One question that keeps coming up in our Open Days’ interactions is: what is The Montessori Method?

Giving a personal interpretation may deviate from the original, and since we are rather purists, at Unity Montessori, we thought it would be best to place here relevant literature, so interested parents can read and inform themselves about Montessori’s education system.

Project Gutenberg has digitalised some of the books by Maria Montessori, which can either be read online, or downloaded as eBook to Kindle / iBooks:

• The Montessori Method
• Dr Montessori’s Own Handbook
• The Montessori Elementary Material

Within the Advanced Montessori Method:

• Pedagogical Anthropology by Maria Montessori
• Spontaneous Activity in Education

There are other books, that are integral part of Montessori’s education, and are required reading to better understand what The Montessori Method is about:

• The Absorbent Mind
• The Secret of Childhood
• The Discovery of the Child

We also encourage those interested in educating children through Montessori’s Method to watch the following videos (source MCI):

We’ve been visiting @unity_montessori this morning, a brand new Montessori nursery opening this September in Woodside Park, such a beautiful place! Someone was very excited exploring all the Montessori materials…Congrats! #montessori #montessorilondon #montessorieducation #nursery #woodsidepark #montessorikids

We are very pleased to announce that our London nursery has received OFSTED’s Certificate of Registration!

The news came yesterday through the post. Parents can now check our registration details by visiting OFSTED website. This really came at the perfect time, as our Open Day Events start tomorrow!

We would like to take this opportunity to invite families in Woodside Park and surrounding areas of North London to come for a visit, meet our staff and check our lovely new setting.
