A IMPORTÂNCIA DA TEORIA MONTESSORIANA PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO DA AUTONOMIA DA CRIANÇA

Abstract

This paper through a literature search versus a discussion about the importance of the development of the child's anatomy based on the fundamentals of the Montessori Theory. The research question is how the Montessori theory helps in the development of the autonomy of the child. To answer it we can understand that Maria Montessori aims to apply methodologies that emphasize autonomy, and freedom with limits and respect aimed at the functionality of the natural development of the physical, cultural, social, and psychological abilities of the child. In this sense, the article is structured in a chapter divided into three topics. The first topic makes rescue of the most significant facts of Maria Montessori's life trajectory, both personal and professional; the second presents an approach to the Montessori pedagogical principles that underlie her educational method; and finally, the third talks about a survey of the pillars of the Montessori theory. Finally, to weave about Maria Montessori's influence in Brazilian education requires a certain amount of care, it is necessary to point out that her theories have guided the history of Brazilian education, but they still go through great challenges of acceptance in their potentiality, from the family adaptation to the school environment.
