periods is organized
    qualitatively different
    manner. Thinking at the concrete level
    operations, for example, are qualitatively different
    from thinking at the level of formal
    operations (it is logical insofar as
    refers to specific
    objects and actions, but is not yet
    really abstract
    and hypothetical). Accordingly, between
    two periods there is a natural,
    real difference.

    Thirdly,
    stages refer to general characteristics.
    Kohlberg when discussing this moment
    likes to ask the next question. AT
    A 4 year old child cannot
    copy rhombus. Aged 5
    years he can do it. Has it reached
    baby stage copy diamonds?
    Kohlberg added that this assumption
    sounds pretty
    stupid because copying diamonds
    too specific to
    call it a stage. If we become
    call each quotient a stage
    achievement, we will have thousands of stages.
    It would be more correct to say
    that the child has reached a new general stage
    perceptual-motor
    coordination that allows him
    perform many new
    operations. Similarly, Piaget’s stages
    belong to the general structures
    thinking and if we know that baby
    is on a certain
    stages, we must be able to predict
    his behavior at
    performing a variety of tasks. it
    statement is not
    absolutely true, because children can
    be on several other
    stages in various areas (for example,
    in scientific judgment
    in comparison with the area of ​​social
    judgments). Piaget called
    similar inconsistencies with decals
    ( decalages French
    displacements, shifts),
    but in each common period must have
    fundamental place
    unity in the results shown.

    Fourth,
    Piaget (Inhelder & Piaget, 1955) believed that his
    stages
    are hierarchical
    integration. That is, the lower
    stages do not disappear, but are integrated into
    new wider structures
    and, in a certain sense, obey
    them. For example, a teenage boy
    who begins to use formal
    operations,
    may still use specific
    operations
    – he can still reason
    systematically about specific,
    visible events, but now he realizes
    that these events are
    only part of a wider spectrum
    theoretical possibilities,
    and prefer to approach different
    problems, considering
    this wider spectrum. 1

    Fifth,
    Piaget, like other orthodox
    stage theorists, argued that his
    stages are revealed in the same
    sequences
    in all cultures.

    1
    Piaget’s followers believe that
    sequential hierarchical
    integration
    characterize development throughout
    periods, with the exception of
    pre-operational thinking. Peculiarities
    this period,
    associated with illogicality, apparently
    not saved and integrated into
    any higher structures;
    they are simply overcome (Inhelder, 1971).

    it
    assumption is often puzzling
    readers. Aren’t different cultures
    instill various
    representations, especially
    moral standards? We
    We will discuss this issue in the next chapter,
    but in general Piaget’s response
    boils down to the fact that his theory deals with
    not specific ideas, but
    fundamental cognitive
    abilities.
    Thus, small children, regardless
    from their cultural representations
    on matters such as sex or
    militancy, will
    base their views on the fact that
    their opinion is justified
    or condemned by authority figures.
    And only in youth
    when young people master the formal
    operations, they will start
    indulge in abstract, theoretical
    reasoning on moral
    topics, whatever their specific
    representation.

    So
    Thus, Piaget put forward a rigorous theory
    stages. It means,
    that he believed that his stages a)
    deployed in an unchanging
    sequences, b) describe
    qualitatively different periods, c)
    belong to the general properties of thinking,
    d) are
    hierarchical integrations and e) culturally
    universal.

    Transition
    from stage to stage

    Piaget
    paid much attention to the structures of his
    stages and significantly
    less – the problem of their passage. Tem
    no less he had
    well-defined views on this
    question.

    He
    recognized (1964b) that the biological
    maturation plays a role in
    development. For example, children are probably not
    can master
    specific operations without a specific
    minimum maturation
    nervous system. At the same time, Piaget
    claimed that one maturation
    cannot play a dominant role
    because the pace of development
    depends a lot on where the children are
    live. Children who grow up in poverty
    rural areas often develop
    at a slow pace, obviously because
    that they lack intellectual
    stimulation. So the environment is also important.

    But
    the role of the environment is easy to exaggerate, as it
    do proponents of learning theories.
    In general, they believe that thinking
    baby is in
    main product of external reinforcements
    and learning. Piaget’s concepts, they believe,
    must be vaccinated by parents
    teachers and others. But as we
    we will see in the last section of this chapter,
    it’s far from clear what’s going on
    exactly. On the
    Piaget’s view, the environment is important, but only
    kind of. The environment nourishes, stimulates
    and tests the child, but the children themselves
    build cognitive
    structures. When children explore the environment,
    they face events
    that arouse their interest. Especially
    they are intrigued by events;
    being relatively new, events
    which are exactly
    inconsistent with their past experience.
    Then the kids make adjustments
    in your activities to learn more about
    these events, and in this
    the process of constructing new means
    interaction with the world.
    For example, we saw how small
    the boy was amazed at how
    water splashes in all directions
    when you put your hand under
    crane, then he began to move his hand
    up and down, and probably
    realized the benefits of active experimentation,
    which allows you to get
    different outcomes (stage 5 of the sensorimotor
    development). AT
    similar behavior, the child’s thinking
    it is not the environment that structures, but the child himself,
    constructing new schemes.

    Except
    addition, an experience that contributes
    cognitive development,
    only interesting, but usually introduces
    child in conflict.
    For example, an infant may not be able to
    grab an object from behind an obstacle,
    in his path. To kid
    need to create
    new structure – the relationship between
    means and purpose, to
    get an object. The child assimilates
    new objects, producing
    accommodations that help build
    new cognitive
    structures.

    concept
    conflict is included in the formal model
    progressive
    change, which Piaget called
    balancing (Piaget, 1964b). We already
    talked about the essence of this model,
    without mentioning its name when described,
    how do children learn
    the concept of conservation. For example, small
    the girl sees how the clay
    ball, and at first thinks that the number
    clay has increased. However, after some
    time she notices a small
    the width of the clay and thinks the clay has shrunk.
    That is, she perceives
    something contrary to its original
    look. When
    she thinks about both length and width,
    then he gets confused.
    This conflict prompts the child to realize
    that one change
    compensates for the other, and leads to the discovery
    conservation principle.
    Piaget’s balancing model tries
    link numeric
    probabilities with the possibility that the child
    consider one parameter,
    then the other, and finally both.

    AT
    philosophy, this model of Piaget would be called
    dialectical theory.
    Dialectical theory says that
    change is happening
    when our ideas collide
    facts that refute
    them, and this prompts us to formulate
    new, improved
    ideas.

    Other
    source of a new, conflicting
    information is
    social environment. For example, preoperative
    children overcome
    egocentrism when interacting with
    peers with whom
    they enter into disputes and conflicts. During
    such exchange
    they learn that other people have views
    different from
    of their own, and also learn
    coordinate different interests,
    participating in collective activities.
    This ability to coordinate
    point of view can help develop
    scientific thinking,
    where coordination of different
    parameters (Piaget, 1947,
    R. 156-166).

    So
    Thus, Piaget tried to point out various
    opportunities, with
    which interesting and conflicting
    elements of information fail
    children to develop new cognitive
    structures. It is important to emphasize
    that development is always spontaneous
    process. Children themselves assimilate
    new information, resolve conflicts
    and design
    new cognitive structures.

    Practical
    application

    Piaget
    didn’t write too much about issues
    pedagogy, but still gave
    a few recommendations. In essence, his
    general pedagogical philosophy
    similar to the views of Rousseau and Montessori.
    Piaget also has genuine learning.
    is not transmitted through the teacher, but is
    something
    emanating from the child. It’s a process
    spontaneous inventions
    and discoveries. This statement is undoubtedly
    true about
    babies who achieve incredible
    intellectual progress
    just by self
    environment and manipulation research
    her. It may also be true for
    older children
    age. Accordingly, the teacher should
    do not impose
    child knowledge, and to select materials,
    that will interest the child
    and force him to strain his strength, and
    then let him on his own
    solve problems (Piaget, 1969, p. 151-153,160).

    Like
    Rousseau and Montessori, Piaget emphasized
    the importance of anchoring
    education to a specific level
    child development. He didn’t agree
    with a Montessori eye on the stage,
    based on maturation
    but the general principle remains the same:
    The teacher must take into account differences in
    interests and modes of learning children in
    different periods.

    For example,
    some boy just stepped in
    specific
    operations. He starts to think logically
    but his thinking
    still partly related to specific
    objects and actions.
    Accordingly, classes should
    give him the opportunity to actively
    dealing with real things. For example,
    if
    we want to teach him operations with fractions,
    you shouldn’t draw
    charts, lecture him or draw him in
    him into verbal
    discussions. We must let him
    separate into parts
    objects (Flavell, 1963, r. 368). If we assume
    what he
    able to learn verbally
    then we show egocentrism; in this case
    we assume that he acquires knowledge,
    precisely
    the way we do it. As a result, he
    take what we say as something
    far-fetched, and the lesson will pass him by
    ears. Can
    to think that this principle is a fit
    educational process
    to the child’s own stage
    self-evident. Unfortunately,
    it is not always so. A case in point
    there was a wave of training
    reforms that were carried out in the United States in
    1950-1960, after
    how the Soviet Union was the first to achieve
    success in space exploration. Trying
    catch up with the Russians, teachers introduced a “new
    mathematics”, “new natural science” and
    other subjects designed to teach
    children Abstract,
    theoretical reasoning in a very
    early age.
    At first this idea was considered great,
    but the new curriculum
    was not very successful. Cause
    is believed
    Kohlberg & Gilligan (1971)
    was that small
    children who were mostly at the level
    specific operations
    and below have attempted to explain the ideas that
    suggest the presence
    abilities acquired only on
    formal
    operations. Educational reforms began with
    adult performances
    about what children need to learn
    taking into account one’s own cognitive
    children’s level.

    AT
    late 1970s and early 1980s we watched
    similar trend
    – a trend that continues
    today. Leaders
    our country, concerned that
    The United States is ceding technological
    leadership to the Japanese, began to call for
    new rise in education. Parents
    also began to worry
    about the future of their children and
    wanted to teach them at an early age
    age. One of the results was
    more training
    programs that are taking place in more and more
    early age – from childhood
    garden and even earlier. David Etkind (Etkind,
    1981, 1985),
    follower of Piaget, one of the first
    began to protest against
    this trend. Five year old children pointed
    Etkind, learn
    predominantly through play and
    direct touch contact
    with the environment; formal Education,
    including textbooks and written
    tasks that do not coincide with natural
    modes (methods – A.A.) of learning
    little children. early formal
    education teaches the little ones
    children mainly what study
    heavy and unnatural.

    Not
    it is always easy to pick up study tasks,
    which are the most natural
    for this child. Knowledge can help
    cognitive stages, but sometimes in different
    areas children are
    at different stages (Piaget, 1969, p. 171). Required
    sensitivity
    and flexibility on the part of the teacher – willingness
    take a close look
    on the child’s actions, learn from the child
    and be guided
    spontaneous interests of the child (Ginsburg
    & Orper, 1988, p. 239). Because interest is always
    is a prerequisite for active learning
    (Piaget, 1969, p. 152).

    So
    way, like Rousseau and Montessori,
    Piaget believed that learning
    should be a process of active discovery
    and should be tied to the stage of the child.
    But on one point Piaget disagreed.
    With
    Rousseau and Montessori. Piaget saw
    much greater pedagogical value
    in social interactions. Children begin
    think logically – coordinate
    two parameters at the same time, – partially
    by learning to take into account
    two or more points of view in their
    relationships with others. In this way,
    interaction should
    encourage, and most beneficial
    are those in which
    children feel the initial equality, as
    this happens most often
    in their relationships with peers. Bye
    children feel pressured
    from some authority figure,
    who knows the “correct” answer
    it will be difficult to assess differences in points
    vision. Against,
    in group discussions with other children
    they have the best
    opportunity to deal with different
    points of view as tasks,
    stimulating their own thinking
    (r. 173-180).

    Constructivism
    Camii

    Undertaken
    several attempts to transfer Piaget’s ideas
    to the educational
    audience, in particular in preschool and
    elementary grades (DeVries
    & Kohlberg, 1987, chap. 3). Some educators
    focused
    focus on Piaget’s assignments, trying
    teach children the principle
    conservation, classification, etc.
    Others were more interested
    spirit of Piaget’s theory. active supporter
    this approach is
    Constance Kamiy (Kamii).

    Camii
    starts with Piaget’s premise, according to
    which real
    cognitive growth takes place only
    when children construct
    own knowledge. Children must be provided
    opportunities for independent
    understanding things. They won’t do it
    Kamiya made sure if the teachers use
    written assignments
    and tests. This practice causes children
    such anxiety in
    about finding the “right
    answers” – answers that
    the teacher will consider correct – that they are not
    think about tasks on their own.
    Instead of written assignments and tests,
    teachers need
    offer children exercises that
    they will find so interesting
    and meaningful that will work
    over them for them
    themselves. Similar tasks, says Camii,
    can be found everywhere in everyday life
    children’s lives. For example, first graders
    enthusiastically
    solve arithmetic problems that arise
    during card
    games, keep score during the street yoke,
    vote for decisions
    accepted in the class, and make a roll call.
    During such
    activities the teacher can ask
    questions that are even more
    stimulate children’s interest in arithmetic.
    If the children are playing
    in softball, the teacher might ask:
    how many more points do you need
    take to score a total of 11? If a
    child brings pudding to treat
    classmates, the teacher can ask
    the question is enough
    Do all children have cups? Teacher questions
    lead children’s thinking
    in motion, but it always leaves
    problem solving for children.
    The teacher must be respectful
    even to “wrong
    answers” of children. It would be better if the children
    give the wrong answer
    which belongs to them than
    think they should apply
    to an adult to find out the correct
    answer (Kamii, 1985, p. 46-49, 119-121, 161-165; Kamii &
    DeVries, 1977).

    When
    children go to second and third grade,
    Camii adds a lot
    dice games, card and board games,
    that stimulate
    mathematical thinking. She also
    offers children standard
    tasks for addition, subtraction, etc., but
    always encourages children
    find your own solutions. Camii
    vehemently opposed to traditional
    the practice of teaching algorithms (for example,
    teacher tells child to fold in
    column 18 and 17 by adding 8 and 7,
    postponing
    mentally 1, etc.). Algorithms, she says,
    teach children to follow mechanical
    procedures without the slightest understanding,
    why do they do it. Children in
    constructivist class invent
    methods that
    make sense to them (for example, “I will add
    two tens, and 7 and 8
    I will add later). They come up with methods
    for a striking solution
    difficult tasks, and their methods are often
    are very original
    (Kamii, 1989, 1994).

    Camii
    applies its own approach to almost everyone
    aspect of school life
    including “disciplinary issues”.
    If one of the children starts an argument during
    card game time, the teacher should
    resist
    desire to intervene and resolve the problem
    for them. Instead, the teacher
    may ask: can you think of
    solution that satisfied
    everyone? (Kamii, 1985, p. 48). Thus the teacher
    encourages children
    for them to work on
    settlement of the issue
    justice.

    Education
    according to Piaget, says Kamii (Kamii, 1973), often
    means giving children more
    time to work on assignments
    than is customary in schools. Camii
    describes, for example, lessons
    on the specific gravity of substances.
    Children in primary school
    are usually surprised when they see that
    the pin plunges into
    water, and a piece of wood (whose dimensions
    more) floats on the surface.
    And usually children need a certain
    time to understand
    why is this happening. Therefore, teachers
    tempted to explain
    response to your students, especially when
    The teacher wants to move on to a new topic. But
    Camii urges the teacher to wait.
    Will be much
    better, she says, if the children continue
    think and ask
    question about what is happening than if they
    “will hear the answer and at the same time
    learn that the answer always comes from
    teacher’s mouth” (p. 225).

    Camii
    (Kamii, 1985, 1989, 1994) assessed
    research
    own method of teaching arithmetic in
    elementary grades. She discovered
    that in traditional standardized
    tests her children
    show about the same results
    as children taught by ordinary
    methods. But her children demonstrate
    greater understanding
    the logic behind their work. Except
    In addition, they think much more independently.
    When the teacher tried to help one
    first grader
    with a hint, she said:
    “Wait, I need to think
    herself” (Kamii, 1985, p. 235). For Kamiya such
    the answers are very important.
    Like Rousseau and Montessori, Camille is more
    interested
    not the amount of knowledge acquired by children, but
    their desire to think for themselves.

    Estimated

    Beginning
    since about 1960, Piaget’s ideas have stimulated
    huge number
    research and theoretical discussions.
    We don’t have the opportunity
    tell here about everyone, but we can
    review the main trends and
    Problems. I organize this section around
    some basic questions.

    Confirm
    whether Piaget’s theory other studies,
    using
    his assignments?

    How
    mentioned at the beginning of the chapter, own
    Piaget’s research
    have been criticized for their scientific
    limitations. For example, he
    based some conclusions
    observing three
    own children – hardly
    representative sample. Respectively,
    when Piaget was rediscovered at the beginning
    1960s, many wanted to check
    whether their results will be repeated.

    Sequence
    stages.
    B
    In general, repeated studies
    using the tasks of Piaget himself,
    confirm its sequence
    stages. That is, the children seem to
    go through
    sub-stages, stages and periods are in order,
    originally discovered
    Piaget. His stages showed themselves especially
    well applied
    to the sensorimotor period and to the scientific and
    mathematical
    reasoning in later stages.
    (Almy, Chittenden & Miller,
    1966; Corman & Escalona, ​​1969; E. Evans, 1975; Lovell, 1968;
    Niemark, 1975). The results were somewhat
    less certain
    for Piaget’s proposed stages of social
    thinking, such
    like animism (Looft & Bartz, 1969), heteronomy
    (Kohlberg,
    1964) and egocentrism (Damon, 1983, pp. 120-121), but in
    in general
    really young children
    different from older children
    age, as Piaget discovered. These
    re-studies,
    It should be noted that, as a rule, they used
    Piaget’s own assignments. Later we will provide
    research results that
    modified Piaget’s tasks and thus
    thus subjected some
    Piaget’s conclusions are questioned.

    Versatility
    stages.
    Although
    Piagetian sequences got
    confirmation, his position, what stages
    are common modes
    thinking was justified to a lesser extent.
    That is, researchers
    found rather weak correlations
    among the tasks to be
    be decided on the basis of a common structure
    thinking characteristic of a certain
    stages (Flavell, 1977, p.
    248; Gelman & Baillaigeon, 1983, p. 169-172). For example,
    child who
    demonstrates an understanding of conservation
    liquids, may not show
    understanding of class membership
    which, it would seem, must be accompanied
    first. Piaget himself recognized that children
    learn the principle of solving various
    tasks at different speeds – he called
    similar unevenness
    decalage ,
    – but assumed greater consistency
    results,
    than the one that was found.

    AT
    1980s these generally negative results
    prompted many psychologists
    (e.g. Bandura, 1986, pp. 484-485) speak with
    reject recommendations completely.
    from Piaget’s stages. Children, psychologists said,
    do not go through common periods, in
    who are their thinking
    is a reflection of major mental
    structures. They simply
    master multiple skills
    serving specific
    tasks. Children learn arithmetic
    skills, skills
    reading, communication skills, etc.
    etc., and there are no
    common mental structures behind
    them. (With this position
    Some psychologists agreed
    sympathetic theories
    Piaget – for example, Flavell, 1985, p. 92-93.) However
    last
    time, after evaluating additional
    data, many psychologists
    ready to reconsider
    (Flavell, Miller & Miller, 1993, p. 159; Siegler, 1998; p. 57). I
    I believe this is a reasonable decision.

    Let’s take
    for example, children aged 5-7 years. Sheldon
    White (White,
    1965,1970) and others (e.g. Kegan, 1985; Sameroff & Haith,
    1996) collected
    numerous data to
    assume that in
    during this period important things happen to children
    psychological changes. changes,
    associated with this transition from 5 to 7 years,
    go far beyond the answers to
    Piaget’s assignments. They include
    behavior in a variety of contexts
    learning. Before this transition, children
    usually impulsive, easily distracted
    and full
    fantasies. After that they become
    more consistent, rational
    and prudent. In all cultures
    peace it
    the time when children begin to trust
    performance of important duties, including
    caring for babies (Weisner, 1996). Thereby
    the presence during this period of an important stage
    transition can be considered
    proven. And, as White notes (White,
    1965, 1996), Piaget’s theory
    might help to explain this
    transition: children begin
    approach life more rationally,
    in a reasonable way, because
    that they form concrete-operational
    thinking.

    We
    we see, therefore, that the proposed
    Piaget stage-specific
    operations has great potential
    value. Of course,
    the problem of versatility remains
    stages – there is a weak consistency
    results when performing various
    assignments
    Piaget. Some researchers consider
    that higher levels of versatility
    may be found in certain
    moments within common periods (Siegler,
    1998, p. 57; Uzgiris, 1964). White (1996) suggests that
    that final confirmation
    stage theory should be sought in everyday
    life. I agree with
    his opinion. For example, we can find
    what an 8 year old boy
    can take care of her little one
    sister because he can
    perform specific operations in many
    areas. overcoming
    self-centeredness, he can foresee her
    unique needs; using
    logical operations, it can distribute
    supply of juice for the day and buy in the store
    things she needs, etc. Boy
    may also carry out specific
    operations and many others.
    areas, for example, doubting miracles
    and in existence
    Santa Claus. In other words, rationalism
    the boy is
    general characteristics of his personality.

    Reach
    whether people of higher stages?

    Very
    interesting is the following fact:
    most adults usually do not
    demonstrate the higher stages of the stage
    formal operations
    when performing standard tasks
    Piaget. Most of the adults
    belonging to the middle class
    use formal operations
    only sometimes (Kuhn, Langer, Kohlberg & Hahn, 1977;
    Neimark, 1975),
    and in many small villages and tribal
    communities the majority
    adults almost never
    use any of the formal
    operations (Cole & Cole, 1993, p. 613; Dasen, 1972). These
    data is not
    necessarily contradict
    Piaget’s theories. There are no theoretical
    reasons why all people owe
    reach his highest
    stages; perhaps their thinking is not
    faced sufficient
    difficulties to climb this
    level. However, these data
    puzzle.

    Piaget
    (Piaget, 1972) tried to find an explanation for this
    facts. Probably,
    he said, most people master
    to a certain extent
    formal-operational thinking,
    but resort to
    formal operations predominantly
    in areas related to
    their special interests or abilities.
    Possibly an auto mechanic
    does not reason in a formal, theoretical
    key about philosophy or
    physics, but he still uses
    formal operations when reveals
    malfunctions in the car. Purposeful
    law student
    faculty may not use
    formal transactions.
    when faced with a problem
    from the field of chemistry,
    but he will do so when discussing matters
    concerning the constitution.
    Likewise, Talkin and Conner
    (Tulkin & Konner, 1973) admit that adults
    in small tribal communities
    be unable to demonstrate
    formal operations
    when performing Piaget’s tasks related to
    with mathematical and scientific reasoning,
    but they will use them when they decide
    problems that are vital to them
    importance. For example,
    when the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert discuss,
    how to track down an animal, then put forward and
    weigh the hypotheses in a manner that
    requires
    using the highest logical and
    analytical skills
    human mind” (p. 35).

    Piaget
    acknowledged, therefore, that at the highest
    stages people don’t
    demonstrate great persistence
    when performing a wide
    range of intellectual tasks –
    definitely not that much
    consistency that can be expected
    earlier stages.
    Instead, people use higher
    stages of thinking
    in their areas of greatest interest.

    Valid
    Do children learn on their own?

    Maybe,
    the most controversial is
    the following statement
    Piaget: cognitive development is
    spontaneous process. Children,
    he says, form cognitive
    structures on their own,
    without direct training
    side of adults. The most undeniable
    proof of spontaneous learning
    comes from observations
    Piaget for babies who achieve
    huge intellectual
    progress through simple research
    environment before anyone takes over
    labor to educate them. In fact, how
    as soon as we begin to teach the child, then
    often seem to suppress it
    natural curiosity. Children at school
    become indifferent, lazy,
    obstinate and begin to fear failure.
    The main task of education, how can
    assume is
    releasing that fearless
    the curiosity with which children enter
    life.

    When
    Piaget said that children learn
    on your own, then had no
    mind that they are learning in a vacuum. Other
    children can stimulate and expose
    test the child’s thinking, and, apparently,
    adults can
    do the same. As we saw earlier,
    Kamiy asks children stimulating
    questions that make them think.
    But Piaget did not think that especially
    productive attempts to teach
    children right
    responses or procedures. Against,
    genuine learning
    comes from experience that awakens
    children’s curiosity and
    them the opportunity to come to independent
    decisions.

    Tem
    at least many psychologists, especially
    American, adhering
    traditions of learning theory, believe that
    training provided
    adults is more important than Piaget thought.
    To demonstrate
    this, they conducted a series of “training
    research, most of which
    attempts have been made to teach
    preservation of 4-5 year old children.

    One
    of the important results is the following:
    conservation principle
    teaching is surprisingly difficult (E. Evans, 1975;
    Flavell, 1963, p.
    377; Liebert, Poulos & Marmor, 1977, p. 176-179). For example,
    hard to teach
    principle of conservation, simply explaining
    and reinforcing the right
    answers. And if the child still succeeds
    in the performance of one
    tasks, this ability is not always
    carried over to new assignments.
    In addition, training does not always allow
    fairly deep roots.
    People told me how they felt
    would be able to form
    the child has an understanding of the principle of conservation
    liquids; but when
    they then asked the child to do
    choice between fluids
    he liked to drink (like lemonade), child
    insisted on taking a glass
    bigger size.

    However
    the principle of conservation, apparently, everything
    or you can teach.
    In the first completely successful experiment
    Gelman (Gelman, 1969)
    taught children the preservation of number and length,
    reinforcing their reaction
    to the most relevant stimuli
    for example, the number of objects
    per row, not per row length. Education
    worked, and, moreover, 60% of children
    immediately demonstrated a new
    ability to understand the conservation of matter
    and liquids. But the learning process
    Gelman was different
    labor intensity. Training continued
    two days and consisted of
    192 approaches. You can ask a question, reflect
    whether exactly similar
    methods how children learn the principle
    saving in your daily
    life. You may also ask,
    what impact
    such training affects the senses
    children. When children decide
    tasks on their own, they acquire
    confidence in one’s abilities
    make discoveries. When do they participate?
    in an intensive training program
    which they are systematically rewarded for
    answers,
    given in the manner in which they
    usually do not answer, they have
    may develop a habit of distrust
    own
    thinking.

    Piaget
    (Piaget, 1970) made a number of additional
    thoughts that
    appropriate here. We often
    We assume that spontaneous
    development is undesirable because it
    happens slowly;
    direct learning seems
    attractive because it can
    speed up the course of events. However, Piaget
    pointed out that when
    Gruber studied the development of a sense of constancy
    objects in kittens,
    then found them going through
    sequence of stages
    much faster than babies. But kittens
    “do not progress
    further, and you can ask a question, not
    does the slower
    faster forward pace
    progress” (Piaget, 1970,
    R. 111). Piaget also noted that Darwin
    it took
    too much time to articulate
    their original ideas
    and Piaget wonders if
    slowness sometimes
    be one of the conditions for useful
    discoveries. Thus Piaget
    calls into question the assumption that
    slowness is undesirable
    and admits that each child can
    be own
    optimal pace through
    stages.

    Did you underestimate
    Piaget’s abilities of children?

    AT
    In recent years, a number of researchers
    (some of them were
    educational research) tried
    to show that Piaget underestimated
    abilities of children: children are much more
    smarter than he thought.
    To demonstrate this, researchers
    changed his tasks or invented
    new.

    AT
    experiments with infants
    researchers gathered
    evidence that babies understand
    permanence of objects develops
    earlier than Piaget claimed; when the kids
    watch movies, they look for hidden
    objects at an age when they are still
    unable to look for them in ordinary life
    (Goubet & Clifton, 1998). How
    and in the case of the neonatal study,
    laboratory
    experiments seem to
    reveal nascent abilities to
    how they appear
    in a natural setting.

    AT
    much more research
    there have been attempts to demonstrate
    that Piaget underestimated intellectual
    capabilities
    preoperative child. Researchers
    tried to find ways to change or
    simplifying Piaget’s tasks related to
    conservation,
    egocentricity, classification and
    other questions
    to show that 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds
    may actually
    think like older children
    and adults. Similar
    results, they say, correct
    Piaget’s description
    young children as cognitively
    helpless.

    For example,
    Borke (1975) suggests that small
    children are not as self-centered as
    Piaget thought. Her research shows
    that although 3-4 year olds experience
    Difficulties completing Piaget’s task
    with a mountain, they can act less
    self-centered
    in the case of simpler variants of this
    tasks. Other
    the researchers got similar results.
    So apparently
    even many two-year-olds know that the party
    the cube they
    see is different from the side that
    sees a person who is
    facing them (description of these studies
    see Gelman & Baillargeon,
    1983 and Siegler, 1998, p. 58-59).

    Researchers
    also tried to demonstrate
    that small
    children can think rationally by doing
    mathematical
    and scientific assignments. Gelman (Gelman, 1972), to
    For example, it assumes
    that young children have a certain
    ability to keep
    number. Piaget, as you remember, showed
    that when we shorten
    or we lengthen a number of objects, preoperational
    children think
    that number is changing. Apparently on
    they are more influenced by perceptual
    configuration – what the row looks like –
    than logic or number.
    However, in Piaget’s studies, series are often
    contained up to eight
    objects, Gelman also offered 3-5-year-olds
    smaller children
    object sets – two, three or four
    object – and found
    that children ignored length changes
    and continued to build
    their judgments on the same number. So
    Thus, in the case of these small
    sets they demonstrated understanding
    conservation.

    Can
    note that Gelman’s results are not
    necessarily contradict
    Piaget’s conclusions. It is possible that the change
    such small rows causes very
    slight perceptual change
    so we don’t
    know if small children can ignore
    perceptual changes in favor of logic
    or numbers. Nevertheless, Gelman showed
    that small
    children begin to think in numbers
    categories. They are not so
    incompetent, she says, as claimed
    Piaget.

    AT
    another type of experiment by Bryant and
    Trabasso (Bryant, 1974) tried to show
    that the difficulties of young children with
    logical
    conclusions are in fact
    memory problems. Piaget
    showed that although the child sees that
    stick A is shorter than stick B and that B is shorter,
    than B, it can’t do logical
    conclusion that A must
    be shorter than W. Bryant and Trabasso,
    however, hypothesized that small
    kids just forget the earlier ones
    comparisons. So they taught the children
    how to remember these comparisons, and
    found that children subsequently
    appear to be capable
    draw logical conclusions. In this way,
    children showed again
    themselves less illogical than expected
    Piaget.

    it
    just a few studies
    who question
    characterization of the thinking of small
    children given by Piaget.
    These and many other studies
    allow us to assume that
    children as young as 3 or
    4 years, already possess some
    from the abilities of adults (Siegler, 1998, p.
    55). These studies
    It should be noted that they have undergone a number of
    criticisms,
    and their results tend to look like
    more convincing in some areas,
    than in others. And yet the results
    testify
    that small children do not
    sheer egocentrism. They are
    may be generally more egocentric,
    than older children
    or adults, but their egocentrism varies
    from task to task.
    As for conservation laws and other
    types of scientific reasoning
    the results, on the contrary, are often less
    convincing. While doing
    these tasks rational abilities
    little children,
    as Gelman herself admits (Gelman, 1979),
    seem weak and
    difficult to identify. However, she and others
    the researchers insist
    what young children can demonstrate
    the beginnings of rational thought, and Piaget,
    therefore, was wrong when
    portrayed
    their cognitively helpless.

    AT
    end of his career, Piaget briefly
    responded to the accusation that
    would he describe small children
    too negative. He
    pointed out (Piaget, 1970) that the preoperational
    thinking contains
    also a number of positive components. So,
    at that time children realize
    qualitative identities, for example, that
    the fact that the child is now
    and in infancy it is the same
    human. However, Piaget
    went on to argue that the pre-operational
    thinking in general
    still illogical, static and conditioned
    perception, irreversible,
    full of mistakes, etc. That is, he never
    raised strong objections
    in response to the accusation that his view of
    pre-operational thinking
    negative and pessimistic.

    Now
    I would like to address this issue with
    general
    development, as I believe they would
    Rousseau and Werner. Primarily,
    we can note that the critics of Piaget,
    seems to be signing
    equality between “positive”,
    optimistic view of
    childhood and early, rapid development. We
    you might ask how Rousseau did it,
    why the statement that development
    logical structures
    takes time, certainly pessimistic.
    Piaget himself brought this
    argument in response to teaching research,
    and he could repeat
    him here.

    Except
    Moreover, Piaget’s critics suggest that
    thinking deserves
    praise only if it
    rational and logical
    like ours. They never really
    considered the possibility that thinking
    the child is qualitatively different. Piaget started
    their research,
    mindful of this opportunity, and he
    drew a convincing
    picture of what the difference is
    pre-operational thinking.
    It is perceptual, not
    logic, it is animistic
    etc. In this way, Piaget could indicate
    what is pre-operational
    thinking is not so much secondary to
    to the logic of adults,
    how much is quality
    a different view of the world.

    But
    Piaget never developed this idea. Instead of
    he was so into it
    comparison of pre-operational thinking
    with the logic of adults,
    that he could not go beyond the boundaries of “magic
    circle” of his shortcomings. In his writings
    small
    the child is constantly
    unable to understand” basic
    concepts, “continues to do the same
    the same mistakes, etc. (Piaget &
    Szeminska, 1941, p. 13.142). Piaget failed completely
    consider pre-operational
    thinking on its own and didn’t appreciate it
    unique
    merits. In particular, he did not pay
    attention to Werner’s guess,
    that perceptual and animistic
    (physiognomic) orientation
    goes hand in hand with art
    vision of the world and possibly
    it is the latter that develops in
    small child. Available
    data (Gardner, 1980) about being small
    kids are surprisingly good
    artists.
    By 6 or 7 years of age, they
    make drawings together
    characterized by freshness, vitality
    and great composition. Thereafter
    age their creativity becomes more
    geometric,
    frozen and lifeless. Apparently
    starts to take over
    logical intelligence. In addition, rich
    fantasy and theatrical
    playfulness of a small child
    correspond to the mental organization,
    which is more akin to art than
    logic.

    So
    way, Piaget could say that each
    period has its
    unconditional advantages and should
    considered on an individual basis
    positions. A small child may or may not
    be a good logician
    but perhaps his thinking is directed
    mostly on the other side. At
    young children are formed more quickly
    artistic
    orientation, and it differs like this
    natural grace
    and vivacity that many great artists
    they said they
    constantly trying to resurrect it
    (Gardner, 1973, p. 21). Scientists
    could also recognize some special
    qualities of pre-operational thinking.
    As Werner noted, scientific inspiration
    maybe
    start with a return to perceptions
    and intuitive insights
    that are filled with feelings, fantasy
    and imagination.
    Unfortunately, Piaget was so carried away
    formal logic that
    did not pay attention to such possibilities.

    So
    way, Piaget really portrayed
    pre-operational
    children in a very negative way,
    focusing on logic
    flaws in their thinking. However, if
    we want to fix this picture, we don’t
    must be like his critics
    and try to show that thinking
    little children are almost the same
    logical, like ours. It will be better if
    we will take into account the possibility
    that the thinking of young children can be
    own
    qualities and merit.

    Conclusion

    So
    Thus, we see that Piaget’s theory
    subjected to numerous critical
    comments. Controversy with Piaget
    such great theorists
    like Bandura, Vygotsky and Chomsky. In our
    days literally
    everyone is seized by the desire to measure their strength
    with Piaget and contrast their ideas
    his views.
    This in itself is evidence of
    the significance of Piaget’s theory.
    And you can vouch that when all the passions
    settle down, Piaget’s theory is still
    will remain in effect. For, with all her
    weaknesses, it covers the most important
    aspects of cognitive development. 936, is still used in some areas of education and psychology. It focuses on children from birth to adolescence and characterizes various stages of development, including: build their own knowledge on the basis of their experience.

  • Children learn things on their own, without the influence of adults or older children.
  • Nature motivates children to learn. They don’t need rewards as motivation.
  • There are four stages in total:

    • sensorimotor stage
    • preoperative stage
    • specific operational stage
    • formal operational stage

    The stages cover the range of ages from birth to adulthood.

    Piaget’s four stages

    Piaget’s stages depend on age and are marked by important characteristics of thought processes. They also include goals that children need to achieve as they progress through a particular milestone.

    Sensormotor

    The sensorimotor stage covers children from birth to 18–24 months of age. Characteristics include motor activity without the use of symbols. Everything learned is based on experience or trial and error.

    The main goal at this stage is to establish an understanding of the permanence of the object – in other words, to know that the object still exists even if you can’t see it or it’s hidden.

    Preoperative

    The preoperative phase is observed in children aged 2 to 7 years. Memory and imagination develop. Children at this age are self-centered, which means they find it hard to think outside of their own perspective.

    The main achievement of this stage is the ability to give meaning to objects using language. This is a symbolic reflection on things. Symbolic thinking is a type of thinking in which a word or object is used to represent something other than itself.

    Service concrete

    Children are much less egocentric at the stage of a concrete operation. It falls on the age of 7 to 11 years and is characterized by a more logical and methodical manipulation of symbols.

    The main goal at this stage is for the child to start working in his head. This is called operational thinking, and it allows children to solve problems without physically meeting things in the real world.

    Formal operational

    Children 11 years of age and older enter the formal operational Piaget stage. The milestone of this period is the use of symbols to understand abstract concepts. Not only that, older children and adults can also think about multiple variables and make hypotheses based on previous knowledge.

    Piaget believed that people of all ages develop intellectually. But he also believed that once a person reaches the stage of formal exploitation, it is more about building knowledge than changing how it is acquired or understood.

    Schema, assimilation, accommodation and balancing

    In his theory, Piaget uses many terms to explain cognitive development and how it is achieved at different stages.

    Diagram is the term he used to refer to the building blocks of knowledge. You can think of circuits as different index cards inside the brain. Each of these informs the individual on how to respond to new information or situations.

    For example, imagine a person who goes to the grocery store to buy milk. In this case, the schema is a learned pattern of behavior that can be applied to a given situation. A person remembers how to walk between the aisles, find milk, choose the preferred type, and then pay at the checkout. Whenever a person is tasked with getting milk, that particular “scenario” or schema is recalled from memory.

    Other important terms:

    • assimilation takes an existing schema and applies it to a new situation or object.
    • Housing changes approaches when the existing scheme does not work in a particular situation.
    • Balancing is the driving force that drives all development forward. Piaget did not believe that development was sustainable. Instead, he moved by leaps and bounds according to experience.

    How can educators use charts?

    Parents and teachers can help the child create a variety of schemes to promote learning and development at all stages. This can be achieved by giving children a lot of contact with the outside world. Exposure to a variety of learning-by-doing experiences from an early age can help create these internal index cards. Then, as the children get older, it’s about expanding the experience and applying it to new, even hypothetical, situations.

    How to apply Piaget’s steps to learning and development

    So how exactly can Piaget’s steps be applied to education? Essentially, it is about recognizing the stage a child is currently in and adjusting to that level of development.

    Teachers and parents can help by providing children with different experiences or ways to explore and experiment with their environment. Through this experience, children can gain a practical understanding of various concepts.

    For young children entering preschool and kindergarten, Piaget’s theories are more in line with playful school programs or environments in which children are offered opportunities for trial and error and interaction with the real world.

    Piaget’s philosophy can be included in any educational program.

    Examples include:

    • Giving chance for trial and error. Focus on the learning process, not the end result.
    • Providing children with visual aids and other props, such as models, to illustrate different ideas and concepts.
    • Use real life examples to draw complex ideas, such as math word problems.
    • Providing the ability to classify or group information. Outlines and hierarchies are good examples and allow children to create new ideas based on previous knowledge.
    • Suggesting problems that require analytical or logical thinking. In this case, puzzles can be used as a tool.

    You can also help your child at all stages, adapting to his specific learning style:

    Sensorimotor

    • Use real objects in play activities.
    • Connect the game to the five senses.
    • Implement a daily routine for the youngest children. They are predictable and can be very helpful in developing communication.

    Preoperative

    • Children learn best by doing. Let them actively interact with various things in their environment, including books, people, games, and objects.
    • Ask questions while the children go about their daily activities and let them come up with their own ideas.
    • Pay attention to new things and encourage children to ask you questions about these things.

    Service Concrete

    • Create timelines, 3D models, science experiments, and other ways to manipulate abstract concepts.
    • Use puzzles and riddles to develop analytical thinking.
    • Focus on open questions.

    Formal operational

    • Offer step-by-step explanations of concepts and use diagrams and other visual aids.
    • Explore hypothetical situations. You can link them to current events or social issues.
    • Expand your concepts whenever possible. For example, if you are talking about the Civil War, discuss other issues that have divided the country since that time.

    Cons of Piaget’s theory

    There are some critical remarks about Piaget’s stages. In particular, researchers in the 1960s and 1970s argued that Piaget may have underestimated children’s abilities by using confusing terms and especially difficult tasks in his observations. In other studies, children have successfully demonstrated knowledge of certain concepts or skills when presented in a simpler way.

    Piaget’s theory also assumes that children of a certain stage will first of all be at this stage in all directions with all the tasks assigned to them. Other researchers have found that there are a range of abilities associated with cognitive tasks. In other words, some children may excel or struggle in one area over another.

    Piaget’s theory also explains that attempts to teach children particularly complex concepts would not be successful. However, in some cases, children can pick up cutting-edge ideas with even brief instruction. Children may be more adaptable and competent than Piaget’s stages suggest.

    Finally, Piaget’s work focused primarily on middle-class white children from developed countries. As a result, its results may be skewed for this subgroup of people and may not apply directly to other groups or places.

    Piaget vs. Vygotsky

    Lev Vygotsky developed his theory of child development at the same time that Piaget was developing his own theory. Like Piaget, Vygotsky believed that children develop in stages. Unlike Piaget, Vygotsky believed that learning and development are linked to social interactions and culture. While Piaget believed that children learn by doing things, Vygotsky believed that they learn when they are shown.

    Piaget versus Montessori

    Maria Montessori shared some ideas with Piaget, including how children go through the stages. Their theories are similar until children reach the age of three. At school, Montessori classes are more child-oriented. Piaget’s classrooms are more teacher-focused and routine-focused, although they do have flexibility and opportunities for child-oriented activities.

    Conclusion

    The work of Jean Piaget helped people understand how knowledge is formed at different stages of childhood, starting from birth. His philosophy is still used today in classrooms from preschool to 12th grade. Understanding the different stages can help you better understand your child and help them learn.

    The Secret of Montessori

    Let’s go back to the school of dear Madame Montessori. The most important thing is that children do not feel the burden of learning, as they learn everything by playing. Secondly, the goal is to develop all the organs and senses of the child. Very little space is devoted to mere memorization.

    Mahatma Gandhi

    The secret of success

    The history of pedagogy has preserved hundreds of names, but real schools that have survived after the death of the authors can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Maria Montessori stands in this honorary row. This happened not only because many of her insights found scientific confirmation, but also because Maria found the key to translating her ideas into everyday pedagogical practice.

    Her system was not built in one day. She was friends with the founder of genetic psychology, Jean Piaget (for some time he personally headed the Montessori Society of Geneva), corresponded with the child psychologist Anna Freud. Under their influence, she clarifies the conclusions of her observations of the patterns of child development. But in many ways she remains a doctor and comes from the physiology of children. Even in the concept of freedom, she puts a biological meaning and understands by it, first of all, independence.

    Using examples from her own teaching practice, Maria proves that an adult should not do something for a child, but help him act independently. This is special work. After all, the baby, getting into our world, sees it as alien and unsuitable for his life.

    The child has poor coordination of movements, he is not confident in himself and does not know what to do with the objects around him. The kid is dependent on giants, who are called adults and who, without thinking about him, cut the world for themselves. It is difficult for a baby to unbutton the buttons on a jacket, tie a lace on a shoe, move his chair to a convenient place.

    Montessori proposes to give the child the opportunity to do this and much more as early as 2.5–3 years. The teacher (adult) only helps him. He creates order in those things that are needed for the development of the child, and there are a lot of them. All these cups, trays, sponges and brushes, as well as sticks and cubes, beads and rods, cards and boxes, put them in disorder, can only cause a feeling of powerlessness before the chaos of the world. Montessori suggested arranging them in a certain strict logic, and teaching kids from the first day in the class to maintain the established order. Not only and not so much because adults want it, but because it is more convenient for the children themselves.

    Montessori generally believes that order is organic for a child, but he does not always know how to organize it himself. An adult can create conditions in which order is simple and natural. He does not have long and exhausting conversations with the baby, he does not use figurative allegories, the morality of which jumps out like a devil out of a box, leaving only a feeling of bewilderment. The teacher offers the child to accept only a few clear rules, one of which is: “I took it, worked it out, put it back.” But in order for the work to be useful, the teacher gives the kid a short (2-3 minutes) lesson, showing how to handle objects in order to achieve results, and not to despair and not lose interest.

    Interest is the first thing that Montessori highlights in his pedagogy. The second is an individual approach. This, of course, does not mean that each child has a separate teacher. Everything is somewhat different. Each child during free work chooses what he likes to do, and the teacher shows him how to cope with the task. Then the child works on his own, because the material, without outside interference, will show him the mistake he made.

    The child has freedom of choice right after he crosses the threshold of the class, because only he himself knows exactly what he needs to develop right now. Although there are some guidelines here. So, M. Montessori drew attention, and modern psychology confirmed that every child from 0 to 6 years old has sensitive periods in which he easily and naturally learns certain things. If you are late and do not take advantage of the opportunities that have appeared in children, then they may lose interest in this for life or return the mistakes and accidents of these periods in the most unexpected and unpleasant forms after the age of six.

    Montessori urges us not to speed up the development of the child, but also not to miss the moment and spread a self-assembly tablecloth in front of him in time, on which a reduced safe model of our entire world will open. First, the baby’s eyes will run wide, and then they will find what he needs here and now. We just need to remember that on our tablecloth are not simple objects, but selected by a long observation of what and how helps children in development.

    Surprisingly, if the teacher does everything right, and the parents do not really interfere with him, the child has an inner need to master and learn about the world around him. It turns out that in order for a child to teach (and better educate) himself, he no longer needs to be punished or encouraged, you just need to throw a “coal” into the furnace of his mind in time, and even better, show how and where to find this coal. Maria herself writes: “It is not true that the Montessori teacher is inactive when the ordinary teacher is active: all activity is ensured by the active preparation and guidance of the teacher, his subsequent “inactivity” is a sign of success.”

    The main task of an adult is to help children learn to concentrate on work that is interesting for them. In this complex matter, the teacher goes through three stages. The first is the preparation of an environment that is attractive to the baby and convenient for his work. The second is the destruction of the activity of individual children, which hinders the progress and development of others. At this difficult stage, the teacher shows the naughty that he is loved even so, restless and unbearable, and at the same time tirelessly helps the child find something that will interest him and help him concentrate on work. The energy of the child is redistributed from chaotic splashing to constructive activity aimed at development. At the third stage, the most important thing for the teacher is not to interfere with the baby, not to disturb his searches and his work.

    Most of the teacher’s influences occur indirectly, through the environment or with the help of rules that he invents with the children. The whole appearance of an adult and his enthusiasm captures children and helps the teacher to establish a trusting relationship with each child, to create that unique atmosphere that Montessori classes are so different from.

    Montessori pedagogy returned to Russia only in 1992. Several teams simultaneously took on the task of preparing teachers for preschool Montessori classes. But only the Montessori Center manages to establish contacts with the AMI course, which is conducted in Munich by Montessori trainer Maria Roth. This course from 1993 to 1998 graduated eight envoys of our country. They became the teaching backbone of the course organized by the Montessori Center. In 1998, the Deputy Director of the Center Sophia Somnitelnaya met in Munich with AMI General Secretary Renilda Montessori and received approval to open an Associative AMI Teacher Training Course for Preschool Classes in Moscow. So Russian teachers finally entered the European community.

    Part two

    Chapter 1

    Education of a child

    Let’s face the impressive facts of the presence of a spiritual life in a child, the most tender forms of existence of which remain unnoticed. An adult does not want to recognize it and thereby violates the plan for building a child’s soul. The environment of an adult is insignificant for the life of a child. Often it is a collection of obstacles in which the child develops his defensive powers, is forced to adapt and is subject to all sorts of suggestive influences.

    In our time, they begin to study the properties of the child’s soul from the moment when the child moves away from the natural, normal path of development. From this moment on, children become an object for education. This means that child psychology needs a fundamental revision. We have already learned a lot: behind every unexpected reaction of a child lies a secret. Every childish whim is an expression of a deeply hidden cause, which means not only a superficial clash of children’s protective forces with an environment unsuitable for the child. As if some kind of fog prevents the child’s soul from coming out of its secluded haven and expressing itself.

    It is clear that all these episodes behind which the efforts of the child’s soul for self-building are hidden, all these whims and struggles do not give us an idea of ​​the child’s personality. They are nothing more than the sum of character traits. And yet there must be a personality, because that spiritual embryo, a child whose spiritual development is denied, follows a constructive plan of construction. Thus, in the child, as we see it, an independent person is placed, a living captive being who needs to be freed. This is the essential task of education.

    Researchers of psychoanalysis and the psychology of the “unknown” find a significant difference in the study of the adult and the child. It consists in the following: what is hidden in the adult himself is repressed by the individual himself. Therefore, the individual must turn to a doctor who will help him unravel the tangle in which are hidden, as if buried, complex symbols and pretense accumulated throughout life. While what is hidden from us in a child is blamed on him. But we need to influence the environment of the child in order to enable him to freely express his personality. He is going through a period of creation and gathering, and nothing else is needed but to open the door for him. What enters into his being from the void and turns from the potential into the actual cannot yet give rise to any complications. The energy of the child is included in the work and, gaining momentum, cannot in itself lead to deviations. This means that when we prepare an open environment suitable for a child at a given moment in his life, the child’s soul spontaneously opens up. The veil is removed from the secret of the child. Isn’t it all the same aspirations that were lost in the endless labyrinths of education?

    So, a truly new upbringing consists, firstly, in the discovery of the secret of the child, and, secondly, in his liberation. The problem of existence as such consists in existence itself. Only then follows a long, like the very period of development from a child to an adult, the second chapter, which is called: “Help that should be offered to the child.”

    But the canvas for both chapters is an environment that facilitates the growth of the child. It should minimize all barriers to development. It is to this environment that all children’s energies are directed, it is this environment that supplies all the means that affect the child’s activity.

    But the adult himself also finds himself in this environment of the child. He must adapt to the needs of the child, help his independence, he has no right to become an obstacle for him, replacing him in the main activities and development.

    This is what characterizes the main principle of our method of education, which is carried out in this environment. In our method, the teacher became a new discovery, and this aroused great interest and discussion: we are talking about a passive teacher who is trying to overcome the contradictions that might appear in his own activity. It affects the child in such a way that the activity comes from the child himself. In the role of a teacher, we mean that person who will be satisfied to see a child acting on his own inner urges, making progress. He does not deprive the child of his own merits. This teacher should take as a model John the Baptist, who said: “The one who follows me is stronger than I.” We also know one more provision of our method, which so far has not so resolutely focused attention on respect for the personality of the child.

    These three main points (environment, teacher, respect for the personality of the child – approx. ed. ) were carried out in our educational institutions, which were first called children’s homes, and this name well denoted our idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe environment in the family. Anyone who has followed this parenting movement knows that there has been a lot of controversy over our orphanages. Strong objections were raised by the revolution in relations between adults and children: a teacher without a chair, without the usual authority, almost without teaching functions. The central point of all his activities is the child who teaches himself and is free to choose his occupation and movements. Many do not consider this a utopia, but still believe that there are many exaggerations.

    On the other hand, the idea that the material environment should correspond to the growth of the child deserved universal applause. Our spacious room, filled with flowing streams of light, with low windows decorated with flowers, with low furniture of various shapes, looks like a modern residential apartment. Tables, an armchair, bright curtains, low cabinets from which you can take or put back your things – all this really seems to be a practically significant improvement in children’s life. And I think that most of the orphanages have retained these signs as the main characteristic principles to this day.

    After many years of research and experience, we feel the need to return once again to the story of problems and especially to the origin of our method. It would be a great mistake to assume that all kinds of observation of children led us to the bold conjecture that the child has a hidden nature, and that then thoughts of a new school and methods of education sprouted from this intuitive idea. The hidden cannot be seen. The vague notion that the child has a dual nature would not induce us to say: “Now we want to try to prove it experimentally.”

    The new must be born from its own strong energy, and often it is enough just what is shown on your doubting eyes, as if you were blind. This blind man simply rejects the new as superfluous objects that interfere with his world. The new must constantly invade his world so that he finally sees it in his field of vision. Then he will recognize him and greet him boisterously. But how strong is the joy of seeing, at last, a new light! Enthusiasm leads him to conjectures, assumptions, because he created this new light himself, although he did nothing but see the open signs himself. Then, at some point, he managed to learn and do what is written in the Gospel: “The Kingdom of Heaven is still like a merchant looking for good pearls, who found one precious pearl, went and sold everything he had, and bought it.” It has always been the most difficult thing for us to notice the new and establish ourselves in it, because it is in front of the new that the gates of our perception are locked. The wealth of the mind is like the closed salon of the nobility. Anyone wishing to become a member must be represented by someone who is already known in this salon. In other words, he must go “from the familiar to the unfamiliar.” The new should not break in or creep in, because this will cause an unexpected reaction and confusion in the cabin.

    Without excitement or doubt, A. Volta watched how the separated dead limbs of the frog began to tremble, but he confidently asserted this fact, and deduced the properties of electricity from it. Sometimes a tiny detail is enough to open up a new perspective, because a person is by nature a seeker, an explorer. But no discovery would be possible without collecting information about these small details. In physics and medicine, we have strict rules for discovering a new phenomenon. A new phenomenon is the discovery of an unknown fact, the existence of which was not expected. Fact is always objective and does not depend on intuition. If we are talking about proving a new fact, then we need to prove that it arises on its own, i. e., isolated from the will and consciousness of the researcher. Then comes the second step – the study of the circumstances under which this phenomenon manifests itself. A direct study of the phenomenon itself can be started only after the formulation of fundamental problems. An open phenomenon is the hallway to the research laboratory. But there is such a form of research when this phenomenon is called up again and again, held, honed so as not to resemble a vision. This research requires real action. Only then will this phenomenon be truly appreciated.

    Our first children’s home is a testament to discoveries that began with a tiny fact that opened up unexpected horizons for us.

    The origin of our method. Some sketches I found among my old papers describe the origin of our method as follows.

    On January 6, 1907, our first school was opened for normal children from three to six years old. I cannot say that it was the first school where my method was active, because the method did not yet exist. But he was to be born very soon. On that day, one could see fifty of the poorest, neglected, obviously frightened children, many of whom were crying. Almost all of them had illiterate parents. So the children were placed in my care.

    Initially, nothing more was envisaged than to gather the small children of the workers in one room so that they would not be left to themselves on the stairs, dirty the walls and generally repair disgrace. To this end, a room was prepared in the building, and I was entrusted with the leadership of this institution, which was predicted to have a “promising future.”

    An indefinable feeling told me that a great deed would begin here. The words of the liturgy that are read in the church on the Day of the Three Kings seemed to me prophetic: “An eclipse will cover the earth … but the Lord will rise over you … and the nations will march, wander, convert.”

    All participants of the opening ceremony were surprised and asked: “Why is it only this Montessori exaggerates the importance of a simple shelter for the poor?”

    I started my work as a farmer who has a suitable seed grain and who was given a fertile piece of land at his disposal so that he could sow it at his discretion. When I touched someone on the ground, I found gold instead of grain. These clods concealed a priceless treasure. Later it turned out that I was not at all the peasant I mentioned – I was Aladdin and, without knowing it, I was holding a magic lamp in my hands, which gave me access to hidden treasures. Before I could begin working with mentally normal children, a series of surprises opened up before me.

    It was logical to assume that aids, which have yielded significant results in the upbringing of mentally retarded children, may be the true key to the upbringing of normal children. What served to strengthen the strength of the spirit and set the mind on the right path, standing on the wrong path, was to help healthy souls in their healthy and correct growth. There is nothing miraculous in all this, and the educational theory that finally emerges from our experiments has a clearly positive and scientific character and is capable of convincing the most sane mind. Nevertheless, the first results overwhelmed me with the greatest surprise and seemed incredible.

    The didactic material that I showed normal children made a different impression on them than it did on imbeciles. A particular object did not just attract a normal child, but attracted his attention. He worked with him incessantly, with admirable concentration. Only after the end of work did the child seem satisfied, rested and happy. Rest was read in those little merry faces, in the contented luminous eyes of children after the voluntarily undertaken work had been done. My material seemed to be the key to the winding of the clock, which is turned only a few times, and the clock works for a long time by itself. It took a long time before I was convinced that this was not an illusion. Before each new experience of this kind, I remained for a long time in disbelief, but at the same time in confusion, trembling. It often happened that I reproached the teacher when she told me what the children were doing. “Don’t tell me lies!” I spoke sternly. And I also remember how she, not offended, with tears of emotion in her eyes, said: “You are right, when I see these things, it seems to me that angels send all this to children.

    About Winwood South Riding

    Looking for a preschool or daycare center your family can call home? Winwood Children’s Center, South Riding offers a warm, homelike environment where young children thrive. A child’s first years of development are precious and we take a skill-based approach to preschool education that focuses on cognitive, social, creative, and physical development.

    Our Preschool’s Programs

    • Infant Daycare (ages 6 weeks to 1 year)
    • Toddler Daycare (ages 1 to 2)
    • Early Learners (ages 2 to 3)
    • Preschool (ages 3 to 4)
    • Pre-Kindergarten (ages 4 to 5)
    • Kindergarten Club (ages 4 to 5)
    • Private Kindergarten (ages 5 to 6)
    • School-Age Program (ages 5 to 12)
    • Summer Camp Program (ages 5 to 12)

    Educational Philosophy

    We want your child’s first educational experiences to be fun, engaging, and challenging so they develop a love of learning! Flexibility and individualization are both built into our Ascend Curriculum so we can fully support the learning needs of every child in our care.  Our teachers progressively introduce sets of skills across nine subject areas such as Literacy, Mathematics, Cultural Understanding, and Technology each month, but the activities themselves can be customized to fit the interests and current skill level of each child.

    Kind Child

    Kind Child is one of the nine learning domains we emphasize in our Ascend Curriculum. We focus on developing social-emotional skills in our classrooms every month and a new character trait like a Positive Self-Image, Empathy, and Friendship every two months. The goal of our Kind Child program is to enrich friendships and to continually elevate every child’s emotional well-being, which creates a Kind School we all enjoy!

    Safety & Security

    Keeping children safe and security is the top responsibility of any preschool or daycare facility. Winwood South Riding maintains child-teacher ratios that are lower than state standards so our teachers are better able to respond to the needs of their students. We have a secure entry system throughout our center so we can effectively screen families and visitors.

    Our school has MyToddlerLink, which is a web camera system that allows parents to check on their child throughout the day from the convenience of their home or office. We also provide our parents an app called KidReports, which keeps them updated on their child’s progress throughout the day and includes photos.

    Our Preschool’s Location

    Winwood Children’s Center, South Riding is located at 42851 Smallwood Terrace in South Riding, Virginia, 20152. You’ll find us on the northwest corner of Crossfield Drive and Center Street, across the street from Hutchinson Farm Elementary School and South Riding Meadows Pool.

    Nancy Pruckowski

    Assistant Director

    Hello! My name is Nancy Pruckowski. I am so excited to become a part of the South Riding team! I joined the Winwood family in 2013 in Leesburg as an After-Kindergarten teacher and worked closely with management after completing their pre-management program in 2015.

    I moved to Lovettsville, VA when I was three and spent all of my childhood on a quiet sheep farm in the country. After graduating from Virginia Tech, I knew I wanted to work with children which brought me to Winwood! I love to spend my free time with my boyfriend, Josh, and our chocolate lab, Morty. We live in a tiny house in Sterling where you can usually find me doing crafts or sitting on the back deck with a good book.

      Ride the wave

      Tourists often consider Africa too distant, dangerous and unpredictable, usually limiting themselves to hotels in Egypt. At the same time, South Africa is considered the pearl of the continent. Mountains, national parks, deserts, waterfalls, oceans (of which there are two) attract thousands of tourists every year. What’s more, in November this year, South Africa won the Travel Agents Choice Awards as the best wildlife spotting destination for the second time. It is worth going there because the beauty of South Africa is a combination of pristine nature, cultural heritage, incredible adventures and at the same time a comfortable stay. Only a ticket will be expensive for our compatriots, and accommodation and meals will cost quite reasonable money, while you can afford to stay with real chic. In South Africa, the weather is always good for outdoor activities – safaris, horseback riding, golf or ocean swimming. By the way, South Africa is also considered the “adrenaline” capital of the world: here you will be offered more than 130 adventures: from mountain walks to diving under water in a cage around which great white sharks swim!

      Call of the Jungle

      What exactly is there to do in South Africa? Yes, anything! The first place in the list of popularity is, of course, a safari, which can be taken on foot, by jeep or on horseback. By the way, here you can ride not only on a horse, but on an elephant and even an ostrich! Ostrich farms in South Africa are very popular. Of course, you are unlikely to take a whole ostrich through customs, but you can buy eggshell crafts, leather goods or bright feathers for friends, and if you weigh less than 50 kg, you can ride this bird with a breeze! In general, a horseback safari in Africa is much better than similar walks in other exotic parts of the world, such as Mexico or the Dominican Republic. Firstly, the routes here are laid through national parks, where you can gallop with giraffes, watch families of rhinos from the saddle, swim with horses or just watch the sun hiding in the savannah. Secondly, the horses in South Africa will be strong, well-fed, calm and reliable, with good and properly fitted ammunition. They traditionally spend a lot of time grazing among wild animals that are not afraid of them and let them close, which gives riders the opportunity to see antelopes, buffaloes, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, baboons, wild boars and even leopards, jackals, hyenas, martens in the distance. just a few meters! The group, as a rule, includes no more than six people and 2 guides. A day trip on safari will cost $300 per person and includes accommodation, meals with drinks (including alcohol), horseback riding, horseback riding, cycling, fishing, snake shows. For a fee, you can order a helicopter flight. The tour can be chosen as one-day or longer. For example, a ten-day route through the Kruger National Park will already cost 5 thousand dollars (a group of 5-7 people, 6 hours of riding daily). At the end of each day, tourists are waiting for an all-inclusive vacation with swimming in the pool, massage, gourmet dishes and wines from the chef. Here you can fly in a hot air balloon – it will cost about another $ 400 per person.

      Golden Mile

      South Africa is also famous for its diverse beaches. So, Maisenberg beach is good for relaxing with the family, without fear that the kids will be carried away by the wave. Durban’s Golden Mile Beach is a six-kilometer-long sandy strip of fun for boarding enthusiasts, Boulders Beach is home to penguins who bathe with tourists, and Grotto Beach is the best place for whale watching. When swimming, always pay attention to the flags. Green means that there are no sharks, black means that you can also swim, but with caution, red means it is dangerous, but there are no sharks in the immediate vicinity, and white means a shark is nearby, and it is better to get out of the water as soon as possible! In Durban, by the way, you can see a monument to Dick King, an English merchant and colonist, who became famous for riding 960 km in 10 days to ask for help for the beleaguered British garrison in Port Natal. Of course, you can also ride along the coast, and if you don’t repeat the feat of Dick King, then just gallop along the Pacific Ocean to your heart’s content. A three-day tour to Durban, with accommodation, galloping along the beach and swimming, will cost about $150.

      In a volcano

      South Africa is famous for its shops – both huge shopping centers and numerous souvenir markets with a unique flavor of the black culture of the country’s indigenous population. Nightclubs and bars, theme parks and casinos, the most famous of which, Sun City, is located in the crater of an ancient volcano – a great way to escape from the scorching heat and have a good time. And horse lovers will find a lot of interesting things within the walls of the Richmond Equestrian Museum in the Eastern Cape. This is one of the few museums in the world dedicated to riding horses. The region has long been engaged in breeding horses for work under saddle and transportation of goods, so the museum has collected a lot of interesting information, rare photographs and publications that tell about the life of local residents and their four-legged companions since the 1850s. One of the most valuable exhibits is a van used by the local farmers to travel to the city on holidays.

      At home vuvuzela

      Finally, there are a lot of sporting events in the country. Centuries-old playgrounds and modern stadiums, which host football, cricket, rugby matches, gather millions of fans all year round. Equestrian sport in South Africa is well developed, but lags behind compared to European countries. Athletes from this country have never won Olympic medals in equestrian competitions. At the last games in Rio, local rider Tanya Seymour took only 56th place in the individual dressage standings with a score of 63.9%. But race trials are extremely popular among all segments of the population. There are three major races worth visiting in South Africa: the Summer Cup at the Turffontein Racecourse in Johannesburg, The J&B Met’s annual race in Cape Town and South Africa’s biggest race, The Vodacom July in Durban. Horse racing in South Africa is the same ladies and gentlemen in the most incredible designer suits and hats, numerous after-parties and, of course, sweepstakes. The Eastern Cape region is home to the Arlington and Fairview racecourses, the Free State boasts the Bloemfontein and Waal racecourses, and Gauteng is known for the Newmarket track of the same name. In KwaZulu-Natal you will find Turf Club Carwood, Greyville and Scottsville, and in the Western Cape Milnerton and Kenilworth. It is interesting that historically the profession of a jockey in South Africa was little respected: for a very long time, jockeys lived in stables and even slept with horses! Today the situation has changed, and successful riders, earning good money, can afford to live in a big way.

      from a ship to the ball

      in South Africa are engaged in the breeding of many horse breeds, including purebred tops for surges. At the same time, local breeds remain very popular and convenient to work with. By the way, in Africa each state can boast of its own, in South Africa it is a Boer horse, short, but powerful and unpretentious. Boer ponies are descended from Basotho ponies and Cape horses. It was on them that they fought during the famous Anglo-Boer conflict 1899-1902. Interestingly, the Georgian prince Nikoloz Bagrationi-Mukhransky, who went to Africa to participate in a horse safari, fought on the side of the Boers. The war found him there, and the prince, who had not heard anything about the Boers before, decided to fight for this people. The events were reflected in his book “At the Boers”, which Bagrationi-Mukhransky wrote when he returned to his homeland in Georgia. In 1970, the number of Boer horses was greatly reduced, but a special program for the protection and preservation of the country’s heritage was able to help restore the number of ponies.

      Gray’s Scouts

      In general, horses have always played a significant role in the lives of South Africans. For example, during the South African Border War or the 1966-1989 Namibian War of Independence, the military often preferred horses to motorcycles and cars. According to them, the animals did not step on the mines, they moved absolutely silently and sensed the danger in advance. Interestingly, they were transported not on horse carriers, but in Kwêvoël armored trucks, which could withstand the simultaneous detonation of three TM-57 mines (about 20 kg of TNT) and take on board more than 13 tons of cargo. South Africa also provided horses to the Rhodesians, who formed the famous Grey’s Scouts, a mobile infantry unit named after the national hero of Rhodesia, John Gray. The main tasks of the unit were patrolling, reconnaissance and pursuit of the enemy. The Gray Scouts traveled over 40 km a day, moving at a walk, trot and canter. The horses were small but hardy, and could be grazing (without forage) for at least 10 days. They could go where the transport simply had no chance. Interestingly, riding skills were not required to enroll in the service. Riders were taught from scratch, and the only restriction was the weight of a person – no more than 80 kg. The unit had its own forge, a veterinarian, and before releasing horses on combat patrols, they carried out serious training. Only after a five-month study, the horse and rider were allowed to work on the ground. Camouflage was also used for animals, so very few of them were killed during the fighting. Yet surprisingly, during the technocratic 20th century in South Africa, animals were often valued more than machines.

      Fried wok-toks

      Traveling around Africa, don’t forget about the national cuisine. Of course, South Africa has its own culinary traditions, which are a bizarre mix of gastronomic preferences of the black and white population of the country. Perhaps the cuisine here is not as refined as European, but it certainly has a unique flavor. In local cafes you can try biltong – beef jerky, boboti – meat with rice, egg and spices, curry bunny chow, biryani – meat in pots with vegetables and rice, chakalaka – a dish of onions, tomatoes, beans and chili, karu lamb – meat assorted, samusas – biscuits with meat and for a snack chicken legs, which are called “woki-toki” here. Local wines are in no way inferior to French ones in quality and are exported all over the world. Another popular and healthy drink is ginger beer, which is brewed in all provinces.

      A holiday in South Africa is an adventure in itself. Wild animals in all their glory, two oceans, a whirlpool of excitement and peace alone with nature. South Africa is rich and poor at the same time, frightening and amazing, beautiful and majestic … And, perhaps, it is worth spending your vacation here one day, to perhaps look at the world with different eyes.

      Riding and riding a horse in the everyday and spiritual life of the late medieval population of the Middle Yenisei0001

      HORSE RIDING AND A RIDING HORSE IN THE DAILY AND SPIRITUAL LIFE OF THE LATE MEDIEVAL POPULATION OF THE MIDDLE YENISEI *

      Based on written and ethnographic sources, a review of the meaning and functions horse in the culture of the late medieval population of the Middle Yenisei – the Yenisei Kyrgyz and their Kyshtyms. The presented information is the result of complex archaeological, ethnographic and archival research in the field of the history of the Yenisei Kyrgyz at the final stage of the existence of their state.

      Keywords: Southern Siberia, Middle Yenisei, late Middle Ages, ethnographic modernity, riding horse, horse equipment.

      In the late Middle Ages and the beginning of the New Age (XIII – early XVIII centuries), the cultural and economic type of the population of the Middle Yenisei meant the dominance of transhumance. Information from written sources, supported by ethnographic materials and data from archaeological sites, confirms that the basis of the life of local peoples, regardless of ethnic differences, is cattle breeding products [Butanaev, 2002. p. 11]. Under these conditions, the decisive role of riding is assumed, which was provided by the necessary material complex – horse equipment. Considering the riding horse as the most important element of the economy and worldview, an integral part of the culture of the late medieval population, we offer a brief overview of information from written and ethnographic sources on the perception and practical role of the horse in the life of the semi-nomadic and nomadic population of the region. These data are extrapolated to the late medieval era, suggesting that in this way it is possible to fill the archaeological unwritten culture of the Middle Yenisei with the second0005

      half of the XIV – first half of the XVII century. “live” material and understanding of some boundaries of the ordinary and sacred creators of the corresponding monuments.

      According to one version, a man began to ride a horse for 6 thousand liters. n. [Anthony et al., 1992]. Domestication is a long process that could not quickly lead to large-scale shifts in human history. Interestingly, even in the Sayan myths, the long and very difficult path of accustoming a horse to riding is emphasized. So, “in ancient times, one of the first riders who taught horses to walk under saddle, driving around a wild horse, ran into a larch and died” [Butanaev, Mongush, 2005. p. 166]. In any case, the riding horse became, perhaps, the main condition for the emergence and spread of nomadic civilizations. Many works emphasize that “the horse played a revolutionary role in movement, in trade and military affairs” [Bököni, 1984. S. 12]. The horse was the main object of management of a number of empires of Eurasia, bursts of influence of which occurred in certain periods of the end of the 1st millennium BC. e. – II millennium AD e.

      If we take into account that for most of the written history, the horse and the rider were the main protagonists of the armed clashes that this time is so full of, then it becomes obvious that this statement is applicable not only to the cultures of nomads [Kirpichnikov, 1973. p. 5; Kovalevskaya, 1977, p. 3].

      Attention to horses and their equipment was traced among the majority of the peoples of Eurasia. We note its particular importance among the immediate neighbors of the population of the Middle Yenisei: Tuvans [Darzha, 2003], Yakuts [Maak, 1994], and Buryats [Buryaty, 2004. p. 98]. In the Turkic-Mongolian epic, the horse occupies a special position. Here, attention is paid to the maintenance of the horse, and its dressage, horse races, and the praise of the horse is constantly held [Lipets, 1984].

      Horseback riding appeared in Sayano-Altai around 1500 BC. e. [Byoköni, 1984. S. 13]. This is confirmed by the finds of bone cheek-pieces in the archaeological sites of the Minusinsk Basin of the Late Bronze Age: Torgazhak, Kamenny Log I, and the pits of the Ustinka burial ground (Savinov 1996, p. 26). The art of riding changed, horse equipment also developed, the type of management varied, the composition of the herds among the population of the Middle Yenisei also changed, but the role of the horse always remained extremely important.

      By the late Middle Ages, the peoples of the south of Central Siberia led a diverse economy. Before the beginning of the Mongol expansion, agriculture had a certain development, mainly among the ethnic groups, which should be considered the Kyshtyms of the Yenisei Kyr-gyz. The latter, apparently, continued to maintain nomadic pastoralism [Khudyakov, 1984. S. 23]. Nevertheless, any ethnic group living in the forest-steppe and steppe zone of Central Asia should have a horse as an important element of its economy. Firstly, the horse is actually the only way to travel in peaceful economic life and during periods of war. Apparently, among ordinary nomads, the equipment of hunting and peaceful (economic) horses did not differ from riding military ones – all ammunition was characteristic of “nomadic cattle breeders of the dry steppes” (Zhambalova, 1991. p. 71). One of the indirect confirmations of the exceptional role of

      The skis of the indigenous population of the Middle Yenisei, which they actively used, can also be considered as a means of transport. According to Chinese chronicles, skis were called “wooden horses” [History of Khakassia…, 1993. p. 132]. Secondly, the horse is a source of certain foodstuffs. Vodka was made from horse milk. Ropes and lassoes were made from horse hair [Patachakov 1958. p. 18], strings of musical instruments, sultans, etc. Horse skin was widely used [Ibid.].

      The widespread distribution of riding horses on the territory of the Middle Yenisei in the developed Middle Ages is evidenced by the data of written sources and archeology. There are reports of horses that were used before the Mongol expansion in the Tang chronicles. The horses are “dense and tall. Those who fight hard are considered the best” [Bichurin, 1998, p. 359]. “Their horses are extremely strong and large; those who can fight are called head horses” [Küner, 1961, p. 5657]. It is noted in the literature that, perhaps, “the Kyrgyz bred various breeds of horses” [Khudyakov, 1984. S. 21]. There is an entry about the time of the late Middle Ages in the “Yuan shi”: “there are thoroughbred horses in their lands” [History of Khakassia., 1993. P. 132]. In other sources: “the country breeds famous horses: white, black, green like the sea” [Ibid.]. The last suit, in the absence of other data, should be considered, most likely, an invention of the chronicler.

      Appearance of a horse, common at the turn of 1-11 thousand AD. e. in the steppes of Central Asia and which has come down to us, it seems to have changed slightly, corresponds to an exterior complex close to the Mongolian type, which is opposed to other local groups [Alekseev, 1990. S. 158]. “These are animals fitting into a square with a steep occiput, a powerful, steep-ribbed body on low, bony and dry legs. with straight pasterns and high large glass-shaped hooves, short and often high withers, short and sometimes soft back and loin, rounded and sometimes drooping croup. In general, this horse gives the impression of a representative of a cultivated breed and the fruit of long-term special selection work, under a heavily armed rider it … was ideal … It can be assumed that such horses were nimble, turning, powerful enough for shock actions formation and dexterity in individual combat” [Alekseev, 1990. S. 158].

      Evidence of the long history of horse breeding among the population of the south of the Yenisei Territory is “the richness and variety of names according to the age characteristics of horses and their color in the modern Khakass language” [Patachakov, 1958. p. 18]. It contains about 90 names of various shades of horse colors [Butanaev, 2002. p. 12]. A horse in Khakass is at, a stallion is ashyr, a mare is pii, a foal up to three years old is tai, another name for a foal is khulun. According to the suits, the horses were divided as follows: bay -torat, nightingale – saraat, black – hara-at, piebald – khoor at, white – khulat, etc. The names of the gait method are varied: step – pazyt, cowardly – devil, amble -chorgala , jumping amble – seggrtgs, etc.

      According to Kyrgyz written sources, one can judge the size of the herds. The upper strata of society possessed herds, the number of which is expressed by such epithets as “my six thousand horses”, “the cattle marked with a brand were without number”, etc. [Khudyakov, 1984. p. 21]. E. Pesterov wrote about the Kachintsy of ethnographic time: “. horse herds have from thirty to fifty. [Patachakov, 1958, p. 18]. There are also archival documents that talk about herds of several thousand heads with noble bais [Ibid. pp. 43-46]. Nevertheless, most of the ordinary population of the Middle Yenisei throughout the studied time period had a much smaller number of horses.

      Unfortunately, at the present time, we do not know of late medieval images of a rider and riding horse among the population of the Middle Yenisei, except for relatively inexpressive images of horses, among which there are equipped ones, attributed to the Khakass of the New Age [Kyzla-sov, Leontiev, 1980. p. 37-38]. The dominant role of the horse in the economy of the nomadic peoples of the Mongolian period is emphasized by pictorial sources from other territories, such as the Polovtsian steppes [Bulatov, 2002. p. 42].

      An important role in the horse breeding of the population of the Middle Yenisei is “the ability of a stallion to guard and drive a herd independently” [Patachakov, 1958. p. 19]. Thus, it was possible to divide the horses into practically independent ghouls and workers who were at the court [Ibid.]. Accordingly, based on this, the life year of the nomads of the south of Central Siberia was built, divided into seasons, depending on the time of grazing and the availability of fodder.

      All this information about the history of the economy of the population of the Middle Yenisei at the end of the 1st – beginning of the 2nd millennium AD. e. confirmed by the results of archaeological excavations. The vast majority of finds from burial complexes relate to horse equipment. Obviously, a large array of artifacts of horse ammunition is the result of special attention to riding, and their finds in burials are a reflection of the cult significance of a riding horse.

      The Mongol invasion could not diminish the role of horse riding among the local population. The conquerors themselves were nomads, whose way of life was most closely connected with the horse. On the territory of the Middle Yenisei, the conquest manifests itself in the return of the population to a typically nomadic way of life, the degradation of agriculture. This process was accompanied by a cultural decline in general, which is archaeologically expressed in the simplification of the appearance of objects, its standardization within the tradition of the surrounding forest-steppe nomadic peoples. From now on, nomadic cattle breeding is the only way to survive in the deserted expanses of the Middle Yenisei. The role of riding as a result of a long struggle against the invaders has increased significantly. The great importance of the riding horse was preserved until the Russian influence spread to this territory. It remained after the entry of the peoples of the south of Central Siberia into the Russian Empire. By the beginning of the twentieth century. the role of horse breeding was leading [Butanaev, 2002. p. 80]. New ways of managing some ethnic and social groups of the population only pushed him out.

      It is not common for nomadic peoples to deify the horse. The sacralization of a horse implies its isolation, which is unthinkable for nomads. A horse is an obligatory and faithful companion of a person. Therefore, he is an obligatory participant in numerous

      myths, legends, tales, as well as rituals and cults. The “multilayered image of a horse” in the Turkic-Mongolian epic does not contradict the absence of its sacralization in the worldview of nomads. On the contrary, the representation of the horse as an ancestor, patron, prophetic companion of the hero-rider [Lipets, 1984. S. 124139] confirms its necessity for a person. All this is clearly manifested when comparing the role of the horse among nomads and sedentary peoples, who also have developed traditions of horse breeding. For example, among the Koreans and Vietnamese, horse sacrifices were made exclusively as a correlation of the horse with water and the mountain [Knorozova, 2003. p. 247].

      Almost all the heroes of oral stories of the Sayan Turks have a horse. As noted by V. Ya. Butanaev and C. V. Mongush, the reason for this is that “the horse was a true friend of man, faithfully serving him during his lifetime, and after death accompanied him to the afterlife. The name of a person and a horse in the Turkic languages ​​have the identical sound “at”, because in the epic life not only the hero is inextricably linked with his horse” [2005. S. 90] but the vast majority of other heroes of legends have horses. Mountain masters, for example, “ride black-brown horses” (p. 10). It is noteworthy that mountain owners are also the source of horse attire. The Almighty God rides on a green horse (p. 33), on nightingal horses – “yellow maidens” (p. 34), on a gray-sky-heavenly horse – the enriched orphan Koketey (p. 47), on a chubar – the supreme creator Ulgennig Khan (p. 44), on white – the patron of horse breeding Payta Khan (p. 45). In the sky, revered by all the nomads of Central Asia, in the constellation Ursa Major, there was an abode of a chubar horse (p. 44). The constellation Ursa Minor, according to the Sayan Turks, “consists of two horses – a white and a gray suit, tied to an iron stake or a golden hitching post in the center of the sky, i.e. the North Star” (p. 45). These sacred horses are considered the protectors of the herds. According to the opinion of the indigenous population of the south of the Yenisei region, on Earth, the patron spirits of horses lived in the south (p. 49). No top

      According to the nomads of Sayano-Altai, representatives of the dark forces could not get along. In the worldview of the Khakas, a person who, under the influence of evil spirits, committed “poonchakh” (suicide), became in the next world the riding horse of this demon (p. 30). The seven deities of the lower world (“Erli-ki”) have a pastoral economy of horses, cows and sheep, which are grazing by tau-buns, cattlemen and shepherds, respectively, on nine-headed snakes, six-yard motley frogs and six-legged lizards (p. 33). The name of horse thieves is also associated with demonic creatures. “Chulgu-sy” are horse thieves who trade at night. The same name is given to demons that appear after sunset and steal people’s souls (S. 33).

      Horses are obligatory participants in systematic sacrifices to ancestral mountains (“tag tayyg”). An important episode of this holiday was the binding of a brown horse to a tree, which was dedicated to mountain spirits. Among the Khakasses, it was called “yzykh”, but, given that “it served as a mount of mountain spirits, it was called “tag yzygy” – mountain “yzykh” (p. 13).

      During the rites of mountain sacrifice and burial, an interesting feature of the views of the Sayan population associated with the horse is manifested. A number of ritual procedures make it possible to compare a horse and a wife. In the first case, the hair of the mane and tail of the “yzykhs” was “braided like a braid of a married woman, counterclockwise” (p. 14). During the burial ceremony, “the riding horse of the deceased, like the widow, had to endure the mourning standing of the “tullangana”” (p. 167). The mane and tail were braided by an elderly man “clockwise, i.e., just like a widow’s braid” (p. 167). In the course of both rites, but especially in the case of sacrifice, the mane and tail were decorated with colored ribbons. In the first case, “paired ritual ribbons “yzykh chalamazy” were woven into the hair of the tail and nape of the consecrated animal – sacred flags, the color scheme of which corresponded to the color of the cattle” (p. 14). In the second, red or black ribbons were woven into the hair (p. 167).

      To increase the livestock offspring, the image of a horse in the form of wooden figurines

      was placed inside the sacred stone altars “Obaa”. In addition to horses, such attention was paid only to bulls and sheep (p. 15). The riding horse also participates in the custom of “ucha” – the prestigious distribution of booty and property (p. 56). The patrons of horses of various colors were represented by individual tyos – tribal fetishes (S. 66-69, 71).

      The population of the Middle Yenisei singled out the riding horse from the environment of other animals, emphasizing its proximity to man in myths. “Poonchakh”, for example, “is afraid of a horse’s hoof” (p. 30). Comparing the images of a horse and a cow in the legends of the indigenous population, one should mention the myth of the creation of the Pleiades. In the course of this story, the horse, called by the supreme creator, was supposed to destroy the evil creation of Erlik Khan. But the proud cow with a pair of hooves decided to get ahead of the horse. The result of the repulsion of the horse was the spread of cold throughout the land (p. 44).

      According to the customs of the Khakasses and Tuvans, one can trace a respectful, but far from reverent attitude towards horses. Indeed, for a nomad, a horse is not a toy or a funny pet, and therefore it is impossible to show excessive affection towards cattle (p. 92). At the same time, it should be remembered that horses should not be beaten, young animals should not be slaughtered for meat (p. 92). A respectful attitude towards a horse is also manifested in the existence of a beloved horse, which is especially guarded by a nomad [Butanaev, 2002. p. 13].

      In the culture of the nomadic peoples of the forest-steppe belt of Eurasia, the important role of the horse is assumed not only during life. A person must remain with a riding horse even after death [Kazakov, 1984; Nesterov, 1985; 1990]. Apparently, the presence of these animals in the burial meant their use as a victim or a vehicle (Nesterov, 1990. p. 5184). In the late Middle Ages and the beginning of the New Age, the population of the Middle Yenisei does not trace the accompanying burials of a horse, but horse equipment is an obligatory part of the inventory that the deceased “in the next world” needs. According to ethnographic materials, we can see the participation of a horse in the burial rite, which0005

      is also confirmed by archeological sources.

      On the “hoylag” (the name of the horse after the death of the owner), the saddle and saddle were put on backwards. It is also known that in the funeral procession saddle tori were used, to which the fur coat or robe of the deceased (as his deputy) was tied. During the ceremony, the end of the occasion was cut off, which was placed in the coffin. One of the final moments of the burial was that “at the feet of the deceased, usually already in the burial pit, they put a saddle taken from the “hoylag”” [Butanaev, Mongush, 2005. P. 167]. In the Iyus Valley, there was a practice of slaughtering a “hoylag” and placing its skin and head in the same pit with the deceased. Usually, “hoyla-ga” was slaughtered and eaten on the grave on the fortieth day. And his skin was thrown on a special scarecrow “in such a way that the head looked towards the setting sun. An image of a horse running into the sky was created” [Ibid.]. A bridle was also hung on this stuffed animal. The existence of the ancient ritual of burning “hoylag” in all equipment is noted in some regions of Khakassia [Ibid. S. 168]. The above information confirms the opinion of S.P. Nesterov that the items of equipment that were placed in the grave “were intended for the horse that was killed at the grave” [1990. S. 63].

      The all-encompassing significance of riding corresponds to the special attention to the “attributes of cattle breeding”. According to some popular beliefs, a kind of sacralization of the whip, rein and bridle of the horse can be traced. Many prohibitions, signs, and rituals are associated with the use of these items. For example, “neither a rein nor a bridle can beat a horse, otherwise the owner will die. ” You can not enter the yurt, “holding in the hands of the whip and bridle.” “It was forbidden to put a saddle on a horse backwards, otherwise the road would be unsuccessful” [Butanaev, Mongush, 2005. P. 91-92]. Particular attention was paid to a simple whip as a male attribute, a protector from evil forces. Each ordinary nomad has one whip. It is emphasized that its hilt is made of red meadowsweet, which protects from evil spirits [Ibid.]. Other cases of using horse equipment in rituals are also known. For example, when courting a fetish (“ir of carts”), guarding the food supplies of the owners, among other things, the sound of a rattling silver girth was also necessary [Ibid. S. 76].

      Evidence of the high role of the riding horse in the life of the population of the south of Central Siberia is an example from the stories about the training of masters of throat singing – “hi-ji”. After learning a new “haiji”, his teacher said: “Let you have khomys and wearable clothes, and daily food, and a riding horse!” [Butanaev, Mongush, 2005. P. 38]. Here you can see that the horse is on the same level of necessity for a person as clothing and food.

      There is a great importance of such an obligatory attribute of the surrounding world of nomads as hitching posts [Burnakova, 1997; Gavrilova, Roslyakov, 2000. P. 14]. They act as the personification of home and motherland, the connection of individual members of the clan, etc. Traces of the presence of hitching posts are found near the burial complexes.

      All of the above confirms the important role of riding and the horse in the life of the population of the Middle Yenisei in the late Middle Ages. The peoples of the south of Central Siberia perceived the horse as an indispensable component of their everyday life.

      OLYMPIC DISCIPLINES

      DRESSAGE

      Elegant riders in black tailcoats and top hats, prancing on beautiful horses, is dressage. It is called the higher school of riding, also – the “mystery”, “philosophy” and even the “ballet” of equestrian sports. The art of dressage, in international terminology – training, is to make a graceful animal freely and easily obey the will of the rider when performing complex exercises. The painstaking work of the coach and athlete on the development of the natural qualities of the horse leads to the solution of this laborious task. The key to success is the complete mutual understanding of the rider and his four-legged partner, their ability to act harmoniously, in unison.

      As a sport, dressage was founded in the 18th century in Germany. The Germans began to study and teach other military cavalry elements and then compete to see who could do them better. In the future, many other schools and directions appeared, which contributed to the adoption of dressage in the Olympic family. The debut took place at the 1912 Games in Stockholm, but even then only mounted officers could participate in the competition. Only 40 years later, the Helsinki Olympics opened this discipline to civilians, including women.

      The dressage arena is an open fighting field or a rectangular area under the roof of the arena. Each element of the ride has its own name. Let’s say a gallop in place is a pirouette. High and rhythmic trot with slow progress – passage. Jump on hind legs up and forward – kurbet. The horse moves in place, raising its legs to the same height – piaffe. And so on. The final result of the performance is derived from the sum of the judges’ marks for the performance of each figure.

      Modern dressage according to the rules of the International Equestrian Federation includes schemes of varying degrees of complexity. In ascending order, these are the Small Prize, the Medium Prize (No. 1 and No. 2) and the Grand Prize, which provides for the Relocation and Cure – a free program to music, where the arbitrators pay attention to both the couple’s technique and their artistry. At such major tournaments as the Olympics, the World Championships and the World Cup, riders perform great rides, captivating large audiences with graceful aerobatics.

      Domestic dressage knows many famous names. Sergey Filatov on black Absinthe, Ivan Kizimov on bay Ichor, Elena Petushkova on wayward Ash, Ivan Kalita on thoroughbred riding Tarifa became winners and prize-winners of the most prestigious international competitions, including the Olympic Games.

      Nizhny Novgorod also contributed to the overall success. In 1979, acting as part of the USSR national team, Olga Sokolova won the silver medal of the European Championship, and in 2009, Alexandra Korelova, a participant in the Olympic tournaments in Athens and Hong Kong, rose to the third step of the podium of the World Equestrian Games. It is also impossible not to say that since 2006 Nizhny Novgorod has been hosting the stages of the Dressage World Cup: the leading Russian riders and foreign guests are hospitably received by the Passage equestrian center, one of the best in the country.

      Dressage for professionals is a creative and, one might say, jewelry work. And for amateurs – an exciting activity, useful recreation. After all, communication with a horse contributes to both the physical and spiritual development of a person.

      JUMPING

      In this discipline the rider demonstrates speed, courage and prudence. He passes the route, overcoming obstacles of various heights. In the shortest possible time, it is necessary to qualitatively force the barriers installed on the field, that is, not to touch them and stay in the saddle until the very finish line. Depending on the complexity of the route and the size of the obstacles, there are four classes of jumping – easy, medium, difficult and higher.

      The obstacles here are varied. These include a wall, a cross, a gate, a fence, parallel bars, a barrier. All these are wooden structures, which, when touched, are easily destroyed, saving competitors from serious falls and injuries. Depending on the type of route, from 8 to 16 obstacles are placed on it, the height of which is from 100 to 180 cm. If two or more participants perform a race without blots or with the same number of penalties, then a jump-off is assigned. There are competitions whose names speak for themselves – “By increasing difficulty”, “On the power of the jump”, “Up to the first mistake”. In addition, there are “Hunting parkour” and such varieties as “Choice”, “Speed”, “Mirror “.

      France is considered the birthplace of show jumping. In the middle of the 19th century, it was there, at the Paris Horse Show, that competitions in jumping over obstacles took place. Soon they gained such wide popularity that they were awarded Olympic status. “Barrier racing”, as show jumping is called, was registered in the program of the Games in 1900, before dressage and equestrian triathlon. At that time, Russian cavalry guards also entered the international arena, winning many prestigious awards. And Olympic recognition came to our country in Soviet times, when the show jumping team consisting of Vyacheslav Chukanov, Viktor Poganovsky, Viktor Asmaev and Nikolai Korolkov became “gold” at the Games-1980 in Moscow.

      Today, overcoming obstacles remains one of the most spectacular equestrian sports. The audience is attracted by the festive atmosphere of the competition, when riders start in bright riding suits – redingotes, and greenery and flowers border the field with decorated barriers. But the most exciting thing is the fight on the route, in which the one who succeeds is the one who has the patience and diligence to thoroughly study his four-legged friend, and then, together with him, master the science of show jumping. The moment when a strong horse flawlessly soars over the barrier evokes a sea of ​​emotions in the audience and becomes a well-deserved reward for a brave rider.

      EVENTING

      Three days in a row on the same horse, the rider succeeds in dressage riding, field trials and, finally, in overcoming obstacles. The first is dressage, which demonstrates the obedience of the animal. The second and main thing is cross-country, where the agility, endurance of the horse and its ability to take indestructible obstacles are evaluated. And the third – show jumping, checking the performance of a pair after difficult field tests. The winner is the athlete who scored the least number of penalty points for all starts.

      Eventing tournaments have their own international and national categories. In addition, they differ in the level of preparation of the participants. Depending on this, the competitions are assigned stars – one, two, three, the highest level – four.

      This versatile discipline dates back to the martial art of horsemanship, when cavalrymen required horses to be calm on parade, brave on the battlefield and ready for further trials afterward. In triathlon, the “battlefield” is just that many kilometers of rugged terrain. “Enemy” – ditches, ravines, rivers, hills, steep ascents and descents. As well as specially built fences, log pyramids, stacks of firewood. Cross-country, during which it is necessary to overcome these “deaf” obstacles, in the best way examines the rider and his four-legged partner for strength, courage and agility. The final result of the athlete’s performance depends most of all on success in the field.

      Like dressage, triathlon became an Olympic sport in 1912. The teams of our country, participating in the Games, did not achieve great achievements, but were repeatedly winners and prize-winners of the European Championship. The USSR national teams took the “gold” in England and Germany, and in the 1965 season they distinguished themselves at home: then Moscow took the continental championship.

      In conclusion, what does the triathlete look like, what is his equipment. It consists of a tailcoat, breeches and boots, a show jumping coat and a helmet. The rider must wear a protective vest during the cross country. This is mandatory as field trials carry a certain amount of risk of serious injury. The International Equestrian Federation constantly pays attention to safety issues in triathlon.

      OTHER FEI DISCIPLINES

      VAULTING

      This is a colorful and dynamic spectacle, during which the horse moves in a circle, and riders demonstrate solo, parachubatics or a group of neucrobatics . Vaulting owes its origin to circus art. Developing the athlete’s creative abilities and combining his diverse training, she develops the rider’s coordination, strength, flexibility, agility, artistry and, of course, an impeccable fit on a horse.

      Competitions are held in the arena, in the center of which is a lunger – the same member of the team as the vaulter himself. He controls the horse with a long cord – a cord, forcing it to move in a circle in a uniform gait. Riders perform compulsory and free programs to music, each element of which is enthusiastically received by the public. The judging panel evaluates “swallows”, “racks”, “scissors”, “turntables” and other exercises on a ten-point scale. In addition, the arbitrators take into account the harmony and brightness of the number, as well as the submission of the horse, its ability to correctly respond to the “orders” of the longer.

      Vaulting is the only equestrian sport in which men and women compete separately in an individual event and together in a team event. Once, in 1920, the rivalry of “flying horsemen” was included in the program of the Olympics, and later became the decoration of the World Equestrian Games, World and European Championships. “Artistic riding”, as vaulting is called, is very popular in Europe, the USA, South America, Australia and is becoming more widespread in our country.

      DRIVING

      In 1970, the International Equestrian Federation recognized the competition of carriages drawn by one, two or four horses. This is the youngest discipline of the FEI, the main thing in it is the versatile ability of the team to work to win accurately and harmoniously, as a single mechanism.

      Like triathlon, driving competitions include three types – dressage (dressing), marathon (cross-country) and parkour (obstacle avoidance). Athletes pass all these tests without changing horses for three days. The crews are managed by several people – a driver and grooms who help to keep the balance of the team and perform navigational duties. The goal is to finish first. Also a classic exam is the speed test as an integral part of the marathon. Major tournaments, for example, the annual world championships, gather thousands of people who enjoy the virtuoso skills of the performance participants. Especially in parkour, when special different-sized obstacles become a stumbling block.

      Driving is one of the most expensive equestrian sports. The minimum cost for a one-horse carriage is 20,000 euros. Plus, the costs associated with the transportation of horses and teams to the places of competition, the equipment of large training areas. Despite this, the number of fans of the elegant and at the same time extreme discipline is constantly growing. It is experiencing rapid development on all continents.

      ENDURANCE

      Competitions for time, for endurance, for the correct choice of race tactics. But it’s not long distance racing. One of the main criteria for choosing a winner here is the health of the horse, its good physical condition, which must be checked during and after the passage of the track.

      The horse race is held on rough terrain. Its participant has at his disposal a map of the route, on which all natural obstacles and mandatory stops for rest and veterinary control are marked. In this case, the marking of certain sections is carried out in such a way that the rider does not have any doubts regarding the correctness of the movement. Depending on the level of the run, its length is from 30 to 160 km, the competition can last more than one day.

      Sometimes these races are half-jokingly-seriously called horse “Formula 1”. And in fact, there is a certain similarity here: the distance is divided into stages, after each intermediate finish, a numerous support team comes into play: one removes the saddle on the go, the second begins to pour water on the horse to bring down its pulse, calm it down. All these procedures for extra-class runners are performed in a matter of fractions of a minute, which is so similar to a pit stop in Formula 1 racing.

      Now all over the world the development of this discipline is gaining momentum, it is gaining more and more popularity. Horse racing is a sport without limits, in theory, it is available to riders of all ages and horses of different breeds. Although in practice there are, of course, limitations, for horses they are related to the length of the distance, and for riders they are related to age. So, teenagers can participate in competitions only from the age of 12 and then with the written permission of their parents.

      REINING

      Cowboy dressage, which is very popular in the USA. The skill of the rider and the horse is tested here in the performance of complex riding patterns in the arena. These schemes include a set of standard exercises that must be performed at high speed without the slightest resistance from the four-legged partner.

      The rules of Western riding differ significantly from those of classical dressage. So, even before the start of the competition, each participant is given 70 points, and the elements performed by him can be evaluated both positively and negatively. That is, points can be subtracted and added. The whole performance is at a gallop. If the horse switches to a trot, then for three of its steps the rider receives a fine, and for five he will be removed from the arena. However, passing the track at a fast pace is not the main thing. It is more important to show the judges that you can cope with the speed that the animal develops. Here the rider helps his own weight. By moving the weight of the body forward or backward, he lets the horse know what to do and where to go. Therefore, in a couple there should be complete mutual understanding.

      Due to the traumatic nature of reining, the horse may be in bandages or shoes – for example, boots. Special horseshoes are provided for the hind legs. The spectacle is also impressive because the rider is dressed in a traditional cowboy outfit. These are jeans, fancy fringed pants, a plaid shirt, boots, a wide-brimmed hat… Women perform in the same dress code.

      HORSE GAMES

      JIGITING

      A cascade of acrobatic tricks performed by a rider on a fast galloping horse. The arena is a 360-meter straight section or a circus arena. The rider must show as many different exercises as possible or repeatedly – one element. Dzhigitovka includes jumps on a horse, turntables on it, jumps, dismounts, riding while standing, crawling under the neck or belly of a galloping horse, lifting objects from the ground, up to coins, jumping over barriers, group pyramids. Trotting or falling of the rider is considered a defeat. Previously, elements of dzhigitovka were used for military applied purposes – where great skill was required. Gradually it turned into a spectator sport. Today, dzhigitovka is divided into circus, Cossack and freestyle. All these “nominations” are similar to each other, only some nuances of performance differ.

      POLO

      In the second half of the 19th century, having adopted the game widespread in India, the British spread it all over the world, calling it “polo”. This is a team sport in which riders use special sticks to try to drive a plastic ball into the opponent’s goal. Participants (four riders on each side), saddling special horses, the so-called polo-ponies, have to change direction sharply, stop often, and instantly pick up speed. This requires not only good contact with the animal and a strong seat in the saddle, but also courage, agility, and accuracy. The size of the site where the match takes place is comparable to five football fields. A bout is usually divided into six periods of seven minutes each. The one who scores more goals wins. The game traditionally ends with the spectators going out onto the lawn, who trample down the turf torn out by the hooves of the horses.

      RODEO

      This is a colorful celebration of riding shepherds – cowboys or gauchos, as they are called in South America. They compete in the ability to do the very tricks that are associated with their daily work. The highlight of the program is riding wild or unbroken horses. Although, in reality, rodeo horses are not wild, but, on the contrary, very experienced, well-versed in their business, and it is really very difficult to sit on them. The ability to accurately throw a lasso at a gallop is highly valued, as well as to hobble a running bull, for which the rider needs to catch up with him, jump off the horse and tie him up in a matter of seconds. Rodeo is very popular in the USA. So, in New York, competitions are held annually, in which 120 of the best cowboys from around the world participate, and the prize fund of the spectacle is five million dollars.

      * * *

      We have presented only the most popular types, those that have received wide worldwide recognition. In general, horse riding includes many different competitions and equestrian games. Some of them have only local, national significance, others are cultivated in many countries. Equestrian disciplines are considered to be one of the most exciting and colorful in modern sports in terms of their spectacular appeal and variety of forms. They develop in a person not only the speed and accuracy of reaction, endurance and coordination of movements, determination and courage, but also a feeling of kindness towards animals, which unites him with all living nature.

      Preschool for 2 years: Discovery Preschool Programs for 2-3 Year Olds

      Discovery Preschool Programs for 2-3 Year Olds


      (2-3 years old)

      Their world is opening up, so we bring a world of
      learning to them!

      This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton of books and toys and bring their artwork down to kids eye level. Children in discovery preschool also begin to learn the basic building blocks of how we all work together in a classroom. 

      At KinderCare, we put safety first to protect our families and staff. Visit our health and safety page to learn more. 


      Everyone belongs in our circle

      We build warm, welcoming, and supportive classrooms for
      children of all abilities, backgrounds, and experiences.


      Find my nearest center


      Explore the discovery preschool classroom

      Take a look at how we set up our classroom for preschoolers. It’s organized for their age and stage of learning and development.


      Daily classroom schedule

      Kids this age thrive on routine. We use a schedule with
      simple pictures to show them what’s coming up next! This
      keeps them feeling confident about what to expect for the
      day and be part of the plan. We’ll talk about our day in
      morning circle and have lots of visual reminders everywhere.


      Doing things independently

      Discovery preschool is also where your child becomes more
      independent with things like hand-washing and
      potty-training. That’s why sinks, toilets, and furniture in our
      classrooms are all kid-size—so they can build confidence
      knowing they can do it all by themselves.


      Inside a preschooler’s day

      Our caring teachers set a daily rhythm for preschoolers
      that consists of group time, story time, outdoor play,
      meals and snacks, and naps, and most especially, lots of
      unstructured playtime.


      Group time

      Group time happens every day in each
      of our classrooms. In discovery
      preschool, children come together to
      learn about working as a community.
      Teachers will read books, sing songs,
      and more.


      Meals and snacks

      Every day, preschoolers sit down to a meal, where they eat healthy
      fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and
      whole grains—never juice or fried foods.


      Outdoor playtime

      Most of our classes spend 20–30
      minutes outside at least twice a day,
      weather permitting. At this age, kids are
      off running and exploring, using their
      imaginations while they do!

      Preschool curriculum

      Our teachers will help your child build skills that get them
      ready for “big kid school. ” Simple math and science, pretend
      play, and group play help them get used to a more structured
      school setting.

      Building brainpower and strong bodies

      For our littlest preschoolers, we mix early math skills—like
      patterning and counting—into fun daily activities involving
      singing, clapping, and moving around. We also build memory
      and focus skills by learning each other’s names and putting
      toys away.

      Learning to share and make friends

      These are the learning-to-share years! We help them with
      those skills and also show them how to take turns. As they
      learn more about diversity, preschoolers widen their circle of
      friends, interact with new people, and appreciate differences.

      Writing and understanding stories

      At this age, children really begin to understand drawing and
      writing as a form of expression, so we do lots of both every
      day. They can also ask and answer questions about stories
      we read.

      Expressing themselves

      Creatively, preschoolers are able to explore more art
      mediums than before. They can paint and work with clay, play
      dress-up and pretend, and use music to express feelings.


      Preschool classroom activities

      Every day, our creative teachers guide preschoolers through fun activities that are just right for their age. Here are just a few examples!


      What’s This?

      Head, shoulders, knees, and toes! Kids learn to identify,
      name, and count different body parts.


      Clap Your Hands

      Teachers start a simple clapping pattern and ask kids to use
      their ears to listen and then repeat a pattern.


      One Block at a Time

      Kids learn about sequence and doing things one step at a
      time by stacking a few blocks to build a tower.


      How to enroll

      We’ve gathered all the resources you need to help you make a confident decision to join the KinderCare family.

      • Learn about our classrooms, curriculum, and tuition.
      • Find a KinderCare nearby and contact the center director.

      Health Essentials

      Focus: Keeping your 2-year-old healthy and safe.

      Health Essentials is a set of CDC-based standard operating procedures that can help mitigate the spread of potential infection throughout our Academy. Health Essentials is a key part of our overall COVID-19 response, expanding upon existing disinfection and health protocols that offer parents and staff peace of mind and demonstrates our commitment to creating a healthy and safe environment for learning and working.

      Health Essentials guidelines are focused on four principles designed to cover various preventative, protective and corrective measures that address COVID-19:

      1. Wellness Education

      The solution starts with an understanding.

      • Children learn how following proper hygienic practices can keep them healthy
      • Academy staff receives training and must abide by enhanced health and safety practices outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

      2. Enhanced Hygiene

      Soap and water is the best solution.

      • Soap and water offer the simplest solution to combat infection
      • Staff increase handwashing frequency
      • All children must wash their hands upon entering their room at the start of each day and all recommended times thereafter in addition to following standard Academy handwashing procedures

      3. Healthy Environment

      A clean facility keeps families safe.

      Academies adhere to advanced cleaning procedures:

      • Nightly cleaning
      • Daily laundering of soft items and bedding
      • Limiting items brought into the Academy

      4. Symptom Monitoring

      Keeping a watchful eye

      • Temperature monitoring at the Academy entrance.
      • Track symptoms using AcademyLink®
      • Isolate symptomatic children from others immediately upon observation
      • Contact parents for pickup from the Academy
      • Daily health check is completed upon arrival

      Questions? Answers.

      Explore some of the most frequently asked questions from parents of 2-year-olds.



      Q.
      What if my child gets sick?


      A.
      We’ll call you or a designated adult from your Emergency Information Form so that your child can be picked up as soon as possible from the Academy. While waiting to be picked up, your child will rest quietly, away from other children.


      Q.
      What policies are Academies required to have in place to address safety?


      A.
      Our facilities and outdoor play areas are required to have secure entries and exits that are maintained by an electronic entry system. Only individuals authorized by you are allowed to pick up your child from the Academy. All employees are required to have undergone background checks prior to employment.


      Q.
      Do I need to pack a lunch?


      A.
      No. We provide an assortment of healthy, age-appropriate meals and snacks for the children to eat each day.


      Q.
      What if my child has allergies?


      A.
      Due to the high number of children with peanut allergies, we do not serve peanut products. If your child has a specific allergy, please list them on our dietary restriction letter so that we can make appropriate food substitutions.


      Q.
      What are teacher qualifications?


      A.
      All Kiddie Academy teachers must meet or exceed the state requirements for child care providers and are required to receive ongoing professional training annually. We also require background checks through local, county, state and/or federal agencies prior to employment.


      Q.
      What is your discipline policy?


      A.
      We do not use physical or verbal punishment under any circumstances. We use positive guidance and re-direction to acknowledge children’s feelings and emotions and provide them with social scripts, problem-solving techniques, self-calming activities and choices and activities geared toward their interests.


      Q.
      What will my child be doing?


      A.
      At this age, children are naturally inquisitive and take pride in doing things on their own. Our teachers encourage your preschooler to take advantage of our center-based learning environment to explore and progress at their own pace. Your child will work on social/emotional development, motor skills and will be introduced to language arts, mathematics and science.


      Q.
      Can I drop in to observe?


      A.
      Due to the concerns around COVID-19, we are unable to allow drop-in observation by parents or family members. We hope to reverse this rule as soon as it becomes safe.


      Q.
      Do you have parent-teacher conferences?


      A.
      Yes. We schedule family/teacher conferences each year to discuss your child’s progress, but you can request a conference with the Director at any time.


      Q.
      Do you take the children outdoors?


      A.
      Yes, weather permitting, we take children outside daily. Children should be dressed appropriately for playing on our playground or taking group walks.


      Q.
      How do you use technology in learning?


      A.
      Kiddie Academy teachers use technology as learning tools and a means of communication. We feel it’s important to teach children how to use devices they will encounter in school, so they are given opportunities to use them for educational play and research. The use of televisions or computers for passive viewing is not part of Kiddie Academy’s curriculum.


      Q.
      Do you have cameras in the classroom?


      A.
      Many, but not all, Kiddie Academy locations have classroom cameras that parents can access via mobile or desktop apps. For the most accurate information on classroom cameras, contact your Academy directly to learn about camera availability and policies.


      Q.
      What is your health and safety policy?


      A.
      Kiddie Academy® Educational Child Care follows our Health Essentials guidelines, a set of standard operating procedures that can help mitigate the spread of potential infection throughout our Academies. This includes precautions and recommendations for COVID-19 which are specifically focused on social distancing, disinfection, wellness education and symptom monitoring. These protocols may vary based on region and level of outbreak in the area. The goal of Health Essentials is to uphold the highest level of health precautions and cleanliness for proper child care delivery.

      When Do Kids Start Preschool?

      Is your little one physically, emotionally, and socially ready for the classroom? Most preschools start accepting children around two-and-a-half to three years old, but this isn’t a magic number.

      Preschool readiness depends more on developmental factors than chronological age. 

      So before you enroll your two-year-old in preschool, consider these factors:

      • Separation anxiety
      • Social development
      • Potty training
      • Physical development
      • Nap necessity
      • Persistence
      • Curiosity and imagination
      • Communication skills

      Separation anxiety

      Your child may know all their letters, shapes, and colors, but unless they’re emotionally ready for the day-to-day challenges at preschool, it may not be time to enroll them yet.  

      If your little one is still not comfortable being away from you, they’re not ready for preschool at age two or three. Transitioning to preschool will be a stressful event—you don’t want to add extra anxiety to the mix.

      You can help relieve your little one’s stress by slowly introducing them to their new preschool routine. The National Association for the Education of Young Children recommends visiting the preschool with your child before their first day to show them where their cubby is and where they will eat, play, and nap so they learn that the classroom is a safe space.

      Social development

      How much experience have they had playing with other children? Do they like it? Do they do it well? 

      If your three-year-old is still in parallel play, they may not be ready to join a classroom. Typically, three-year-olds start to play with each other and engage in imaginative play at this age—both key components of preschool programs. Your three-year-old needs to be socially aware of how to treat other children.

      Potty training

      Sometimes preschools will help with potty training, but many require that this skill is mastered before enrolling. Nevertheless, potty training is such a developmental milestone that it can strongly indicate preschool readiness.

      Physical development

      Do they have the fine motor skills for handling classroom materials or the motor skills to handle playground equipment? 

      Your child will fine-tune these skills in preschool, but your two or three-year-old should have the motor control to keep up with their classmates to be successful at preschool.

      Nap necessity

      If your two or three-year-old still needs a two-hour nap each afternoon, they may not be developmentally ready for the activity level at preschool. 

      Usually, preschools have naps built into the day, but your toddler may not sleep as well at school as at home, which can lead to crankiness or an adjusted sleeping schedule.

      Persistence

      Does your two or three-year-old get easily frustrated when learning new skills? Do they struggle with motivation? They may not have the persistence necessary to succeed in preschool.  

      Your child needs to be willing to work through their frustration and try challenging tasks to do well academically and socially in preschool. If your child struggles to stay motivated when facing challenges, it may be best to wait to enroll them in preschool.

      Curiosity and imagination

      Are they curious about the world around them? Do they ask open-ended questions and come up with imaginative solutions to problems? Curiosity is a necessary skill that preschoolers need as they learn new skills and learn to interact with other children. 

      However, if your child hasn’t begun to ask open-ended questions about other people or the world around them, they may not be ready for the academic and social environment of preschool.

      Communication skills

      Are they easy to understand? Can they ask for help when they need it? They’ll need to ask for help when they need it and communicate with their classmates. 

      If you can’t understand their speech, they may not be ready for preschool.

      What if my child isn’t ready for preschool?

      You want preschool to be a positive experience for everyone. If your two or three-year-old isn’t ready, there’s no harm in waiting until they’re older to enroll them in preschool. Preschool programs usually accept students up to four years old. 

      If you think they’re just on the cusp of being ready, consider enrolling them in a part-time program. Make sure the program is at least three days a week so that they develop a sense of the routine and schedule that school adds to their life. 

      Bottom line

      There are many other factors to consider before enrolling your toddler in preschool. You might need to ask yourself:  Do they take stimulus well? Do they like being around other kids? The list goes on.

      But if you start by looking for these early indicators, you’ll be able to assess if your child is ready to join a preschool program. If your child isn’t ready yet—don’t fret! You still have options, like enrolling in an alternative program.  

      With some consideration and time, you’ll know whether to register your child for a preschool program. 

       

      Preschool age: When kids start preschool and pre-k

      If your child is nearing preschool age (typically ages 3 to 5), you may have questions about starting preschool or pre-kindergarten. Find out why preschool are pre-k are so beneficial, how they differ (and what makes them different from daycare), and when kids are ready for this important milestone.

      Preschool marks the first step in your child’s official school experience. Aimed at kids ages 3 to 5, preschool is different from daycare because teachers generally have training in early childhood education and focus on developing social, emotional, academic, and life skills.

      Also, the hours might be shorter than typical daycares, and preschools are often closed for summer, holidays, and school breaks.

      There are many different types of preschool programs. Some larger daycare centers have preschool programs, and there are a range of public and private preschool options, including parent co-ops. Preschools may be play-based, focused on academic skills, or a mix of both.

      Preschool and pre-k are intended to help kids get ready for more formal schooling, and they can provide wonderful opportunities for social, emotional, and academic growth. Think about your particular child when evaluating the variety of different preschool and pre-k options available in your area. In addition to age, consider your child’s development and needs when determining the best time to send your little one to preschool or pre-k.

      Child Height Predictor

      Find out how tall your child is likely to be at age 18.

      When do kids start preschool?

      Most preschools start accepting children around age 2.5, while some wait until children have turned 3. Preschools may require kids to be potty trained before starting school. If your child isn’t fully potty trained, talk with the school to see if they accept (and are prepared to help) children who are still mastering these skills. If not, it may be best to look for a different preschool rather than rushing potty training.

      What age is pre-k?

      Depending on your child’s age and when their birthday falls, they may have the option to go to preschool and/or pre-kindergarten. Pre-k classes are generally offered to 4-year-olds or 5-year-olds in the year before they start kindergarten.

      Some of these children have fall birthdays and turn 5 soon after the kindergarten cut-off, leaving them to wait until they’re nearly 6 to start elementary school. Pre-k classes provide a nice bridge to kindergarten, and generally focus more on school readiness skills than preschools do.

      Your child may go to preschool for two years, attend preschool and pre-k for one year each, do two years of preschool and one year of pre-k, or do another variation. It depends on the school, your child’s age, and your preferences.

      Is preschool necessary?

      Preschool can be very good at helping your child develop social and academic skills. Recent research shows that the type of preschool your child attends may play an important role in their future academic success – and that play-based programs may be most beneficial. So while you certainly can choose to have your child skip preschool, it’s smart to find other ways to involve them in play-based experiences with other kids.

      Is your child ready for preschool or pre-k?

      As you think about your child’s readiness for preschool or pre-k, remember that there are many different options to choose from. Consider your child’s personality, strengths, and needs as you make this decision. For example, if your child isn’t ready for a more traditional preschool where kids need to be able to sit and work quietly for short periods of time, you may want to find a play-based preschool that gives your child more freedom.

      Here are some signs your child is ready for preschool or pre-k:

      Your child is potty-trained and fairly independent

      Preschool requires children to have certain basic skills. Most preschools will want your child to be potty-trained. Your child should also be able to take care of some other basic needs, like washing their hands, eating lunch without a lot of assistance, and sleeping alone for naps.

      Your child is comfortable spending time away from you

      If your child has been in daycare, or cared for by a babysitter or a relative, they’ll be better prepared to separate from you when they’re at preschool. Kids who are used to being apart from their parents often bounce right into preschool with hardly a backward glance.

      But even if your child hasn’t spent much time away from you or your partner, don’t worry. Many children leave their parents for the first time to go to preschool, and they do just fine. Also, adjusting to day-to-day separations from parents is an appropriate developmental challenge for 3- to 5-year-olds.

      Your child can work on projects on their own

      Preschool usually involves lots of arts and crafts projects that require concentration and the ability to focus on an individual task. If your child likes to draw at home or gets engrossed in puzzles and other activities on their own, they’re a good candidate for preschool.

      Your child can participate in group activities

      Many preschool activities, like “circle time,” require that all the children in a class participate at the same time. These interactions give children a chance to play and learn together, but also require them to sit still, listen to stories, and sing songs.

      Preschool is a great opportunity for kids to practice these skills! But this can be difficult for children under 3 who are naturally active explorers and aren’t always developmentally ready to play with other children.

      Your child is used to a regular schedule

      Preschools usually follow a predictable routine such as circle time, activity time, snack, playing outside, then lunch. There’s a good reason for this. Children tend to feel most comfortable and in control when the same things happen at the same time each day.

      Your child has the physical stamina for preschool

      Whether it’s a half-day or full-day program, preschool keeps kids busy. There are art projects to do, friends to make, and games to play. Does your child thrive on having plenty to do, or do they have trouble moving from one thing to the next and participating in activities?

      If they have trouble, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not ready for preschool – but you may need a more flexible preschool program that can help them adjust.

      How to prepare your child for preschool

      Here are some ways to help your little one get ready for preschool:

      • Start potty training well in advance. That way they can learn at their own pace rather than rushing to meet a school deadline.
      • If your child hasn’t spent much time away from you, try to schedule some time apart – a night with grandma, for instance, or an afternoon with a sitter.
      • If your child isn’t used to group activities, start introducing them. Take them to story time at your local library, for instance, or sign them up for a class such as tumbling to help them get used to playing with other children.
      • If your child doesn’t keep to a schedule, it can help to standardize their days before preschool. Offer meals on a regular timetable and stick to a bedtime ritual (such as bath, then books, then bed).
      • Set up playtimes where your child can entertain themself for 5 to 15 minutes. While you wash the dishes, encourage your child to make creatures out of clay, for example. Gradually build up to longer stretches of solo play.
      • Try to sync your child’s nap with the preschool’s schedule. If they still need a mid-morning snooze, but naptime at preschool is after lunch, help your child adjust by gradually moving nap time a little later each day.

      What a 2-year-old should know

      If you have scoured the internet asking, “What a 2-year-old should know” or “What should my 2-year old be doing,” we are so glad you have found us!

      Let’s chat about the fantastic mind of a 2-year-old and learn about how you can support your toddler in the absolute best ways.

      Are you following my toddler Pinterest board?

      SPOILER ALERT – we are going to talk a lot about the value of reading books with your 2-year-old. We have a great guide on books for children that you can have sent straight to your inbox!

      What a 2-Year-Old Should Know

      When my son was born, I remember reading everything I could to make sure I was infusing enough language into our daily routines, ensuring that he was engaged and challenged, and always on top of the “checklists.”

      Meanwhile, I read soooo many books to him, and later looked back and realized that my love of books has now become his love of books. At age three, he sits for hours in my lap and reads book after book, never tiring of our storytime together. It has made me realize that perhaps, those developmental checklists aren’t as vital as I once deemed them.

      While you want to make sure your toddler is on track, even checklists are going to be missing some of the most important aspects in your child’s life.

      So give yourself permission to put down the checklist, remind yourself that they are little for such a short time, and focus on these important skills of love with your sweet and precious toddler.

      The Most Important Things to Treasure with your 2-Year-Old

      If I could give my child 3 things, it would be the confidence to always know their self-worth, the strength to chase their dreams, and the ability to know how deeply loved they are.

      -Anonymous

      This beautiful stage of life is all about celebrating the little moments, the first full sentence, or that first solo climb up the playground ladder. The academics will certainly take precedence later in life but in these sweet and fleeting years, it’s time to focus on love, family, and safety.

      So here is the most important list (in my book) of what a 2-year-old should know:

      A two-year-old should know that they have a family that loves them to the ends of the earth, no matter the silly mistakes they make or angry tantrums they might have (even in the middle of the grocery store, I might add).

      They should know that to be messy is to enjoy life fully.

      A two-year-old should know that when they fall and land hard, that there will always be someone to snuggle them up and whisper words of love and care.

      A two-year-old should be free to be creative and eccentric. “You want to give that elephant six trunks? Great idea!” There is no limit to the imagination.

      A two-year-old should know that they are unique and strange and wild and free and silly and brilliant all at the same time, in every way, every day. And they should be told regularly how wonderful all of those things are.

      A two-year-old should explore their interests freely. Love tools? Let’s build! Love flowers? Let’s garden. No interest in learning the alphabet song? No problem, little one… there is plenty of time for that one day. For now, let’s dress up and have that tea party with all your stuffed animal friends.

      What Parents of a 2-Year-Old Should Remember

      Parenting in this day and age is not for the faint of heart — the competition, the fast-paced lifestyle, and the MANY hats that parents have to wear each day make this job of parenting… well, heavy.

      It’s time that you take this moment to celebrate everything that you do for your little one and what is most important to your silly and loving little two-year-old.

      Remind yourself that your two-year-old wants YOU. They don’t need fancy, light-up talking toys, or academic games. The best thing you can offer your little one is undivided attention.

      Remind yourself that stepping into a child’s ego is such a delight for your two-year-old. Letting go of your adulting worries, for just a little while, and playing with your child, like a child, is simply magical.

      Remind yourself that reading to your two-year-old is the BEST predictor of academic success. Your little sponge soaks up all those magical stories and adventures and learns a multitude of things during each and every storytime. So crack open a book and dive in!

      Remind yourself that less is more. Help your two-year-old enjoy simplicity. Nature walks, moments of mindfulness, and messy art projects designed to be fun and exciting.

      Of course, don’t forget singing and dancing. Song and dance always chase away the blues and help our kiddos feel secure and loved. Check out our amazing list of the best toddler songs!

      “It is a happy talent to know how to play.”

      -Ralph Waldo Emerson

      Lastly, remind yourself that play is THE work of childhood. Free play, dramatic play, focused play, nature play, you name it. Let your 2-year-old make choices, change their mind, and do it all over again. Because they are learning SO much from it.

      One of the best ways to help your child meet the milestones for a 2-year-old is through play, art, stories, and hands-on activities. These are so beneficial to build curious little learners.

      Need somewhere to start with engaging activities that will teach the skills they need at the same time? We have planned out a fantastic set of lesson plans for toddlers.

      From colors to farm, space to transportation, we have made it easy and exciting to play and learn! You will be amazed at how the simple materials in these activities offer endless fun and excitement. Grab these toddler lesson plans in our store!

      2-Year-Old Milestones

      We talked about how those developmental checklists often get too much attention, but they can also be valuable as an overview of what your 2-year-old should know. So let’s look into some things you can do to help your 2-year-old blossom and grow in all areas!

      Language Skills for a 2-Year-Old

      • Help your toddler build language by encouraging them to carry on a conversation with you or answer simple questions. Encourage them to answer questions too!
      • Build vocabulary by talking about parts of the body, naming animals, foods, vehicles, colors, and encourage them to ask questions if they don’t know something. Warning – this may lead to the never-ending “why” phase, but know that your child is just soaking everything in and it’s temporary, ha!
      • Practice giving two-step directions to your toddler, such as, “Put your plate in the sink and get a book from your bookshelf for storytime”. Praise your toddler for a job well done or give a gentle reminder to complete that second step.

      Social-Emotional Skills for a 2-Year-Old

      • Help your child name their feelings. Share that we all have big feelings and that’s perfectly ok. Give them some ways to settle their big feelings and practice this routine together.
      • Go on playdates and invite your two-year-old to play with others. It’s totally normal if your toddler is still engaging in parallel play (the children are playing around each other but not playing together).
      • Begins taking turns with guidance and showing more independence with things like brushing teeth, dressing/undressing, or being a helper around the house.

      Motor Skills for a 2-Year-Old

      • Catches or begins to kick a ball a large ball. This is an easy way to get outside together and build those gross motor skills!
      • Jumps up with both feet off the floor and can walk up and down stairs slowly with help.
      • Can build towers with blocks or toys of about 4-7 blocks tall.
      • Is able to squeeze a spray bottle.
      • Can place stickers on a piece of paper.

      Potty Training

      Potty training is a very common milestone for two-year-olds. We have developed a potty training course, Peaceful Potty Training, to guide you along the way. Keep in mind that there is no rule that all children should be potty trained while two. Every child is ready for underwear at different ages! Don’t miss our tips on how to know when to start potty training.

      There are many skills you can work on that are life skills too:

      Encourage your child to learn to dress and undress (even if it takes longer).

      Help them become familiar and comfortable with the bathroom.

      And learn about potty training in a fun way with potty training books and potty training songs.

      These 2-year-old milestone checklists will come in due time as your child is ready.

      Young toddlers are the sweetest, albeit most indecisive little humans that absolutely steal our hearts with their tiny voices and big demands. Learning alongside them is a wild ride – exhausting but also so very special.

      I am an educator, book enthusiast, and a stay at home momma to a precious and long-awaited little boy and girl. My degree is in Early Childhood Education and Curriculum and Instruction and I have spent the last 15 years working with littles. I feel very fortunate to have this time to watch my babies grow and I can’t wait to share my passion for learning and reading with you!

      Latest posts by Lauren Vaughan (see all)

      At what age children are sent to kindergartens – when is it better to let a child go and at what age can one go to school

      When is it better to send a child to kindergarten

      development, nurseries and other institutions where you have to leave the baby for a few hours or a full day. On the other hand, not everyone is spoiled by grandmothers who are burning with the desire to devote themselves to their grandchildren, but the need to earn money and provide for the family remains. The dilemma is solved in different ways.

      The peculiarity of joining a team is a too abrupt change in schedule and social circle. It’s good if mom or dad can not work or take a vacation for 1-2 months to spend more time with the baby and follow the principle of gradualness, when the child is first left in the group for 1 hour. Then for 2 and so bring to a full day. At this point, colds may become more frequent and not all of them will be caused by an infection or a virus. Psychosomatic reasons are also possible.

      At what age do children enter kindergarten

      The optimal interval is from 1.5 to 3 years. Previously, many have not yet formed a set of simple self-service skills. Later, the habit of being in the center of attention of the family already appears, which makes it difficult to adapt.

      It is also important to look at psychological readiness. It occurs in babies at different times. There are those who are already at 1.3 closely at home and in some cases even this option is considered. If a three-year crisis has begun, then it is wiser to wait six months until the ability to negotiate and concede returns, and then plan the date when to go to kindergarten for the first time.

      If circumstances permit, it is better to start visiting from the last month of summer and smoothly enter the autumn off-season. So there will be fewer diseases, and more positive emotions from the new place and the company of peers.

      Age characteristics of children

      Most preschool institutions have the right to accept a pupil from the age of 1. But most often, beginners come to the second younger group, from 3-4 years old, and there is a logical explanation for this.

      Babies do not strive for communication, they need only knowledge of the world around them and reliable hugs from their parents. They do not yet have a desire to expand this safe circle, kids do not feel the need to share and generally perceive their peers as fun toys.

      By the age of 3, self-awareness as a person comes, conscious desires appear, the concept of compromise, curiosity gradually arises in relation to peers, attempts to establish a dialogue. Speech is developing, there is a good vocabulary, a craving for story games is visible.

      The older the child, the wider his interests and these natural impulses cannot be restrained. It is necessary to provide him with a field of activity, a developing environment, and usually this happens by 3-4 years. This interval is considered the most successful for adaptation to new conditions.

      How to understand that a child is ready for kindergarten

      There are a number of signs indicating that the time has come:

      • basic self-care skills have been formed;
      • there is a clear concept of “one’s own – someone else’s” in relation to things;
      • there is a need to engage in independent activities;
      • calmly tolerates the absence of parents nearby;
      • have an interest in classes.

      The moral aspect must be taken into account. With all the difficulty with places in groups, you need to listen to the opinion of the baby. If he categorically does not want to stay, does not allow the teacher to come to him, then he will have to postpone the first visit or find another institution. Children feel a lot on an intuitive level, and in order to avoid future problems, it is better to listen to your child.

      How to prepare for kindergarten, if it’s still too early

      The work is to be systematic and at once on 2 levels: domestic and psychological. In the first case, everything is quite simple – you need to learn how to dress, ask for a potty, recognize your things, and eat carefully. In the second, if a small homebody grows up, then visit the playground more often, go to visit, gradually forming the skill of communicating with unfamiliar people. When hyperactivity and incontinence is observed, it is necessary to show that others experience the same emotions as he does, have their own desires and needs, and this will have to be taken into account.

      It is useful to establish a clear daily routine at home, introduce them to story games, periodically do simple crafts together, and collect constructors. And also create a positive impression by talking about interesting holidays, friends who will certainly appear, joint and fun walks.

      Which kindergarden to choose: private or public

      Against the backdrop of a total shortage of places around, a large selection of non-state educational institutions, including pre-school ones, has appeared. They offer a lot of interesting programs, individual development and other bonuses, but require the financial solvency of the parents. The municipal option is much more economical, but it has its advantages and disadvantages. This aspect must be thought out in advance, weighing your desires and possibilities. It is also important to look at possible options and find out how the groups are equipped, what qualifications the educators have, whether there is a psychologist and physical education instructor on staff, whether the quality of food meets accepted standards.

      State kindergarten

      Its main advantage is accessibility. You can stand in line literally in the first days after the birth of a child. The system of work of the institution has been worked out for decades. Benefits:

      • Full compliance of conditions with the requirements of the SES, Rospotrebnadzor and other regulatory authorities;
      • low pay;
      • developmental programs are developed taking into account the subsequent transition to school, guarantee training at a general level;
      • balanced nutrition;
      • the regime of the day is observed strictly;
      • the staff must have a nurse and a psychologist;
      • offers additional classes for the disclosure of creative data.

      Having found out at what age children go to kindergarten and specifying how pupils are admitted in accordance with the charter, you can slowly prepare the child, walk several times to the walking area, watch how others play, accustom him to the idea that there good and he will be happy.

      Disadvantages are a large number of groups, sometimes up to 30 people, an average system of development with a focus on mass character, problems with staffing.

      Private kindergarten

      Children are accepted here from a very early age, their number is small, so an individual approach to each is implemented. The undoubted advantage is modern equipment, bright design of the playing area, developing programs using author’s methods. You can choose several types of activities, forming a personal vector with an emphasis on the area of ​​interest to the child at the moment. The food is more varied, but within the limits recommended by nutritionists by age.

      When visiting, you can choose the hourly option or the full day with daytime naps. In short-stay groups, they are guided by a busy work schedule, with obligatory game minutes and free creativity time.

      Many consider the high cost of services and the lack of regular control by inspection bodies to be the main disadvantage.

      The positive aspects of the kindergarten

      A person cannot exist outside of society, therefore, it is necessary to form the skills of a good neighborhood with peers from an early age, so that a boy or girl can easily find a compromise, learn to act in a team, be responsible for their actions without discounting age and privileged position in the family. It is these tasks, along with systematic development, that are considered the main ones in a preschool institution, regardless of its form of ownership.

      Rules and boundaries

      When discussing with relatives at what age to send a child to kindergarten, it is necessary to take into account that there are rules of behavior for pupils. For those who have formed the habit of getting their way with screaming and tantrums, adaptation will be difficult. It is worth acquainting the baby in advance with the fact that not everything will be according to his desire, you need to focus on others. It is also important to tell that in the garden there is a daily routine and an algorithm for conducting classes in which it is required to fulfill the requests of the teacher.

      A sense of collectivism

      A very useful skill that allows you to calmly enter any circle in the future without experiencing much stress from changing conditions. Toddlers gradually master the art of negotiating, playing together, giving in to another. Parents should pay attention to the fact that the desire to “be with everyone” does not develop into dependence on someone else’s opinion. And this is already the task of the family – to teach, without violating the general order and not to the detriment of others, to defend their point of view, giving arguments.

      Motor activity

      A modern child begins to understand gadgets much earlier, ignoring the need for walks and communication. There is a clear daily routine and a considerable place is given to sports games, musical and rhythmic entertainment, and recreational activities. Hypodynamia does not threaten. For those who have energy in full swing, you can choose a sports or dance circle. They work in most kindergartens of any type.

      Daily routine

      It can be argued that it is not needed and considered as a restriction of freedom. But a clear routine is necessary for babies and older children to maintain health, as periods of activity alternate with rest and quiet games. Food is taken on time, walks and activities are distributed taking into account age characteristics. Daily adherence to the schedule keeps the child’s physiological, psychological and emotional state normal, especially if he is hyperactive and constantly aroused. Gradually, his tension is removed, and his behavior stabilizes.

      Preparing for school

      Continuity in learning is necessary for a smooth transition to the next stage of development. Ensuring family adherence to this principle is difficult. In kindergarten, it is the foundation. That is why kids, moving from one group to another, master more and more complex skills, based on the experience gained earlier.

      They broaden their horizons, learn to communicate on various topics, master new skills. The work is carried out on the basis of the approved educational program.

      Order and manners

      A well-mannered person greets guests, thanks for their help, uses the whole arsenal of polite words, knows how to behave at the table and put his things away. Educators teach this from the first days, and the child will feel confident in any society.

      Negative aspects

      Some parents are categorically against the pre-school institution, arguing that:

      • children get sick more often;
      • have a hard time being separated from loved ones;
      • do not eat the dishes offered for breakfast;
      • unreasonable whims begin and behavior worsens;
      • not quite decent words slip through the speech.

      At the same time, providing a baby with greenhouse conditions at home means dooming him to severe stress when faced with the realities of life. Knowing what disadvantages can be when visiting a kindergarten, you can try to minimize the consequences.

      Separation from family

      The absence of a mother or father nearby is hard for some children. The educator, with a group size of 25-30 pupils, is not able to give everyone as much attention as he had previously received at home. If this state of affairs is too hard to bear, it is worth postponing visits to the preschool.

      Also, the baby will inevitably demand independence. So that he does not receive negative emotions again, it is advisable not to limit his communication only to his inner circle. You need to accustom to the kindergarten gradually, adding the time spent by 1-2 hours as you adapt in the team.

      Lack of development of the child’s individuality

      With a large number of children, it is really difficult to ensure the full disclosure of talents and abilities. Programs are compiled with a focus on average age data. The main task is to create a stock of basic knowledge and skills.

      On the other hand, nothing prevents parents from simultaneously enrolling a child in an art, sports or music school, attending theaters and exhibitions with him, Sunday creative studios for preschoolers.

      A bad example of other pupils

      It is unlikely that parents will be pleased with the replenishment of the heir’s vocabulary with obscene words or an attempt to clean his nose with his finger. Bad habits are formed instantly, but there is reason to talk about it, to discuss whether it is worth imitating a playmate in everything or having your own opinion, adhering to it.

      Frequent morbidity

      Questions about when you can go and at what age to send your child to kindergarten, it is better for parents to decide, based on the condition of the baby. But at any age, when conditions change, his immunity inevitably decreases, and the reason here is not only in the cool air in the bedroom or not wearing a scarf for a walk. The diet, daily regimen is changing, there is also an emotional component. You can help by hardening, increasing the share of vegetables and fruits in the menu, and, of course, parental love.

      Food problems

      Every family has its own taste preferences and favorite dishes. But the diet in kindergarten is compiled taking into account the recommendations of nutritionists, and the pupil does not always like it. There are also personal whims. They gradually cease when the spirit of collectivism kicks in. Seeing that the others dine with appetite, the child also decides to try what was offered.

      If you have an allergy to certain foods, you must inform the nurse in advance. Other side dishes or drinks are prepared for such children.

      Personnel problems

      Unfortunately, the prestige and salary of an educator are not as great as we would like. Most of the graduates of the departments of preschool education prefer to change their direction of activity immediately after the final exams. And often this is the most talented category. When choosing a kindergarten and a group, pay attention to the personality of the teacher, or rather, introduce the child to him and look at his reaction. If he stretched, then everything is in order. In case of a sharp refusal to communicate, it is better to look for another option.

      Recommendations about when and at what age children most want to go to kindergarten can vary. The main thing is that the baby is mentally prepared for the event, has the necessary household skills and strives for new experiences.

      Choosing a kindergarten is a complex, important and time-consuming process . If you plan that your child should start going to kindergarten from September 1 of the current year, you must select a suitable preschool institution in advance and submit documents between February 1 and May 31.

      “Social Navigator” has prepared a number of general tips that can make it easier for parents to choose an organization for preschool education.

      At the moment, in large cities, the situation has developed in such a way that the choice of preschool education directly affects the school where the child will be and continue his education. This is primarily due to the fact that many kindergartens are assigned to schools. It’s worth thinking about it now, because the closer to the age when a child should go to first grade, the more difficult it is to find a suitable option.

      Kindergartens of Russia – 2017

      Of course, all parents start looking for a place for their child from what is within walking distance. This aspect is one of the most relevant when choosing a kindergarten, which is confirmed by the results of the ONF survey. A large distance between the house and the garden will create additional difficulties. This may affect the attendance of children. At the same time, the territorial accessibility of our kindergartens is assessed as high, more than half of the parents get to preschool institutions on foot. Some families who pay special attention to this issue even change their place of residence in connection with the birth of children.

      Kindergarten staff

      A well-located kindergarten is an important but not a key issue. The most important thing is the staffing. Here you need to pay attention to teachers: do they have a higher pedagogical education, an appropriate (preschool) education. Of course, the human factor cannot be ruled out, you need to try to get to know each other personally, to get to know the future teacher better.

      Kindergartens: strengths and weaknesses of early childhood education

      It is worth choosing a kindergarten where there is a full-time psychologist. The importance of the constant work of a specialized teacher with your child cannot be underestimated.

      You also need to pay attention to the presence of a nurse: in general, the situation here is positive. In approximately 75% of cases, there are people who are ready to provide first aid to children.

      There is a staffing problem in the regions: local authorities are fighting queues for kindergartens not at the expense of new buildings, but by increasing the density of groups. Therefore, the number of children in one group can sometimes reach up to 45 people, with an average of 25. Therefore, it is worth choosing the kindergarten where the ratio of teaching staff and support staff (cooks, cleaners) is better in relation to children.

      Education

      Next, you should pay attention to the program used by the preschool educational organization. Among the comprehensive programs (covering all five educational areas and aimed at the versatile development of the child’s personality) are:

      • “From birth to school” edited by N.E. Veraksa, T.S. Komarova, M.A. Vasilyeva.
      • “Childhood” edited by T.I. Babaeva, A.G. Gogoberidze, O.V. Sunny
      • “Origin” edited by L.A. Paramonova

      Of the partial programs (covering one of the educational areas and aimed at the local development of any ability or skill), the most common are: Avdeeva, O.L. Knyazeva, R.B. Sterkin

    • “Young ecologist” S.N. Nikolaev
    • “Colored hands” I. A. Lykova
    • “Musical Masterpieces” by O.P. Radynova
    • The above programs are the most popular and most often used in kindergartens, however, each parent should choose the appropriate education plan for their child individually, based on the child’s preferences, strengths and weaknesses.

      Kindergarten through the eyes of parents: fees, meals, additional services Almost every Russian child attends a kindergarten. This is an important stage in the life of the baby and his parents. What expenses the family bears, how they get to the kindergarten, whether they are satisfied with the nutrition of the preschool child – on the eve of the Child Protection Day, see the infographic of the “Social Navigator” of the MIA “Russia Today”.

      Also study the kindergarten itself and the organization of child safety. For example, the presence of a fenced area for walking, as well as specially equipped playgrounds. Is there a day guard? Are computers and electronic means used for classes? Such additional services for children as a swimming pool, of course, will be a huge plus.

      In conclusion, it should be noted that 71% of parents highly appreciate the condition of the kindergarten where their child studies. The results of the study “Kindergartens of Russia – 2017”, made with the support of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, as well as the Institute for the Study of Childhood, Family and Education of the Russian Academy of Education with the support of the “Social Navigator” MIA “Russia Today”, can also help you with the search.

        New “preschool” standard

        From 2022, new educational standards come into force in Moscow preschool institutions — a set of rules for preschool institutions, according to which the educational process is built, methods are applied, and results are also evaluated.

        Preschool education in the capital is the first step in lifelong general education: preschool teachers and primary school teachers cooperate, share experiences, and jointly develop programs for children. This approach helps the children to prepare more easily for the transition to the first grade. What does the standard govern? What classes are held with children, how many times a week, in what areas do children gain knowledge and skills? The answers are in our material.

        Taking care of your baby’s health

        In kindergarten, the baby finds himself in a new environment, surrounded by children and adults. Chief freelance specialist in primary health care for the children’s population, chief physician of the Children’s City Polyclinic No. 110, Ph.D. Elmira Kashirina told how to protect a child from infectious diseases and answered the most common questions parents have about their children’s health.

        Short stay group

        Short stay group ensures the all-round development of the child and creates the basis for further successful adaptation to enrolling in a full-time preschool group.

        By attending such a group, a child will be able to learn how to play, find new friends, have an interesting and useful time, get used to a new environment, acquire communication skills with peers and new adults. At the same time, the child does not experience a sharp change in living conditions, as happens when the baby moves immediately to attending a full-day group. When visiting a short-stay group, the process of adaptation to a full-day group is the most calm and comfortable for the child and family.

        Tasty and healthy:

        what is fed in kindergarten

        One of the most common questions of parents is what they will feed their baby in kindergarten, who prepares food, controls the quality and safety of dishes. The quality of dishes from the menu for kids is under the strictest multi-stage control of a number of organizations: state supervisory authorities, control authorities of the subject of Moscow, food quality control by representatives of the parent community, internal audit of specialists from the Association of Social Catering Enterprises and others. 9Olga Antonova why he does not want to eat porridge, how to calm him down if he cries in the morning and does not want to go to the garden, what to tell the teacher about the family and the child

        A child’s readiness for kindergarten is determined by several parameters. The first thing a child should be able to do is to be socialized, not to be afraid to make contact with unfamiliar adults – of course, with the permission of the parents. It is important. It is very difficult for children who have a painful attachment to their mother. It is the mother who should calmly let him go for 5-6 hours, and the child should endure this separation without unnecessary worries.

        The second point: it’s good if the child already has basic household skills. Be able to go to the toilet on a potty (according to age, if we are talking about 2.2 years old), hold cutlery in your hands, be able to undress yourself (remove simple clothes without unnecessary fasteners and details), and for about three years – and dress.

        The third point: it is important that the baby knows how to express his requests (not afraid and not embarrassed to ask) if he wants something. For example, if he does not know how to go to the toilet on his own, he could ask an adult for help. Or make it clear that he wants to drink, show that he is hot. Even if the baby still does not speak well, he can show it in other, non-verbal ways.

        The fourth is food. The child must be able to eat food that needs to be chewed.

        And the last thing: the baby should be ready for the daily routine of the preschool institution: walks, one-time naps, meals according to the schedule.

        If you can put a “plus” next to all these items, your child is ready to attend kindergarten. If some points caused difficulties, it is necessary to work in this direction. If the child is not ready for all of the above points, then it may be worthwhile to postpone visiting the kindergarten, give yourself and the baby time to prepare.

        One of the indicators of readiness for kindergarten is the ability to express one’s desires in an acceptable way. Often, children get used to behaving like this, because at home, through these actions, they manage to achieve what they want. It is necessary to wean from this child in a timely manner, because biting and scratching is unacceptable in kindergarten. Show your child other forms of interaction. Suppose a child wants something, but does not get what he wants and begins to bite and fight. The most competent strategy – the parent pretends that he does not understand what the child wants. Only when the baby expresses his request in a different way, the adult will do what he wants. Biting, scratching are quite common phenomena, such “primitive” ways of a child communicating with others. But in order to avoid problems in kindergarten, we recommend that parents bring their child to children’s groups in advance. Walk together, spend holidays, go on excursions with children of the same age. There he will gain the first experience and learn the right interaction, so that he knows that you can’t take someone else’s: you can share, you can go for an exchange.

        There is such a pattern: an anxious mother is an anxious baby. When a family decides to send a child to a kindergarten, it is necessary to prepare him psychologically. First of all, it is necessary for the parents themselves. Get to know the teacher. As a rule, this is a professional who has all the communication skills, loves children and takes care of the child. Educators in baby groups are affectionate, kind, sometimes they even guess what the children want by their gestures and looks. They do everything to make them feel good there. If mom sees that this is a caring and professional person, she will calm down and trust. The willingness of a mother to send her child to kindergarten is a matter of trust. You need to let go of this situation, and the baby will independently master the new space. Some mothers make the mistake of coming to the kindergarten and picking up the child, asking questions: “Did you feel bad here?”, “Did someone offend you?”. On the contrary, it is better to ask positive questions: “Who did you play with?”, “What did you find interesting?”, “What did you eat tasty?”, so that in response the child reports positive information and focuses on it. Remember that parents can always be in touch with caregivers to clarify how the baby feels.

        Develop your child’s adaptive abilities as early as possible, right from birth. Let him do what he can do on his own. The kid went, and the mother all the time says: “Don’t go there”, “Don’t do that”, constantly builds boundaries in front of him. Is the situation familiar? With this behavior of the mother, the child does not receive the necessary experience of mistakes, it will be difficult for him to learn anything. Train your child to be without a mother: take a nanny to help, ask a grandmother or a friend to sit with him. Take your child to different places outside the home. Mom herself gets used to doing without a child and not thinking about him every minute. This is an important workout for mom and baby.

        It is important to teach the child to communicate with adults and find a common language with other children, as well as to express their needs in forms that are acceptable to the child. For example, if he does not speak, then teach him to use gestures. Will your baby be able to come up, take a familiar adult by the hand and lead him where he needs to go? Develop this skill.

        It also happens that a child cries and whims achieves what he wants. This is unacceptable in a group of children. In such a situation, stop him and try to agree: “I don’t understand you. Calm down, please, show me what you want.” The contract element is important and should always be present.

        In children, the inhibition of emotions is delayed, and the excitation mechanism prevails. Therefore, if the baby cannot calm down and cries, then it is best for an adult to hug him, pronouncing his emotions: “it’s difficult for you now,” “you’re offended.” This will help him calm down. When the child is already calm, you can say: “If you want something, don’t cry, but ask, please.” Give the child what he requires after he calms down.

        Short stay groups were created mainly for working parents. Until the age of 2.5–3 years, a child can safely do without attending a kindergarten, especially if the family can afford it. If parents see that their child is already socialized at the age of 1.5–2 years, very contact, everything is interesting to him and he is ready to go beyond his home environment, then you can send him to a short stay group. Difficulties in adaptation can be – this is normal. Easy adaptation lasts 2-3 weeks, average – up to 4 months. If it becomes severe, it can last up to a year. Well socialized children may well go to a short stay group of one and a half years.

        If a correct system of upbringing is developed in the family, then he receives everything he needs from birth. And gradually, as a rule, by the age of three, the baby himself matures to daily communication, surrounded by small children. Psychologists advise starting preparations for kindergarten about six months in advance.

        You can walk with your child to the kindergarten. And tell them that the kindergarten is a big house where children, together with kind adults, play and have fun while moms and dads work. Parents must come for all children. The kindergarten is good, fun, a lot of toys.

        Don’t constantly tell your child that he will be going to kindergarten soon. Just tell and show.

        In the first days, when a mother brings a child to a kindergarten, it is important not to run away, leaving him there, but to calmly explain that the mother will definitely return very soon and everything will be fine. Wave your hand to the baby, kiss before leaving. The element of forgiveness should not hurt.

        Too fast tempo introduces the child into an anxious state. Better be patient! You need to plan the morning so that the fees go smoothly. Give the child time to wake up, stretch, hug, calmly gather in the garden, do not rush him, do not pull. Most often, the cause of tears is in a banal haste.

        I need to say if there are any medical contraindications, allergies. Tell what the child can do on his own, what he likes or dislikes. It is important to talk about some individual reactions of the child to something. Perhaps your family has some rituals or safe words. Tell us what helps the child calm down and fall asleep: maybe strokes or kind words? Tell what actions can help to establish contact with the child.

        This largely depends on the anxiety of the parents, the strong attachment of the mother to the child. It happens that a mother, over the years of being with a child nearby, gets so used to him that it seems to her that he cannot cope without her. In fact, everything is possible, all children adapt.

        If the mother does not have anxiety, but the child still cannot calmly go to the garden, psychosomatics cannot be ruled out. For example, before the kindergarten, the child spoke a little, and during the period of adaptation he stopped talking. Or he asked for a potty, and in the first weeks of going to the garden he stopped. A small regression for two or three weeks is the norm. Everything will be restored when the baby gets used to kindergarten. If the process is delayed, if the child withdraws into himself, is apathetic, sleeps poorly, eats poorly, is not interested in toys, it is imperative to understand the reasons. It is worth talking with a teacher, consult a pediatrician, a psychologist.

        A common mistake is too drastic changes for a child when he is immediately left for the whole day in kindergarten. The child is more comfortable with gradual adaptation over 2-3 weeks. It is better to start from 2-4 hours. Sometimes it’s a good idea to just come and walk around the playground with the guys.

        When we bring a child to a kindergarten, this does not mean that he has become an adult and he does not need motherly affection. It can be said that he grew up and learned a lot. The child in the same way needs attention, tenderness, hugs, praise – this is very important.

        A common mistake is that parents are too critical of the kindergarten. It happens that they don’t like something and discuss the negative with the child. If something worries you about the teacher, regimen, nutrition, it is better to discuss this with the teacher or the leadership of the preschool institution without the presence of the baby.

        It is really hard for a child to get used to unfamiliar food. Check out the Kindergarten menu. Try to change your home diet, bring it closer to the menu of a preschool institution. Limit salt, sugar, spices, make the menu healthier for the whole family. Include cereals, soups, casseroles, fruits (apples, oranges, bananas) in your diet. It is advisable to do this at least six months before the first acquaintance with kindergarten. But if you start when the baby is already in a group, gradually he will get used to such food. A healthier diet will benefit the whole family.

    Parents scramble to find open childcare spots in Tampa Bay

    Parents scramble to find open childcare spots in Tampa Bay

    PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. — Tampa Bay parents tell ABC Action News they’re in the middle of a childcare crisis. Thousands of families are on waiting lists as they scramble to find places for their young children to be cared for while they work.

    Sophie Sandelin is getting a lot of extra time in with her kids. The Clearwater mom has spent 7 months looking for childcare for her daughter Ava and her son Ezra. She’s even looked across three different cities.

    “I checked up in Safety Harbor, up in Palm Harbor, over in Dunedin and none of them had availability,” she said with a sigh.

    In Pinellas County alone, the Early Learning Coalition of Pinellas County estimates more than 3,000 children are currently on waiting lists for childcare.

    “One of the schools said they are two years out on their waiting list,” Sandelin recalled from one of her phone calls.

    Stefanie Van Riper has been dealing with similar issues, “It’s really, really, really tough finding childcare,” she said with frustration.

    Van Riper finally found a spot at a licensed in-home childcare, but that’s after she called more than 40 places looking for a spot for her kids. She spent a month and a half relying on babysitters so that she could continue to work.

    “You can’t expect your employer to not have an employee so they can take care of their kids for 6 weeks, but babysitters are expensive too,” she added.

    ABC Action News Reporter Sarah Hollenbeck went to Facebook to ask parents about this problem and nearly 140 people weighed in on the topic. Some of you asked if the pandemic is causing a shortage in spots.

    ABC Action News pulled the numbers in Hillsborough County. Pre-pandemic in late March of 2019, there were 1,072 childcare facilities. This spring, there are 1,047. That’s 25 fewer child care facilities now compared to pre-pandemic, according to Hillsborough County Government leaders.

    In Pinellas County, there were 693 child care facilities open pre-pandemic in April of 2019. There are 634 facilities now. That’s 59 fewer child care facilities now compared to pre-pandemic, according to the Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County.

    Yet, while there are fewer facilities open, child care experts tell ABC Action News that the bigger problem is staffing. They say existing child care facilities don’t even have enough staff to take on the number of kids they’re licensed for.

    Lindsay Carson, the CEO of the Early Learning Coalition of Pinellas County says that’s impacting infant, toddler and two-year-old spots greatly. “About 40% of our providers have a waiting list due to staffing shortages so that represents 300, 400 providers throughout Pinellas County with a waiting list,” she elaborated.

    It’s concerning for Lynn Gibson. Gibson heads up Lynn’s Tender Touch Daycare. Her licensed at-home daycare has operated in Pinellas County for 34 years.

    “I really think this is a crisis,” she explained. “If I could go bigger with my childcare, I would. The problem is I’ve even been offering part-time work to people and can’t get people to come in and work.”

    Gibson says she receives as many as 15 calls a day from parents looking for a spot. Gibson spends whatever time she can talking to lawmakers and asking for help.

    “We’ve taken it all the way to congress trying to say we need help out here because without it we can’t keep going,” she said.

    Child Care Coalitions on both sides of the bay are working to train more early learning workers while making the jobs more attractive.

    “We offer sign on bonuses, free training, we connect them with potential employers,” Carson added.

    In Hillsborough County, Media Relations employee Hilary Zalla tells ABC Action News some childcare facilities that once had multiple infant rooms now may operate only one infant room, and programs offering multiple VPK classes are struggling to offer even one class. One provider Zalla spoke with recently had 44 children registered for VPK in the fall but has been able to hire only one credentialed teacher, which means that 33 children will have to look for VPK slots in other programs, which are equally short-staffed.

    Hillsborough County Child Care Licensing, in conjunction with CareerSource Tampa Bay recently offered a first-of-its-kind virtual job fair for child care professionals. 21 child care programs participated in this inaugural event. Hillsborough County is looking to offer additional job fairs this year.

    Time is of the essence to get more workers trained. The Early Learning Coalition says 17% of child care centers in Pinellas County are at risk of closing because of staff shortages, which would put parents in an even bigger pickle.

    WFTS

    Sandelin is still working to figure out her options. “I may just consider homeschooling. I don’t know what to do at this point,” she said. “I’m hoping that more people will see the need and fill the need. ” Carson says her organization has helped connect many families with ELC vouchers and yet many can’t find spots to use the vouchers because of the waiting lists.

    Gibson hopes more people will follow her lead and open home daycare businesses. While the businesses have to be licensed and often need higher insurance policies, Gibson says it’s been a wonderful career for her to excel at and follow the families in her care for years.

    Currently, there are 256 at-home childcare centers in Pinellas County.

    Gibson suggested people interested in opening at-home childcare businesses can participate in a $25 session to learn how to start the business. The next session is May 25 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Anyone interested can contact Lisa at 727-275-6493 or Paula at 727-275-6483.

    The lack of childcare is also leading to nationwide impacts. The United States Labor Force now has 1 million fewer women working than it did when the pandemic began and childcare has been cited as one of the major reasons why, according to the National Women’s Law Center. The cost of childcare now amounts to 31% of the average income for women.

    Kindergartens and schools in the USA

    Kindergartens and schools in the USA – in this article we will talk about them, as well as what foreign families can count on.

    Education for children is a matter of paramount importance for parents. With schooling, everything seems to be clear – secondary education is compulsory in almost every country. But what about preschool education? Kindergarten attendance is mostly voluntary. Most parents opt for preschools. But the lack of places and sometimes high fees force them to refuse kindergarten services.

    If a child is born in the United States, he automatically becomes a citizen of that country. In terms of education, this gives him the opportunity to attend public kindergartens and study in public schools free of charge.

    Unfortunately, public kindergartens and schools in the US are not available to foreigners. Therefore, a child who does not have the status of a citizen or permanent resident of the country can only attend private institutions of preschool and primary education (age group – from 5 to 14 years, that is, up to grade 8).

    F-1 visas are issued for children to attend kindergarten and study at any American school.

    Kindergarten

    Preschool in the United States begins at the age of five and lasts for a year, from age five to six. In some states, kindergarten is compulsory. There are no public kindergartens in the US for children under the age of five, only private ones. They are quite expensive. Prices vary depending on:

    • State
    • educational programs
    • time of visit (e.g. full or part time, all year or September to May)
    • the prestige of the area and the garden itself.

    A year of a full day in kindergarten can cost from 2,000 to 8,000 dollars on average. Or maybe 25-35 thousand – in New York, for example. In many kindergartens, a full day is considered the time the child stays from 9:00 to 14:45. Time from 8:00 to 9:00 and from 14:45 to 18:00 is paid separately. You can choose absolutely any private kindergarten – there is no attachment to the place of residence. It all depends on the needs and budget of the family.

    You can send your child to kindergarten even up to 2 years, or more precisely, from one month, but the cost in this case is almost doubled. And, of course, such gardens are not easy to find.

    There are several types of kindergartens for children from 2 to 4 years old. There are home-type gardens – its owner must obtain permission to organize a kindergarten on the territory of his house and a certificate for a certain number of children to stay in it. There are also large gardens, reminiscent of Russian ones in organization. There is a clear division into groups, ages.

    Note that kindergartens vary from state to state. It all depends on the laws of a particular state.

    For Russian-speaking kids there are private kindergartens where communication is in Russian. Most often, these are home kindergartens. They are designed for an average of 8 people, because this is the number of children that one teacher who has received a license can bring up. The age of children admitted to such a kindergarten is from 2 years and older. They are cheaper than American ones, breakfast and lunch are included in their price, there is no language barrier in communication. Of the minuses, parents often name the fact that in such kindergartens there is not as much as they would like, they pay attention to developmental activities and creativity (for example, modeling or drawing), and in one group there can be both monthly babies and one and a half year old children.

    Kindergarten enrollment

    The first step is to submit an application to enroll your child in kindergarten. The administration of the children’s institution considers the application for one month and confirms or rejects it. Filing an application is paid – approximately from 100 to 300 dollars.

    Kindergarten fees are obligatory and are paid for all days, including holidays and weekends, as well as days when the child does not attend kindergarten (for example, in case of illness). If a child stays in the kindergarten longer than the closing time of the kindergarten, a certain amount set by the administration of the child care institution is automatically deducted from the parent’s account. But there are no fees “for the arrangement of the class”, “the teacher’s birthday”, and so on.

    Children are divided into age groups. These groups, in turn, are also divided into full-time and part-time groups. The first group – primary – children 2-3 years old, the second group – intermediate – children from 3 to 4 years. Everyone works according to their own schedule, which is drawn up a year in advance. Parents receive daily descriptions of what their children did during the day.

    Child’s stay in kindergarten

    Once every six months, educators conduct an assessment, which assesses the child’s language abilities, literacy, knowledge of numbers and numeracy, understanding of the cause-and-effect relationship and the environment. Depending on the individual abilities of the child, the opinions of the educators and the wishes of the parents, the child is transferred to the older group. Communication between the administration of the garden and parents always takes place in writing – by e-mail.

    Most often in American kindergartens there is no food, the child brings all the food from home.

    It should also be borne in mind that, since every day in the garden is paid regardless of whether the child comes or not, parents often bring their children sick. Only a temperature above 38 degrees can force the caregiver to call the parents with a request to pick up the child. By law, he must stay at home for at least one day. So you can’t go back to the garden the next day. But, if the child was at the doctor’s office and received any medication, he can come to the garden after 12 hours. Moreover, parents must write down the dosage and schedule of taking medications so that educators can track the intake of medications.

    Nanny

    In most cases, babysitting services are cheaper than kindergarten. On average, from 7 to 15 dollars per hour, depending on the level of professionalism of the nanny (of course, students who want to earn extra money are paid less than professional babysitters).

    School

    There are three stages of school education in the USA:

    • elementary school – children 5-12 years old;
    • secondary school – children aged 13-14;
    • higher (high) school – children aged 15-18.

    As mentioned above, foreign children cannot attend public schools for free. The only exception is international school exchange programs. In this case, a foreign participant in the program is enrolled in a public school for a period of study of up to 12 months.

    In secondary school (from 9th grade) the child can also study in public schools. But here there is the same limitation – no more than 12 months. In addition, the student’s family must reimburse the full cost of the course for one person.

    To transfer or enroll a child in an American school, you must present:

    • birth certificate;
    • certificates of vaccination and reaction to tuberculosis;
    • visas;
    • the so-called “address confirmation” – proof of residence in the city in which the child goes to school.

    Before starting school, the student must go to an ESL class where English is a second language. Then he will be transferred to a regular class. Which one depends on which school he goes to. If it is a primary (zero to fifth grade) or middle (sixth to seventh) school, then the grade depends on age.

    Every state has special Russian schools for Russian-speaking children. Despite the fact that classes are usually conducted in English, the program includes the Russian language and Russian literature. Most often, such schools are opened at Orthodox churches. It happens that in ordinary schools additional classes in the Russian language are introduced.

    In addition, there are all kinds of studios, educational centers and circles for Russian children: figure skating, ballet, dancing, drawing, gymnastics and many others. Russian teachers work here, classes are held only in Russian.

    Regular schools (both public and private) also have extra-curricular activities. This is volleyball, basketball, cheerleading, drawing and more. Most often they are paid separately.

    The approximate cost of studying in a private school, depending on the state, can be found here.

    “Tampa” does not leave attempts to keep the team Ondrej Palat . Earlier it became known that the 31-year-old striker is close to entering the free agent market, having not agreed with the club on a new contract.

    “Expect another offer from the Chamber,” wrote TSN insider Pierre LeBrun.

    The Czech forward is an unrestricted free agent. Under the expiring deal, his cap hit is $5.3 million a year.

However, the Great Depression and machine rollers ended the boom and most of the factories were closed and demolished. The area has experienced a revival in recent years and is home to many shops, galleries, restaurants and cafes. Seventh Avenue in the city of Ybor, known in Spanish as “Septima”, has some of the area’s most historic buildings, several of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

    Ybor City’s Columbia Restaurant is the oldest state and the largest Spanish restaurant in the country. This historic institution was founded in 1905 by Cuban immigrant Casimiro Hernandez, Sr. Colombia is famous for its Spanish cuisine, dining shows and old world architectural charm.

    Driving across the new bridge offers great ocean views, and the bridge itself is also impressive and often photographed by tourists.

    Where to Stay in Tampa for Sightseeing

    There are several good places in Tampa, depending on your reason for visiting. Staying in the city center is a great option for sightseeing and entertainment. You may want to stay close to Busch Gardens if that is your main reason for visiting, or near the stadium if you are going to watch a football match. Below are some highly rated hotels in these top locations.

    • Luxury Hotels : Centrally located, Le Meridien is an upscale hotel in a former federal courthouse and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A bit out of the city center action but in a nice area is the modern Epicurean Hotel. If you’re coming to Tampa to see a game, the renaissance close to Raymond James Stadium is a great option.
    • Mid-Range Hotels : Downtown Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel and Marina overlooking the waterfront; pleasant outside patios; and large comfortable rooms. In the same category is the Sheraton Tampa Riverwalk, also with great location and scenic views. Both of them have pools and are conveniently located for visiting Ybor City or the Florida Aquarium. In a stunning location in the Historic Ybor District, the Hilton Garden Inn features an outdoor pool and hot tub. The Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites Tampa N, near Busch Gardens, is a good choice for families.
    • Cheap Hotels : A short drive from Ybor City is the Quality Inn and Suites, with a great location for this price range. Near the Raymond James Stadium is the inexpensive Comfort Suites. Also good value and near the stadium – Clarion. Both are a bit far from the city center but within a reasonable distance if you have a car and ideally located if you are here to see the game.

    Tips and Tours: How to Make the Most of Your Visit to Tampa

    • Save money: If you’re planning to visit some of Tampa’s best attractions, the Tampa TRIO Pass will save you money.

    AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED

    We’re so proud!

    Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
    and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.

    SCHOOL-READY

    What Learning Looks Like

    Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

    Eastlake KinderCare Programs

    Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)

    Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
    centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
    you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
    classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
    ready to explore their world.

    Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)

    Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
    because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
    place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
    help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.

    Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)

    This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
    of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
    discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
    classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
    get used to a more structured school setting.

    Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)

    This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
    about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
    preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
    artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
    kindergarten!

    Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)

    When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
    writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
    letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
    in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
    math, science, Spanish, and social skills.

    Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)

    You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
    at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
    back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
    create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
    will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!

    School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)

    Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
    can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
    on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
    sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.

    Participating Child Care Aware Center

    KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
    Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
    Development Center on the installation is not available.

    Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

    Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)

    In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
    develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
    rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
    and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!

    Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)

    KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
    Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
    instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
    science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
    way of learning the foundations of music.

    Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)

    Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
    books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
    From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
    and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
    attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
    have the data to prove it.)

    Spanish

    Spanish Adventures provides young learners with a foundation for later success with
    the Spanish language. Music, games, children’s Spanish literature, and other tools give
    children multiple opportunities to hear, practice, and see Spanish language to develop
    vocabulary and conversation skills. Curriculum includes lessons on greetings, numbers,
    colors, animals, family, body parts, and pets, as well as how to engage conversationally
    during common scenarios at home, a restaurant, or at the zoo.

    STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)

    You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
    what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
    make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
    more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
    amazing things!

    Our Teachers

    We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
    KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
    we love our teachers and your child will, too.

    Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!

    A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH

    An Artist’s Heart

    “My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.

    We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
    When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
    an amazing place to learn and grow.

    Family Stories

    Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!

    • My son Ethan has been enrolled in Phonics & Reading Adventures at KinderCare since he was three years old. Now he is five years old and he is reading and writing well above the “standard” for kindergarten! I believe Learning Adventures has helped Ethan reach this high level of reading and writing.

      Emily G. – KinderCare Parent
    • I have enrolled my baby to Eastlake KinderCare infant class and Mila just loves all the stimulation and the teachers. They are very caring and make sure that they are meeting the needs of my baby and at the same time meeting the other children’s needs. Not only do the teachers tell me about my child’s day, but they show me as well with pictures of my daughter throughout the day and all the activities that they do. I love the care that they provide for my daughter Mila.

    History

    East Lake, one of Atlanta’s most historic neighborhoods, is located 7. 2 miles from downtown Atlanta. With its 1910s-40s bungalows and cottages and its convenience to local eateries, shops, and public transportation (MARTA), East Lake has experienced a rebirth in recent years. [ citation needed ]

    East Lake is located in a 19th century building. the plantation is owned by Lieutenant Colonel Robert Augustus Alston, whose home, known as Meadow Nook, still stands opposite the East Lake golf course. This pre-war home was built in 1856 for his South Carolina fiancee, and was occupied during the American Civil War. This is the second oldest house in Atlanta that has not been burned down by Union General William T. Sherman and his troops.

    In 1892 the East Lake Land Company was chartered, the land was purchased and divided into lots. A.K. Bruce was president of the East Lake Land Company and was instrumental in building a line of streetcars on the Right of Way (now East Lake Drive), which in 1893 began running cars every 20 minutes. This helped increase the demand for cars. small cottages, many of which were purchased by the Atlanteans, around the lake to escape the city during the summer months. By the recession of 1896, this had become an unfortunate development. The large indoor pavilion and the beach served as an amusement park until 1900 year.

    In 1899, Asa Candler, who was then building Coca-Cola into a national badge, began secretly buying up land around the lake and its surroundings with the help of agents. The Atlanta Athletic Club (AAC) began searching for land to build a country house in 1902, and one of Candler’s agents persuaded him to buy 280 acres (1.1 km). 2 ). In 1904, the Atlanta Athletic Club opened. East Lake Golf Club. A line of streets from Atlanta through Kirkwood served the site. The pavilion was filmed at 1907 to make room for the first club. Construction of the first clubhouse and golf course was not completed until 1908. At that time golf was not the main entertainment. Lawn bowling, tennis, boating, and wading were all hobbies. East Lake was made a city in 1908. [1]

    In 1912, a highway was built from Ponce de Leon Avenue to the gates of the East Lake Country Club, making East Lake even more accessible. K 19In 16, a $10,000 school building was completed on Fourth Avenue, making East Lake an ideal suburban area. According to Atlanta Journal-Constitution article in May 1916, demand for houses in East Lake was “nearly booming”. In 1928, East Lake was annexed to the city of Atlanta.

    In 1926, Francis Marion Swanson moved to East Lake and bought a house at 246 Daniel Avenue, across from what is now East Lake Park. Mr. Swanson was the treasurer of the East Lake Land Company, which helped spur development in the East Lake area by providing mortgage and construction loans to homebuyers and builders. Mr. Swanson and his friends encouraged sports enthusiasts, many of whom were affiliated with Georgia Tech, to move to the area. The grounds of the Swanson home also contain the last of the remaining “lakeside cottages” that date back to the amusement park. This cottage was the guest house of the Swanson family, whose guests included well-known Atlanteans and Georgia tech figures such as football coaches Bill Alexander and Bobby Dodd, as well as renowned golfer Bobby Jones. Jones came in for the weekend and went out for the 9th fairway off Daniel Street to avoid the crowds.

    During the early to mid-twentieth century, the East Lake community flourished and centered around the Athletic Club. The community had swimming, tennis and football teams, as well as many experienced golfers. Across Alston Drive from the golf course was the Bachmann Farm, which kept horses pulled by mowers on the golf course. In the early 1950s, the land was donated to the city of Atlanta to be converted into what is now East Lake Park. Bachmann’s original farmhouse has been converted into a recreation center.

    AAC moved from Atlanta in 1966, selling properties in East Lake and downtown Atlanta and purchasing the current site in northern Fulton County (now Johns Creek). A new club soon acquired the property, founding what is now known as the East Lake Golf Club.

    The infamous public housing project took place in the 1970s. East Lake Meadows, was built on the former Second Course site in East Lake, west of Second Avenue. A wave of violent crime swept the development and the community saw an increase in crime as the quality of life and housing values ​​declined. At 19In 1995, a private group led by real estate developer and former resident Tom Cousins ​​partnered with the City of Atlanta to raze The Meadows and restore a new mixed-income development, East Lake Villages. Following the demolition of Meadows, crime began to decline rapidly, and a renaissance began in the community in the late 20th century.

    Inspired by an already active community association formed in 1975, residents protected and preserved the neighborhood through the tumultuous 1960s, 70s and 80s. As a result, at the end of 19In the 1990s, the area began to attract young city dwellers who eagerly bought charming homes and changed the neighborhood’s residential character, causing East Lake to experience a 230% property price boom.

    In 2005, East Lake Neighbors took over East Lake Park in partnership with Park Pride, completing the first community vision plan for the park with the organization. The purpose of the park group was to bring together neighbors in support of the restoration of the abandoned park. That same year, Friends of East Lake Park received a $100,000 donation from the Home Depot Foundation to build a new playground, shaded structures, walkways and benches, and extensive planting throughout the park and landscaping at East Lake Village Elementary School. on East Lake. Over 800 community volunteers and corporate partners from Home Depot, Coca-Cola and UPS built all of the improvements over a 6-hour period. Since then, Friends of East Lake Park has helped secure a grant to renovate and restore the recreation center. The park is the pride of the community, with newly renovated tennis courts and a minor league ball court, and is very heavily used on most weekends.

    In 2009, community members opened the East Lake Farmers’ Market (ELFMarket) at the empty commercial intersection of 2nd Avenue and Hosie L. Williams Drive. The market began as a means of fighting crime at an empty shopping intersection. ELFMarket has grown into a 501(c)-3 non-profit charity that aims to build community through food, organize charity chefs, offer fresh produce at discounted prices, partner with the local community to try to improve health outcomes, and unite neighborhood residents. Saturday morning from April to October each year. In 2012, Market partnered with the Southeastern Horticultural Society to build an urban raised-bed farm on the site of a former gas station.

    Several months of the year, the Yard of the Month award is presented on the lawn of the house. Shipyards nominate and vote on previous winners. [ citation needed ]

    summary

    Edgar Freemantle, 50, runs a construction company in Minnesota. During a preventive inspection, his car was hit by a construction crane. Edgar loses his right arm and suffers brain damage: he suffers partially from amnesia and aphasia. The temper tantrums he causes during his recovery terrorize his wife Pam so much that she files for divorce. Edgar thinks about suicide, but his psychiatrist then D d Kamen suggested that he change the situation and resume activities that had once interested paints. So Edgar settled on Duma Key, a nearly deserted island off the coast of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico. Edgar befriends former lawyer Wireman and an elderly woman with Alzheimer’s whom he takes care of, Elizabeth Eastlake, who owns the entire island. He also bonds with Jack Cantori, an apprentice he hired to help him.

    Edgar began to draw and paint with an all-consuming passion, and his daughter Ilse, impressed by his work, encouraged him to see his paintings in a local art gallery. The owners of this gallery are full of enthusiasm and agree with Edgar for the exhibition. But Edgar draws more and more in a daze and feels phantom sensations in his missing hand. The scenes he paints become increasingly disturbing and even have a reflection in the real world. The pink house he rented may have reinforced this connection to the paranormal. Stranger still, terrifying childhood M me Eastlake arises and comes to haunt him. During the exhibition, M me Eastlack is horrified by a series of paintings and warns Edgar of their danger. She was taken to the hospital and died soon after.

    Obsessed with a painting she bought from Edgar, the art critic kills Ilse before committing suicide. Edgar discovers during research that an evil entity connected to Elizabeth’s past, Persia, the Red Lady, is the source of these tragic events. Persia was neutralized (by immersion in fresh water) by Elizabeth when she was a child, but not without having previously caused several deaths among her relatives. As Persia brings her ship of the dead to the island, Edgar, Wireman, and Jack Cantori set out to find the figurine that holds the essence. Doom’s Key is now transformed by Persia’s forces, but the three men eventually achieve their goals. Edgar and Wireman then go to dip the figurine at the bottom of a lake in Minnesota. Wireman died two months later from a heart attack, and Edgar painted his last painting, depicting a storm destroying the Duma Key.

    Symbols

    The novel contains a large number of minor characters for a small circle of only main characters.

    Main characters

    • Edgar Fremantle : A character and narrator of a novel whose plot focuses on his new life after his accident, his internal struggles, and his struggle with Persia.
    • Jerome Wireman : Omaha former lawyer who moved to Florida after the death of his wife and daughter. He tried to commit suicide before being fired from the law firm. The aftermath he experiences after attempting suicide is also at the heart of the plot. His lines are often delicious, with a mixture of Spanish aphorisms and expressions.
    • Elizabeth Eastlake : A wealthy heiress and former patron who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, she plays an important role in the plot helping the protagonists stop the evil force present on Ki-Dum.
    • Pam Fremantle : Edgar’s wife, she divorces early in the novel, no longer supportive of her husband after the accident. Their relationship improves over the course of the novel, and then definitively deteriorates after Ilsa’s death.
    • Ilse Fremantle : The youngest daughter of Edgar and Pam, she remains the only person in Edgar’s “old life” who stayed by his side. The novel emphasizes that Edgar favors Ilse over his eldest daughter Melinda.
    • Jack Cantori : A young student Edgar uses him as a driver and handyman. His quick wit allows Persia to be trapped at the end of the novel.
    • Persia : An evil force that manifests on Dumsky Key, initially shown to be protecting the young Elizabeth Eastlake in order to be able to rise to the surface of the ocean before the latter imprisons her in fresh water, rendering her helpless until Edgar arrives. . She commands an undead ship, and while not human, she is described as having feminine attributes, taking the form of an old porcelain figurine clad in a red cloak and adorned with hook-shaped hands. She falls asleep again at the end of the novel, although Edgar fears that she will wake up in the future. Her full name, Persephone, refers to the Greek goddess of the same name, queen of the underworld (although, like many other entities in King, she is also Lovecraftian by inspiration). The ship is a ghost from Persia, at Persephone , similar to Caleuche , a ghost ship drawn from the Chilot legends.

    Secondary characters

    There are many minor characters in the novel, some of whom have only a vague relationship with the main characters or with the plot, including relatives from Edgar’s former life, as well as from Edgar’s life. tourist season. These include Tom Riley, Edgar’s former superintendent; Mary Ere, art critic; Melinda Fremantle, Edgar’s eldest daughter; John Eastlake, Elizabeth’s father; Nan Melda, young Elizabeth’s nurse; D d Kamen, psychiatrist Edgar; and Dario Nannuzzi, manager of the Sarasota Art Gallery.

    Paintings

    Some of Edgar’s paintings play an important role in the plot and are described in great detail, both at the time of their composition and in their final state, beginning with Edgar’s very first drawing entitled Hello , depicting a boat at sunset . However, he quickly realizes that all of his sunset paintings are nowhere near as friendly.

    Although Edgar worked slowly at first, he gradually mastered the technique of how to replicate the surreal style of his first drawing by adding objects to the background of sunsets, beginning with his Seashell Sunset . Big Pink , the house he rents from Elizabeth Eastlake, is actually famous in the novel for being the home of Salvador Dali, a symbol of Surrealism.

    Reception and distinction

    Roman spent nine weeks (including one in No. 1) at on the New York Times bestseller list , appearing straight at No. 1 on .

    It was fairly well received by critics. Janet Maslin of New York Times recalls a story written with patience and rigor that takes a diabolical turn in its last third. Mark Runer of Seattle Times thinks the story takes a long time to fall into place and lacks originality (we find similar themes in The Dead Zone and Dreamcatcher ), but that the characters are well known, and that it remains a sad and horrifying story of the truth of the art and its cost. Erica Noonan of Boston Globe talks about a long-awaited return to the writer’s favorite themes and a novel that’s full of emotion and surprise. Sabrina Champenois of Liberation evokes a romance in which King “sovereignly takes all his time and all his pleasure” and “also links a beautiful story of friendship between three men”.

    Key’s Thought won the 2008 Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel.

    Intertextuality

    • In the sixteenth part of the novel, entitled “Finale”, Edgar’s daughter Ilse wonders if the H. P. Lovecraft stories she read in high school are the cause of her anxiety. A discreet homage to one of Stephen King’s favorite authors, especially given that Ilsa resides in Providence, Lovecraft’s hometown, often referred to by periphrasians as “Providence’s hermit”.
    • Edgar Fremantle shares his name with Abigael Fremantle, a character from King’s previous novel, Le Fléau .
    • The description of Persia is similar to the description of the Crimson King from cycle of the Dark Tower .
    • Elizabeth Eastlake’s novelty doll is in a “heart-shaped box”. Joe Hill, Stephen King’s son, wrote a novel under this title ( The Heart-Shaped Box , Le Costume du mort in French translation).
    • When Edgar realizes that his paintings could harm his family, he calls Tom Riley and asks him to burn the painting he bought. But Tom, his voice recorded on the answering machine, says that “death is better” and that he was ordered to kill Pam. We often find the expression “death is preferable” in King’s previous novel Simetiera .
    • When Edgar realizes that his painting is dangerous, he calls his daughter Ilse in Rhode Island. She then claims that Persia spoke to her through the sink and toilet. Flu-Saw , an evil entity present in the novel It , uses the same means to communicate with its future victims.
    • Red color plays a big role in Edgar’s painting, sometimes even revealing his evil origin. In King’s work, especially in cycle The Dark Tower Evil is often associated with red.
    • The evil creature enclosed in the cymbal-beating monkey toy in the story “The Monkey King” from Bruma’s collection is also neutralized by immersion in fresh water.

    Read The Declassified Kingdom online. Seamstress Enchantress”, Rovenna Miller – LitRes, page 5

    8

    I have lived in the city for more than ten years, but have never been on campus. I didn’t have to go there. I was not interested in the sciences that were studied there: philosophy, physics, theology. None of these disciplines inspired any enthusiasm in people like me. Seamstresses themselves evaluated the seams of assistants to test their skills, and sorceresses studied in their families – usually from their mothers. The former was considered a respected trade that could put it on par with other shopkeepers, while the latter was an ancient handicraft industry that was shunned by all but the Pellian immigrants. The same traded spells along with sesame oil, hot peppers and poppy seeds, which served as a seasoning for their favorite dishes. The university had different rules. Here they taught theory, mathematics and other sciences without practical application, which I could hardly imagine.

    Perhaps Christos could become a scientist and be accepted by a more open system. The kind of oratory that attracted sympathy for his fiery arguments in taverns would have made him an excellent lecturer. The single-minded commitment that made my brother the leader of the League could serve him well in research and teaching. But he would never have become a good businessman, because he did not have diligence and self-control.

    Christos tugged at my hand and generally behaved impatiently, demanding that I quickly finish my sausage on a stick. It turned out to be very tasty, as he promised, it seemed that the onion flavor came directly from the porous skin of the sausage.

    – I enjoy food, not crush it like a yard dog. We shouldn’t act like street rogues ready to run from the garbage heap when they’re caught red-handed.

    “No more,” I added silently, thinking of the very difficult winter after my mother’s death.

    “We’re late,” he said, glancing at the Stone Castle’s clock tower, which was visible above the tiled roofs of the houses.

    – I didn’t know that we were on a strict schedule.

    I have the last sausage left.

    – Later he gives a lecture.

    – Then why…

    The question hung in the air. Doesn’t matter. If this professor doesn’t intend to keep me all evening, I’ll get back to the shop in time and do some work.

    – Wenko… Is he from Quiset? His surname sounds in Quisetian.

    I didn’t know how many people crossed our northern border. According to survey reports, the isolated living of the Kwais behind the high mountain peaks somehow influenced their closed and religious culture. Only a few quaiss – apart from diplomats from patrician families and delegates from merchant guilds – lived in Galatia. Ordinary people from Quiset did not come to us – there was not a single Quiset district in the city like the Pellian quarter. This people was considered very distrustful and often hostile to charms.

    – More likely from the Kweiss family. But most of his life he lives in our city. Don’t think of him as a Quiset monk. He doesn’t even have an accent. You might think that would explain everything. – Are you finished? Finally…

    I let him lead me, and we passed through the white stone gates of the university. The first campus burned down a century ago. All new buildings were built from cream and white limestone. Half of the books from the library were housed in an archive near Fountain Square so that another fire could not destroy the entire university collection at once.

    Another result of past troubles was the appearance of the university – now it looked like a beautiful white city. The buildings were built in the antique style, in the spirit of the ancient universities of Seraph. However, they were smaller in height and neatly placed on the territory interspersed with flower beds and pruned trees. The bas-reliefs on the buildings indicated their purpose, for example, the tree of life, on the branches of which animals of all kinds and forms roamed, was intended for the Department of Biology. I smiled looking at a beautiful scroll hanging on the wall of a building. The names of all the famous philosophers were guessed on it.

    – Here we are! Christos said as he turned off the wide main avenue onto a gravel path that led to several similar buildings.

    “Humanities,” he explained.

    – I did not expect that magic would be studied in the buildings of the Faculty of Physics.

    “He is not a magician,” Christos replied with a sigh. – More precisely, the professor studies not only magic. Officially, he is a specialist in antiquity.

    – What?

    “Antiquity,” the brother repeated, opening the gate of a garden planted with boxwood. – Ancient languages ​​and cultures. Including ancient Pellia.

    Maybe I should have been impressed that some people were studying the written history of our homeland, but none of that concerned me. I was not a true Pellian, although my bronze skin and tall figure made me one for all Galatians. I never saw Pellia and never spoke her language. The only Pellian thing about me was the ability to cast spells. This is what explained the interest of the professor. If Venko studied ancient Pellia, he could not do without charms from ancient times. But then he would have been better off asking the real Pellians about them, not me.

    – Christos!

    A tall man dressed in a modest but tailored black suit rose from the bench to greet me. He looked the way I, as a baby, imagined a noble nobleman – majestic, with serious blue eyes and a long straight nose. He also treated me in a way that made me feel like a little girl.

    – This is probably your sister. I am Piord Venko, professor of antiquity. And I have a great interest in your abilities.

    Christos was right – no accent. Venko looked more like a Galatian than my brother and I. However, he was betrayed by the wide cheekbones and icy pale eyes for which quaisses are known. Perhaps it was the coldness of his pupils, or the frosty wind blowing through the garden, but I shivered in my cloak.

    “I’m terribly sorry,” he said, noticing my shoulders were trembling. – I’m just a junior lecturer, and I have to share an office with another person. And I would like to keep this conversation a secret.

    I pouted my lips. Christos said that this man’s interest was professional, and he wanted to drag me into a conversation about protests and revolution? Or, even worse, force me to act during demonstrations? I already made a few enchanted hats for them. I wanted to apologize and leave, but Christos pushed me forward.

    – We understand everything, professor. Really, Sophie? You never told your mom that the clients like your, well, services .

    I blushed, glad that we were alone in the garden. My eyes looked at my brother, conveying a silent message: I’m not a prostitute, idiot .

    – For similar reasons, I am not ready to discuss this topic in front of my colleagues. At least I won’t do it again. Pierre sighed. “I’m sure I don’t need to remind you, Miss Bulstrad, that sorcery is not recognized as an art. Please don’t take it as an insult.

    – I know the scientific opinion. – At his invitation, I sank down on the bench and turned to face him. “I combined sorcery with fashion. This is what I get paid for. And I did not expect that someone at the university would show interest in my magic.

    – Of course, we didn’t expect it. Nobody knows about what I discovered. Let me rephrase… What I found Pellian sorceresses like you discovered centuries ago.

    “There is almost nothing to talk about,” I said.

    He was thirsty for knowledge. Cold excitement shone in the professor’s eyes. I didn’t want to disappoint him.

    – This is about good luck charms, not fairy tales where you can conjure anything out of thin air or turn stone into gold.

    “So we’re going to talk about good luck charms,” ​​he stated. – And curses.

    The professor must have seen my look, because he immediately left this topic.

    – I believe that there must be something grand in magic. I believe the ancient Pellians found something more than just good luck charms.

    – Then why didn’t they develop their art? “Despite myself, I was a little intrigued. “Pellia… You know very well what people think of Pellia. Swamp. If our ancient ancestors found some great magical knowledge, then why didn’t they manage to develop it?

    – Not very polite to your native country. He laughed, and I was offended. “It’s okay, I’m not a perfect Quiset citizen either.” So, we settled on the fact that they began to study magic. After seven years of drought, the invasion of the Equatorile States followed. The conquerors united the archipelago and invented black powder. After that, the Pellians stopped writing manuscripts about magic. They stopped studying it because they were starving. And since then, their knowledge has not developed.

    “Very interesting,” I said. How did he know all this?

    – I assume you studied with your mother? he suddenly asked.

    – Yes. Almost all of us do this.

    – You became a seamstress, right? So she showed you how to enchant ordinary sewing?

    – Yes, but I combined it with fashionable clothes. At first I made thread buttons and sold them, then I began to explore other possibilities of sorcery. One led to another. Over time, I became a seamstress assistant and realized that I could cast spells while sewing. This innovation brought me extra money.

    “Awesome,” said Professor Wenko, and I realized that he wasn’t talking about modeling. – I have never seen such flexibility in the art of sorcery in practice. Charming. Can you… I mean, could you demonstrate it?

    I blushed. Enchanting was a private affair, not a display art. I had a bag with threads, needles and scissors. There was also my favorite sweet wax to soften the threads. I reluctantly pulled out my purse.

    “Unfortunately, I don’t have any cloth with me,” I said, hoping that this would be the end of it.

    “Take it,” he said, pulling a handkerchief from his raincoat pocket.

    I was overcome by doubts. Christos nodded encouragingly.

    I threaded the needle. My hands were trembling a little. I don’t like being watched while sewing. Being the center of attention is always awkward, but when I show my skills, it’s doubly uncomfortable. I made a few initial stitches, weaving in sorcery as inconspicuously as possible. I managed to turn the flickering light around my hands into a few inches of enchanted luck. I bit off the end of the thread and returned the handkerchief to the professor.

    – What is it?

    – As you asked, I put enchanted stitches on the item.

    – No, I mean the process. No singing, no spells, just sewing.

    – True, the mother said that singing helps some sorceresses to concentrate, but in her opinion, it is better to learn to sew without it. I agreed with her.

    – Charming. Simple and tasteful.

    “If you don’t mind my asking…” I said, hoping it didn’t sound too rude. “There are no sorcerers in Quiset.

    He nodded.

    – Actually, no, but sorcery is considered illegal among us. Confessors banned it, and the Church has almost replaced the state with itself.

    Christos, who understands the differences in political systems more than I do, nodded in agreement. I knew that religion was more influential in Quiset than in Galatia, where local parishes and even the great cathedral in Fountain Square, preaching a vague concept of Galatian divinity, were social centers rather than mighty pillars of religion.

    – I came to Galatia with my family – at a young age, one might say. I’ve never met a charm before. But one day I was walking through the Pellian quarter and saw a woman selling her goods. It so happened that I had just begun to study the ancient Pellian language and found among the manuscripts a theoretical treatise on sorcery. It’s incredible that this theory hasn’t been fully explored yet. I think that a fuller understanding of the Pellian theory of magic can change our religious and political views.

    “Professor Venko is working on a complete translation of Pellian theoretical texts,” Christos interjected.

    – I guarantee the quality. He turned back to me. “When my family returned to Quiset, I tried to continue my research, but the Quiset universities turned out to be nothing more than theological seminaries. I couldn’t do my research and quickly got blacklisted by my observers.

    A gloomy shadow slid over his face, transforming him in a frightening way for a moment.

    “Quiseth is mired in academic rigidity,” he added. “That’s why I came back here, even though here the university system encourages only noble people. I cannot go beyond the current status. I can’t even petition for promising students.

    He looked at Christos.

    “Well, even those of us who couldn’t go to university are grateful for your public lectures,” the brother said, blushing. – The professor even attracted some of his colleagues to speak. Sophie, you sometimes come to them too. Perhaps one day Piord Venko will give a lecture on sorcery.

    – Even my most condescending colleagues will find this topic unworthy of the general public. They will forbid giving such a lecture. Venko laughed. – Given the increased activity of the League, I am afraid that public lectures will be temporarily suspended.

    Christos nodded.

    “You’ve done so much already,” he said in a tone that I would have considered too much gratitude for a few free lectures. He probably wasn’t talking about lectures, but about Venko’s participation in the affairs of the League.

    The professor leaned towards Christos and lowered his tone.

    – Many of my colleagues are overly loyal to the king. Even those who do not have noble blood in them. They get… uncomfortable with so many red caps they see in the audience. They refused to take part in lectures. And it’s better for me not to stand out by spending them alone.

    The ringing bell sounded on the campus.

    “I should be in the audience in fifteen minutes,” said the professor. “Tell me, Miss Balstrad, are you the one making caps for your brother and his comrades?”

    “Yes, I am,” I replied.

    I didn’t understand what he was getting at. There was a twinkle in his eyes that I didn’t like.

    – And for this, each participant in the movement is already grateful to you. – He went on the attack. Would you like to do something more for us?

    I didn’t want to, that’s for sure.

    – Christos asked me to make more hats.

    – Very good. We appreciate your work. But I’m thinking of something else… It’s all so confusing… I’d like to test some of the theories that are spoken about in the ancient Pellian texts.

    – I’m afraid I won’t be able to work for you at the moment.

    A stern and firm answer. I made caps with protective charms, wanting to protect my brother and his friends. I didn’t want to see them hurt. But I was not going to take on their other cases.

    – I hope you understand the importance of managing my business, which is the main source of income for our family.

    Pjord Venko’s eyes narrowed as if the sun had gone behind a cloud, but he quickly regained his composure.

    – Of course. I understand you. He stood up and said goodbye with a bow. “Christos, thank you for letting me meet your beautiful sister.

    We also said goodbye. Christos looked upset as we walked out of the high white gate.

    – What happened?

    – I know you’re busy. And I understand that our movement does not inspire you as much as it does me, although it is not clear why.

    He ran his fingers through his thick hair, Pellian black and glossy, full of waves and troughs, like mine.

    – Damn it, Sophie! You have a gift. I just want you to use it for something more important.

    My first impulse was to argue with him, but that wouldn’t help. In the golden light of the winter evening, he looked so beautiful and sincere, so strange and alien to me, brave and brave – like a hero from a fairy tale. This I could not deny. Taking his arm, I leaned my head against his shoulder.

    – I know, Christos. I know.

    9

    “Since you left yesterday, we’ve received two new orders,” Alice said as I looked at our plan board. – Do you recognize the names?

    – An enchanted mantilla for Sanna… Eastlake? Is that Lady Eastlake?

    “She is the best,” Alice replied with a smile.

    The Eastlakes were not considered the main noble house, but there were rumors that the lord and his wife, a seraphic minor princess, were rising in rank. The king approved Eastlake for the position of Lord of the Stones – in view of the fact that the old Lord Suthermont was about to leave this position.

    – And we were also ordered a ball gown with a charm of love. The request came from the merchant’s daughter.

    – Ball gown? It’s a lot of work. Is she coming to the fitting?

    “Of course,” Alice replied. She has already chosen green. I showed her the samples instead of you. She paused a little. I hope I did the right thing.

    I liked Alice’s initiative.

    Yes, thank you. If only she could wear green. It doesn’t suit everyone.

    I laughed, satisfied that the order board was full.

    “This one can,” said Alice confidently. – And Penny will be later.

    I raised my eyebrows.

    – I hope she has a good reason?

    It was hoped that Christos would somehow influence her lateness.

    Alice shrugged her round shoulders.

    – She said her mother needed treatment.

    – You don’t think so, do you? I asked.

    The girl pursed her lips.

    – I don’t want to gossip. But they had a serious fight. She coughed. Because of Christos.

    I was a good sister – I immediately wanted to protect my brother. I tried to answer as calmly as possible:

    – Many Galatians do not support their children when they start dating Pellians.

    Alice tilted her head to one side.

    “That’s not the case,” she said. “I mean, yes…many people don’t visit the Pellian quarter. But you don’t. ..

    She blushed and moved to the other end of the counter to clear a small stack of papers.

    – The Workers’ League is to blame here. Her mother doesn’t want Penny to get involved with them.

    – And he does it right.

    For some reason, I didn’t want to be associated with them either.

    – Excuse me, ma’am. Perhaps my words offended you.

    The blush on her broad face blazed even brighter.

    “I’m fine with the Pellian quarter,” she added.

    – Don’t apologize, Alice. – Picking up the wrapped order, I quietly asked: – You said I didn’t … I didn’t – what?

    She bit her lip.

    – I don’t consider you a Pellian. And the Pellian Quarter… it’s a lot like the rest of the city.

    I nodded. No wonder she thought so. I created this image myself. A high-class Galatian seamstress, not a Pellian market trader. And yet her words caused me some discomfort.

    – I wonder what you know about Pellians? I asked with curiosity.

    – They keep to themselves, dress a little differently, wear headscarves instead of hats. Alice shrugged. “I don’t want anything from the Pellian quarter, and they don’t want anything from me, so we rarely see each other.

    Alice’s pragmatism was her best trait, I reminded myself with a small smile. But her opinion was rather superficial: Pellians are people who keep to themselves, speak a different language, and think that spinach pie is quite good for lunch. Christos and I seemed to be part of a different group. We were more like the children of the provincial Galatians who moved to the capital – not local, but adapted people.

    I left Alice after giving her a few tasks and left as promised for Christos’ demonstration. Fountain Square looked quiet. I knew this place like the back of my hand. Fridays were considered market days. In the mornings and evenings, the services of the Galatian naturalists were held in the cathedral. Sometimes entertainment or small fairs were organized on the square. I always went to the Silk Fair, where merchants from all over Galatia and its environs brought fine silks, cottons and wools, fabrics that I could not buy even from the best merchants of the city for most of the year.

    I’ve always been able to get a few rolls of silk that no one has looked at yet. I went around all the stalls for two years, and rumors finally spread around the fair that it was not just a seamstress who was looking at the sellers. The seraph silk merchants considered me a sorceress, similar to the witches of their royal court. They bargained with me with great respect and always gave me a considerable discount. The Quiset wool-spinning family called me a witch behind my back and prayed to all the saints as I passed by. One thin as a thread, a woman from the mountains, who was in charge of a workshop for the production of cotton of the highest quality, was convinced that I was a fairy. In general, some merchants refused to serve me, while others offered tempting deals in low voices – their best fabrics, hidden for sale in royal houses. Whole rolls at half price. Party from their personal stocks.

    I selected merchants whose fabrics were unique, beautiful, and of high quality, and made deals with them. Someone asked for a healing spell for rheumatism, another for a love charm for a modest daughter. For many, trade in Galatia was their only access to charms, but they could not negotiate with the Pellians, who used neither silk nor expensive cotton. I was considered one of the few sorceresses who helped them in the Galatian cities. In some countries, magic was not allowed at all, whether they believed in charms or not. Witchcraft went against their religious and moral codes. On the harsh island of Fen, magic, illusions, and even card tricks were considered illegal. No one had ever heard of the sorcerers of Quiset, where, it was said, only the snowdrifts of winter were deeper than faith in saints. I was happy to fulfill the orders of merchants, working late at night on scarves, hats and shawls. And then they dismantled their tents and left for their native countries.

    Since my spell worked, I always had loyal allies in the market.

    It’s only a few months until the next Silk Fair, I thought as I walked across the cold stones of the square. People bustled around, hurrying to shop, hurrying from the mills to the west and from the river docks to their homes in the east. It is unlikely that anyone planned to linger on the square today.

    A crowd of people has gathered in front of the church. Many of them waved flags. And they all wore red caps. Christos demonstration.

    I crouched near the huge bronze fountain in the center of the square, deciding whether to let my brother know with a quiet hello or just go home. Christos insisted that I watch his performance, and yes, he got my consent. However, I didn’t want to be seen. Simply ignoring him would offend him, because he was trying to make me a participant in his protest. Doesn’t he understand that our life largely depends on my good relations with the nobility – those people whom he now accused?

    I thought with a sad smile of Lady Viola’s friends talking about Melchoir in the salon. Christos would never have believed that noble ladies could discuss the same topics that he argued about.

    For a few seconds, I considered what was happening as if it were clothes that I had to take apart to prepare patterns. A woman in a brown cloak pushed pamphlets to passers-by, whether they wanted it or not. I recognized her from Walnut Valley. She was a washerwoman with a reddish face, her scarred hands rapidly handing out pamphlets to the small crowd that was already gathering around the League members.

    It was not only the washerwoman who persuaded her compatriots to join her. Two women, including a tall Pellian girl, waved makeshift flags and called out to people as they passed through the square. The rest of the group was much larger than I expected. All of them were workers – young guys with a chest of a wheel; men and old men who dragged years of work on their bent backs; local citizens; blond Galatian provincials from the north; brown-eyed peasants from the south; the Pellians and another person who might have been a Quiss. It looked as if some wind that had run through the warehouses and docks had brought the workers here. Approximately half of the men wore red caps similar to the ones I made for Christos. A golden glow on one of the hats worn by a man I did not know confirmed that among the demonstrators they were distributed at random. Even without their caps, they all looked dressed in their peculiar uniforms, soiled coarse clothes that clearly weren’t “best of the market”: shirts tucked into trousers and woolen jackets in need of mending.

    The only exception was a man in a black suit who stood behind the crowd and spoke quietly to Niko. Piord Venko looked almost comical and out of place next to the rude demonstrators. He spoke to Niko with the disdain that a shop owner treats his assistant. A kind of podium – a loose pile of boxes – imitated a pulpit that was already occupied. My brother.

    “For the sake of everything in the world…” I whispered.

    He was standing on the box, gesticulating wildly and uttering words that I couldn’t hear as they were carried away by the wind. I rolled my eyes. Christos looked like one of those preachers who, on market days, would sometimes set up boxes at the edge of the square—violent, passionate, and, I thought, ridiculous.

    Then I saw the soldiers.

    They entered the square from a small side street that ran next to the church. A short woman in a faded green dress was pointing at the demonstrators from around the corner, and although my brother and his friends acted like idiots, at that moment I hated her more than anyone in the world. She complained about the noise. She led the soldiers to the square… And since they were supposed to arrest the instigators, I realized that my brother would spend the night in the prison cell of the Stone Castle.

    I didn’t know what to say or do, so I ran across the square. Christos saw me before the soldier. Rows of pale blue cloaks had not yet emerged from the shadows between the tall buildings, and I was like a parrot in my brightly colored gloves and cape. He waved his hand and, to my relief, climbed down from the box.

    – Sophie! The brother spread his arms wide. – Isn’t it great? We handed out over a hundred pamphlets and…

    He broke off when he saw the soldiers. Their captain got into a fight with a guy who looked like a squirrel. He was waving a large poster with several spelling mistakes.

    I heard the captain’s voice boom, talking about the limit on permitted gatherings. Of course, the office of the Lord of the Stones approved of any city meetings, although it seemed to me that Christos and his demonstrators did not submit any petitions. In general, I was sure that they did not do this on purpose, knowing full well that a bunch of Red Caps opposing the nobility would be banned.

    – Without permission? the captain shouted. “You will all be arrested immediately!”

    He grabbed the flag closest to him and broke the wooden pole on his knee. I did not understand him – do not give them unnecessary reasons for anger; not now. Christos and his comrades would have left on their own. I knew it.

    The soldiers shifted their ranks and began to advance slowly, as if against an ocean wave. They formed a line of attack and raised their muskets. Their faces looked determined and impassive. The crowd behind me no longer waved their hands. I took a few steps and found myself ahead of everyone, like a fish in the ocean foam, unable to swim against the current.

    – What are we going to do next? someone shouted in a gloomy voice.

    I had to move along with the crowd of demonstrators when they went to the soldiers. Any of my objections would be no louder than a squeak. I realized that a burly man and a stocky woman who were walking beside me had lifted bricks and stones. Then I saw how Jack persuaded the people closest to him to lower the banners and stones. Niko shouted some hurtful words at the captain. Piord Venko was nowhere to be seen.

    I was floundering in the crowd, trying to get out of their ranks. I needed to find Christos. I would have been safe with him, as he was with me.

    Christos climbed onto the crate platform again. My throat tightened – oh no! He led this protest – and became a target for shooters.

    – Please! my brother called out in the same confident voice. Don’t answer violence with violence! We must demonstrate peaceful methods if we want to convince the soldiers…

    A brick thrown by someone in the crowd flew past me and hit a soldier in the head. He fell to the ground like a sack of flour. I heard a scream and suddenly realized that it was my voice.

    – Stop! I screamed, begging each and every one to hear me. – Stop!

    The same words echoed from the captain, only with icy calm.

    The crowd around me screamed louder. And then the captain made the nearest soldier raise his musket and take aim. Straight to Christos.

    My breathing quickened, and my mind stopped perceiving anything but this musket aimed at Christos. I swear even my heart stopped. The crowd around fell silent.

    The brother did not move, but it was determination, not fear. He squared his shoulders. The soldier pulled the trigger…

    And nothing.

    The crowd ran, dispersing in all directions. The soldier raised the musket in surprise for inspection. Obviously, the weapon was damp and misfired. I fell to my knees. Strange sounds, like a cat’s meow, sounded from somewhere below.

    The captain waved his hand and the soldiers left the square. Someone helped the soldier who was knocked down by a brick, and he hobbled after his comrades. Christos jumped off the platform and grabbed me in his arms.

    – Let me take you home.

    That was all he said.

    This border region between Vermont and New York was clearly not controlled by either state for a long time. New Englanders settled here, hoping to gain New England advantages in areas such as land ownership and the right to vote. The first settlers arrived before 1770, but the state line was not established until 1790, leaving the settlers in that city within the state of New York.

    The city was founded in 1780.

    Early agricultural efforts included dairy farming and sheep farming.

    Extensive shale deposits were discovered in 1846 at Fair Haven, and in 1850 more shale deposits were discovered at Middle Granville. The first slate quarries in Granville opened around 1853. The first slate deposits were discovered in 1839 and used for local construction.

      Atlanta Housing Authority – Wikipedia

      10003 Atlanta Housing Authority (AHA ) is an agency that provides affordable housing for low-income families in Atlanta. Today, AHA is the largest housing agency in Georgia and one of the largest in the US, serving approximately 50,000 people. [2]

      The AHA was founded in 1938 to take the place of the Public Works Administration (PWA). Due to lobbying by Charles Palmer, a real estate developer in Atlanta, Atlanta was the site of the first public housing project in the country at 1936 year. Techwood Homes. Early public housing projects, such as Techwood and its sister project University Homes, were built for working-class families in former slums. Charles Palmer became the AHA’s first chairman, and under his leadership and his successors, the agency continued to clear slums and build community housing estates. The first phase of construction lasted from 1938 to 1941 and was funded by the Wagner-Steagall Act. The second phase was from 1951 to 1956 using grants allocated by Housing Act 1949. The final phase took place in 1962-1973, after which only a few small projects were completed. During the 70s and 80s the AHA came under increasing criticism, for example from Great Speckled Bird, for its management of its facilities as violence and physical deterioration began to escalate. When Atlanta won its bid to host the 1996 Olympics, city officials became concerned that public housing estates would cause international embarrassment. Under the chairmanship of Rene Glover, the AHA won Federal HOPE VI funding for the demolition of many public housing estates, including Techwood. After the Olympics, Atlanta’s public housing demolition campaign continued, and by 2011, all traditional-style houses had been demolished or sold to private individuals. The AHA currently provides six basic housing services, primarily housing vouchers and mixed income housing developments. [2]

      History

      Background

      Early 20th Century Atlanta Housing for the Poor: The Bottom of Tanyard a.k.a. Tech Flats, Centennial Place site today

      The Atlanta public housing movement began in the early 1930s. Charles Palmer, a conservative real estate developer, was concerned about the threat to property values ​​posed by the slums located so close to the city center. [3] Similar concerns were expressed among the African American elite, who disliked the physical proximity of Atlanta University to the slum known as Beaver Hill. [4] Palmer made several trips to European countries to study their public housing programs and actively lobbied Washington to start building public housing in the United States. [5] Despite his opposition to the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, [3] it was only with the establishment of the Public Works Administration (PWA) in 1933 that Palmer was able to gain approval for a public housing project to be built at Techwood Flats. [6]

      Early 20th century Atlanta housing for the poor: Beaver Hill near Atlanta University

      Techwood Flats is a mixed community located between Georgia Tech and downtown Atlanta, with buildings that often had no running water or electricity . [4] Charles Palmer claimed that he chose Techwood Flats specifically because it lay on the route from northwest Atlanta to downtown. [5] At the time, slum clearance was seen as inevitably linked to public housing, even though public housing was not intended for the poor. Rather, public housing was intended to provide temporary relief to middle- or working-class families affected by the depression. Thus, when the Techwood Homes Public Housing Project was completed at 1936, few residents of the former slums were able to return to it. [4] Moreover, the old community was racially mixed, while the new public housing was all white. This set a precedent for the use of public housing in Atlanta to shape the racial and economic makeup of communities in areas of interest to the elite.

      Techwood Homes, late 1930s

      Techwood Homes was not only the first public housing project in Atlanta, but also the first permanent public housing project in the United States. [6] He received national acclaim, and in 1935 FDR gave a speech on the project. [7] After Techwood Homes, the second housing project in Atlanta will be University Homes, designed for African Americans and built on the demolished Beaver Slide. Even more so than in the case of Techwood, residents of this project have shown a dramatic increase in income in the area. Whereas the previous community consisted mostly of unskilled workers, university houses were home to the black middle class or even the upper middle class. [4] Although touted by John Hope (President of Atlanta University) and other black elites as a victory for the black community, it was symbolic of the desire of those same elites to separate themselves from the black poor. It also represents part of a serious gap between the goals of the black elite and the middle class and those of the black poor. [4]

      Founding and Antebellum

      Before 1937, all public housing in the United States was under the control of the PWA housing department. With the passage of the Wagner-Steagall Act, it was moved to the newly created United States Housing Authority (USHA) under the Department of the Interior. At the same time, much of the administration was decentralized to local housing authorities. The Board of Aldermen created the Atlanta Housing Authority. It would be overseen by a five-member board of commissioners appointed by the mayor, but would otherwise be politically independent from the city. The Council of Elders granted the AHA the power to exempt the area from taxes and taxes, and later delegated to it the task of overseeing the renewal of the city. [8] Charles Palmer was elected as the first Chairman of the Board of Commissioners in 1938 and would remain in office until 1940. [3]

      In the early days of the AHA, public housing was closely linked to slum clearance. This was emphasized by the US Secretary of the Interior. Harold Ickes, who saw slum clearance as a positive boon, whether or not apartments were replaced by public housing. [4] However, it was taken for granted at the time that new housing was needed. Also during this period, public housing was seen as a tool to transform the working class into model citizens. In Atlanta, as elsewhere, tenants were carefully selected to fit in with middle-class values ​​(no single mothers, for example). [9] [10] This resulted in communities that were largely homogeneous, mostly young couples with children. [11] Only in the post-war era will public housing begin to serve lower-class families, and only gradually will it become associated with the poorest of the poor.

      After its formation in 1938, the AHA immediately began applying to Washington for funds to build new housing. During the three years leading up to the war, six new housing projects would be completed. For whites, there were Capitol Homes and Clark Howell Homes. For African Americans, the AHA built Herndon Houses, John Hope Houses, John Egan Houses, and Harris Houses. [3] This amounted to 4,000 housing units housing 20,000 people. [12] At that time, the total investment was $21 million. City historian Franklin Garrett humorously remarked, “By 1940, federal funds had built significantly more housing in Atlanta than Federal Representative William T. Sherman destroyed here in 1864,” referring to the Union general who ordered the burning of Atlanta. [13 ] New public housing construction in Atlanta (unlike other cities) has been suspended due to the outbreak of the war.The next complex will not be built until 1951 years old. [3]

      Post-war era

      Slum clearance and public housing construction continued until 1956. By the end of that year, 516.8 acres of slums had been cleared and 12 housing projects had been built. [13] Excluding Harris Homes, which was completed in 1956, over 27,000 people lived in the Atlanta Public Housing (25,000 built). The AHA announced that Harris Homes will be its “last low-rent project” as it refocuses its efforts on urban redevelopment to replace public housing. [13] This shift was the separation of slum clearance (or urban renewal) from public housing. It was no longer seen as a necessity to replace cleared areas with new dwellings. From 1956 to 1966, highway construction and other urban renewal projects displaced almost 67,000 people, mostly blacks. [14] Only 11% of displaced persons will be relocated to public housing. [15]

      The final stage of housing construction began at 1962 with the approval of funds for construction. Bowen Homes. This was completed in 1964, followed by projects such as Antoine Graves, Bank Courts, and East Lake Meadows, among others. In general, these projects were larger and of poorer quality than those built before 1956. [16] [17] These projects were among the last public facilities to be desegregated; this happened only in 1968. Whites were already leaving the projects and the city, but integration prompted virtually all remaining whites to leave the projects. [15] Other projects continued to be built in the 1970s, as well as several high rises for the elderly, but after 1973 construction largely ceased.

      1970s to 1996 Olympics

      Roosevelt House demolition, 2011

      By 1973, the political consensus that supported public housing in Atlanta had collapsed. Criticism from the left, such as from the underground newspaper Big Speckled Bird, has focused on poor construction of recent projects and lack of funding for basic maintenance. [3] The “moderate” coalition of businessmen and the wealthy elite that dominated Atlanta politics realized that they could continue clearing slums and renovating cities without having to build adequate new housing. And when Maynard Jackson, Atlanta’s first black mayor, was elected by a coalition of blacks and progressive whites, he went on a tour of the city’s public housing, focusing on their deteriorating conditions. [18] With the increase in crime throughout the city and several high-profile crime stories In connection with these projects, the population of Atlantis began to consider public housing as a new version of the slums. In particular, East Lake Meadows became known as “Little Vietnam” due to the high number of shooting deaths. [16]

      In 1990, Atlanta was selected to host the 1996 Summer Olympics. This caused many city leaders to become concerned about the state of public housing in the city at a time when HUD named the AHA one of the worst housing authorities in the country. [15] At the national level, concerns about the state of public housing prompted Congress to allocate funds for HOPE VI, a program aimed at revitalizing the public housing stock. [19] In 1993, Atlanta won the first HOPE VI grant to renovate and renovate Techwood and Clark Howell homes. At first, the idea of ​​replacing public housing with mixed-income housing was not considered, and the entire project was to remain public housing. Integral Group and McCormack Baron Salazar won a contract together in 1994 to demolish Techwood and build a replacement. Centennial Place. For the opening of the 1996 Olympics, Techwood was demolished, although visitors were able to tour the project’s virtual exhibit. [20] When Centennial Place opened, the concept changed to a mixed income community, with only 300 of the previous 1,100 units remaining for low income residents. [20]

      Centennial Place has been positively recognized by HUD and the Urban Lands Institute. As of 2007, Centennial Place had a math, science and technology focused elementary school, a YMCA, a bank branch, a day care center, and retail stores. It was planned to include housing units. [21]

      New Model: VPC

      Main article: Atlanta Mixed Income Communities

      In 1994, René Glover became AHA Chair and became one of the main advocates for the Centennial Place project. After its completion, she began working to demolish the rest of Atlanta’s public housing to replace them with “Mixed Income Communities,” or MICs. This concept was formalized in 1996 and was adopted by the HOPE VI program at the national level. From 19From 1996 to 2011, Atlanta continued the process of demolishing the complexes, taking advantage of relaxed federal regulations that were in place until 2010. The agency offered eligible residents a variety of relocation options and long-term assistance, including federal vouchers for rental assistance anywhere in the country. [22] However, not all residents are eligible for vouchers. When Bowen Homes was demolished in 2011, Atlanta became the first American city to demolish all of its family-run public housing. However, only a small proportion of the houses that were demolished were actually replaced by apartments in mixed income communities. This was partly because these blocks were never planned to be built, partly because a 2008 accident forced the AHA to cancel restoration plans. And since Atlanta homeowners are not required to accept housing vouchers, many have allegedly left the city or become homeless. [23]

      In 2011, the AHA also demolished the Roosevelt House and Palmer House high rises for the elderly and relocated residents to other homes. [24] However, John O. Chiles and Cosby Spear’s high-rise senior citizens’ homes remained open. [21]

      Problems during the phase-out

      When the AHA began to systematically close and demolish projects, a number of problems arose.

      In 2004, the AHA required that all non-disabled adults aged 18 to 61 be employed or successfully complete vocational training or some other educational assistance. By 2007, nearly all able-bodied adults living in the remaining housing projects were eligible. [25]

      In 2008, residents of Bowen Homes and others expressed concern that the AHA had not found homes to relocate to prior to the demolition of the 3,000 families living in the complex. According to research, the switch to vouchers concentrated displaced residents by race and income in violation of the Fair Housing Act, prompting a fair housing complaint to be filed with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). [26] HUD has been directed to approve demolition applications.

      AHA today

      The AHA continues to provide housing or housing assistance to low-income families, albeit on a smaller scale. 12 communities are owned by the AHA and controlled by private property management firms, including 10 high-rise seniors and 2 low-rise family complexes. 1793 families live in them. [2] Since 1995, the AHA has helped finance the creation of 16 mixed income communities owned by private developers. They serve 3996 households. [2] The AHA provides housing vouchers to 8,391 families. Through the Homeflex program, the AHA is helping private developers provide housing to 3,364 eligible households. Finally, the HAVEN program provides housing for 1,941 families at risk of homelessness and provides intensive counseling for all programs.

      At the end of 2017, AHA served 23,180 households. [2] They were divided into five groups:
