The traditional approach to teaching children entails a teacher providing the necessary information a student has to know thus being the primary source of learning. In this method, the kids are confined to believe whatever the teacher says. However, the Montessori elementary education exposes kids to journey and discovery under the guidance of educators. This brand of education believes in the value of allowing kids to learn according to their level of understanding and discover answers to their questions.
