One of the pillars of Montessori pedagogy is to educate for peace. Maria Montessori believed that two things were necessary for this: the awareness that everything is interconnected and gratitude.
The Great Lessons are the basis of cosmic education. Thanks to them children can learn:
🌀 To develop a knowledge of nature and its laws, awakening interest in history, geography, mathematics, science and language.
🌀 To feel gratitude towards previous generations who have done a work that allows us to be here today and benefit from that evolution.
🌀 To discover all the elements and forces of nature, understanding that even the smallest particle is part of a whole.
🌀 A sense of responsibility, importance and purpose of their own existence, as they discover their own place in this world.
