One of the days was a self-guided tour of sites around Rome where Maria Montessori and Adele Costa Gnocchi worked and where they lived. Palazzo Vidoni where Opera Nazionale and The Assistants to Infancy School were located for many years (above) and Montessori's home until 1911 (below)
Maria Montessori lived in this apartment building, when we found the front door open and looked inside, we were able to explore the front entry, the inner gardent, and walk up the staircases, only to wonder which door was the one where she lived with her parents Renilde and Alessandro.
In collaboration with Centro Nascita Montessori we offered a two-week course in Rome, Italy from June 22nd to July 6th 2019. The first Montessori Birth to Two International Course included seminars, workshops, and observations covering the science of adaptation (epigenetics), the history of brain science, experiential relationship building and deep listening exercises, how to work with newborns, "ambientamento" - the word that describes the process of growing into a new experience (not adaptation but expansion into a new reality) - and how to introduce babies and the youngest children into childcare in a non-violent way, movement studies by Emmi Pikler ... and much more.
