1 Science science = the state of knowing AMI/USA Refresher Course

2 Science is an important part of culture Science defines what we understand to be natural as well as what we understand to be rational. The scientific values of any culture are found in what are sought out as facts and produced as artifacts, what are designed as processes and products, what weapons are created and what are revered as wonders. Science is culturally expressed through creative expression such as music, film, art and literature. Scientific values become embodied and naturalized in our concepts, techniques, research priorities, inventions, politics and advertising. Science is culturally expressed through creative expression such as music, film, art and literature. $800 Billion $70 Billion $8 Billion AMI/USA Refresher Course

12 Biology Biology is the science that studies life in all its aspects: How living things live What they need for nourishment What conditions foster growth Life Cycles Interdependence of living things AMI/USA Refresher Course

13 Purposes of Biology in the Children s House: To guide the child s natural exploration To foster an appreciation of life and an awareness of the interdependence and inter-relatedness of nature To guide the child s observation of nature To help the child establish a framework in which he may begin to relate his experiences Nature Walks AMI/USA Refresher Course

14 The foot is noble. To walk is noble. Thanks to the feet, the child who already walks can expect of the outdoors certain answers to his secret questions. Maria Montessori Outdoor Environment AMI/USA Refresher Course

15 Botany Matter Living / Organic Biology Non-living / Inorganic Plants Botany Animals Zoology AMI/USA Refresher Course

16 Botany Activities in the Children s House Practical Life Caring for plants in the environment Planting seeds, inside and outside Harvesting Arranging flowers Aromatic flowers used for smelling jars Raking leaves Hoeing, weeding Potting or repotting plants as needed Composting AMI/USA Refresher Course

17 Botany Activities in the Children s House The Leaf Cabinet used with real leaves cordate acerose obcordate lanceolate lanceolate AMI/USA Refresher Course

18 Botany Activities in the Children s House The Leaf Cabinet used with real leaves Classified sets of pictures Give the names of the plants in the classroom Identify plants, bushes and trees in the outdoor environment Give the names of the parts of plants, flowers and leaves using real specimens Use of art medium to express knowledge of plants True stories, poems, songs, books, pictures on the wall Cultural folder of the natural world Botany Activities in the Children s House Reading Reading Classification Labels for the plants in the environment Plant care booklet for the plants in the environment Three-part Botany Cards Definitions Booklets for Botany Cards Books and poetry about plants, trees, flowers, biomes AMI/USA Refresher Course

19 This is a delicate task, for it we follow the traditional practice of describing flowers and plants, they become distasteful to children because they have to make an effort to understand the details. We thus stifle in children the possibility of eventually observing flowers and plants. If instead, we give them the principles which will enable them to observe these flowers; they will stop to observe with wonder all the particulars relative to these flowers and experience great joy. If we know how to cultivate this tendency, this thirst which gives them the delight of being a discoverer, then it is enough to put children in contact with nature for them to observe. This very different criterion in our method consists only of a special educational technique, which tends to prepare children to enjoy nature. Maria Montessori AMI/USA Refresher Course
