モンテッソーリ法に従って子供に適した本を特定するにはどうすればよいですか?
1.ノンフィクションの本。モンテッソーリの哲学では、6歳未満の子供はまだ真実とファンタジーを区別できないことを念頭に置いて、幼児向けの童話にはファンタジーを含めないことを推奨しています。
2.現実に似た写真や絵。
3.デザインのシンプルさ。 子供が本を楽しむために過度に刺激される必要はないと信じられて
いるので、本は単純であることをお勧めします。
4.子どもたちが語彙を発達させると同時に、尊敬、優しさ、寛大さ、責任、共感などの価値観を育むのに役立つ物語。

How to Identify the Books that are Appropriated For Children According to the Montessori Method?

1. Non-fiction books. Since children under 6 years old still cannot differentiate reality from fantasy, the Montessori philosophy recommends that young children’s storybooks do not include fantasy.
2. Montessori philosophy advises using books where pictures or drawings resemble reality.
3. Simplicity in design. As with the materials used for learning activities, it is suggested that the books keep that simplicity, it is considered that the child does not need to be over-stimulated to be able to enjoy a book.
4. Stories that help the children to develop vocabulary and at the same time cultivate values such as respect, kindness, generosity, responsibility, empathy, etc.
