Maria Montessori was ahead of the current scientific brain research results when she advocated for movement as an integral part of learning. “From birth through adolescence, Montessori students of all ages are practicing and perfecting a huge variety of movements while learning content knowledge…. Movement in a Montessori environment is an integrated part of the method’s highly complex system. It is not used in order to help children learn as they sit. It’s HOW the children learn.”
