Maria Montessori was born in 1870 in northernItaly. Both her parents were well educated.
While Maria was a student, she took great interest in the study of the special nature of the child’s mind. It came to her that small children should have freedom (自由)to learn.
Maria became a doctor and a professor (教授)at Rome University. In 1907, after working with backward (落后的)students, she was given a chance to try out her ideas on children. There were sixty children, aged three to six, in the Children’s House. The rooms were bright and colorful. Maria let the children make their own choice of what they wanted to do and work with their own speed. They became busy, peaceful and happy.
