Starting a montessori preschool?

Question

Can anyone reccomend me a good book along the lines of "How to start a Montessori Preschool"?

Answer 1

Hi, I work at a "Montessori School" and when I first started they gave us this handbook about the basic ideas, I pasted it the link here for you: www.montessori.wa.edu.au/pdf/course/desc... but you can go to any search engine and type: "the montessori approach to education" and it will give a lot of information on the methods. You may also try these books out:
