A must have resource for every teacher! This book explains how the fundamental purpose of Maria Montessori's work was to bring about a more peaceful world by nurturing the spirit of the child. Aline Wolf includes discussion about such important issues as: What is the meaning of the word spirit? How is nurturing the spirit fundamentally different from teaching a specific religion? How can we nurture the spirit in non-sectarian classrooms? How can teachers become spiritually aware? and How can we explain spiritual nurturing to parents? This book is also available in Spanish.

Inspiring and needed in our educational system,

This review is from: Nurturing the Spirit: In Non-Sectarian Classrooms (Paperback)
All educators need to read this book. This book is about what our schools are missing - the nurturing and tending of children as whole beings. School's first and foremost job should be raising a human being, not just academic content. Although written by a Montessorian, this book is applicable to all styles of education and would be helpful to the home educator and parent as well. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Nurturing the Spirit: In Non-Sectarian Classrooms (Paperback)
I am so happy to have this book in my collection. As a teacher, it is difficult to pore through dense books, and this one is layed out in a way that is easy to digest, so I love that. I have implemented several ideas in my classroom already and hope to incorporate more in the future...
