THE MoNTEssoRI MOVEMENT

The Montessori movement, consid.
cred by many radical departure from
traditional educational methods, is re.
viewed by Miss Anne e. George in the

method is summed up as "freedom of

DR.. Montessori's particular contri-
button to the world, according TO Miss
George, has been that Of applying the
methods of experimental science to the
study Of maa. The Montessori "didac.
tic material" " it is explained, tends
to replace the teacher at the earliest
stage Of education and make IL pos.
sible for the child to accomplish his
first work independently Of mature
mind. "Out of such experiments and

establishes declares Miss George,

TESTING THE VALUE
OF THE KINDERGARTEN

The value of the kindergarten as
tested by its results is discussed by
Miss A. NJ. Winchester in an annual
review of kindergarten work Just is
sued by the commission of education
For several years investigations
have been undertaken in different cit
les" says the review, ''for the pur-
pose of aseertaining the advantage
gained by children with kindergarten
training over non-kindergarten chill
dren. The emphasis in these investi-
cations has been placed usually upon
the rate of speed with which the chill
dren make the successive grades.
"The fallacy of drawing conclus-
ions from such surveys" says Miss
Winchester, "is manifest at once. 1t
is well-nigh impossible to gauge the
speed correctly, because in the first
grade both kindergarten and non,kin-
dergarten children are placed together,
and by the rule of uniformity which
seems necessary in school systems, the
teacher uncon'sciously standardizes the
progress of her class. The laggards
are brought up by dint of conscien-
tious work, and the forward ones are
held in leash, so that by the time the
fifth or sixth grade is reached, what
ever special impetus may have result
ed from the child's kindergarten train
ing has ceased to be measurable.
In any event the permanent value
of the kindergarten has little if any
connection with the number of years
required to go through the grades. The
kindergarten concern is with the con
tent of the years rather than with
their number; with the fulness of the
life of the child rather than with the
mere economy of time. Power to think
and do, a tendency to assume right
attitudes toward life, and ability to
work and play happily with ones fel.
lows-these are the results of training
based upon the belief of education by
development.
An investigation about to be under
taken by the international Kindergar'
ten Union in this field, Miss Winches
ter points out, will involve making a
study in several different cities of one
set of children who entered kindergar'
ten five years ago and another set in
the same school who did not attend
kindergarten. The records of these
children will be examined with refer
ence to their interests, attitudes, spir
it toward one another, and with refer
ence to their proficiency in schoo
studios. The quality and spirit of the
teachers of these children as well as the
quality and spirit of the homes from
which these children come will be tax
EN- into consideration.

1.-THE junior high school also makes
easier the transition of pupils to the
high school. That the change between
the elementary and the high school
should be so sharp permits no iustifica.
ton. To bridge this gap by earlier
introduction to high school subjects
and methods of teaching has greatly
improved results, it is claimed.
"The junior high school has further
more greatly decreased elimination OF
pupils from school. This elimination
after the seventh, eighth, and nintl
| grades has been one Of the greatest
reproaches to our educational system
Any plan that promises to retain chill
dren in school beyond these grades j,
worthy of the most careful considera
tion."
That the junior high school furnishe,
an opportunity for various needed re
forms in instruction is the final claim
of the new movement, according to DR.
Briggs. He points out that in the jun
! ior high school course of study based
on the newer principles of psychology
sociology, and economies, various pro
visions for individual differences, and
especially an improved method of teach
ing, can now be introduced.
Los Angeles (Cal.) high school; Butte
(Mont.) high school; Wisconsin High
school, Madison, Wis; and Horace
Mann School New York City, are cited
as successfully organized junior high
schools, "Los Angeles having far out
stripped all other cities in developing
! them. "
