This is the perfect book to use with children in grades one through four throughout the year!

If you need assistance with planning, making and presenting the Montessori lessons for children in grades one through four, this is the book for you! Besides receiving indepth information about how to actually create a Montessori environment, you will learn how to do what is necessary to present integrated lessons involving phonics, spelling, reading, writing, science, social studies, foreign languages and more... You will receive additional information on where and how to quickly find extension exercises in all subject areas. Besides receiving actual lessons, you will also be able to obtain information on how to construct some of the apparatus and games. And, most importantly, you will be able to do this inexpensively. If you elect not to make the apparatus, you will also be directed to additional appropriate resources in every subject area.

The new guide can be used by both parents and teachers in elementary schools to excite the student's desire to learn, which is the whole basis of the Montessori method.

Modern Montessori at Home is practical and detailed. Parents and teachers should have no trouble assembling the materials for its games and exercises, and may actually find it fun." Chris Thompson, Vallley Roadrunner Newspaper, Valley Center, CA.

"Spietz is a Montessori teacher and tutor and knows whereof she speaks and writes, and her new book will be a Godsend to those who read the first one and want more.

Spietz uses proven Montessori philosophy and notes that modern tools should be worked into the program. Read Spietz' book and you get the feeling that she enjoys teaching and that her students enjoy learning.

So, if you're looking for a way to teach the kids, 6 to 9 years old and you've often thought you could do it yourself, a copy of this book might not be a bad thing to have. Even if you don't teach your kids at home, it wouldn't hurt to know how Spietz and others might do it, Montessori style." Dick Nichols, (former editor of the The Daily Pasadena Citizen Newspaper), Pasadena, CA
