Today's
Great Lesson becomes our story – the child’s story. The human being
enters the scene with the very special attributes of reason and will –
intelligence and love – with an ability to work with the hand in ways unknown
to other animals and with the possibility of choice.
Dr. Montessori said,
“Something new came into the world with man, a psychic energy of life,
different from any that had yet been expressed.” Human beings have used their
intelligence, love and hands to continue their own story. Two of their major
accomplishments, literacy and numeration, are introduced in the next two Great
Lessons
