b'Education for PeaceA true citizen of the world, Dr. Maria Montessori told us, The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind. With an implicit emphasis on peace in her writings, Montessori provides us with a sense of vision as we direct our own work. Her vision was to create an obstacle-free environment within which children could fully realize their potentialsas individuals and members of communities. Montessori teachers are in a unique position to introduce practical tools for individual and community peacemaking and to help children incorporate the abstract concept of peace into their own lives.Classroom Peace Book SetThis special paperback set features two classroom favorites: The Peace Rose (R08) and Our Peaceful Classroom (R50).
