Montessori Dictionary
DISCOVER TERMS, MATERIALS AND CONCEPTS IN A SIMPLE AND PRACTICAL WAY
What We Offer:
Everything you need to know about Montessori, in one place!
Montessori pedagogy is much more than an educational method—it's a philosophy of life that respects the child's rhythm and encourages their autonomy from an early age. This dictionary was created to help parents, educators, and caregivers better understand this transformative approach. Here, you'll find clear and objective explanations of key Montessori terms, materials, and principles, making it easier to apply this knowledge in your daily life. In addition to definitions, this space organizes each concept that connects to Montessori practice, whether in the organization of the environment, the way materials are presented, or the way children are observed and supported in their development.
Whenever you come across a Montessori term you're unfamiliar with or want to better understand a concept, come back here to consult it. This dictionary is constantly evolving, so feel free to explore and revisit it whenever you need.

Furthermore, our approach is humane and inclusive—we know that each family has its own dynamics and that there's no one-size-fits-all approach. Therefore, we offer personalized support, practical activities, and actionable tips, always valuing children's bonding and autonomy. At Mãe Montessori, you don't just learn about Montessori—you live Montessori.
