Spelling Out Life... with A Teacher's Quote


A child who... has traced over the sandpaper letters again and again for many days – perfecting something in himself – will one day consciously set out to compose words with the movable letters. First, the child creates by repetition a faculty inside himself; and then he creates something with it, outside himself. This is an experience which gives him a new kind of joy, the conscious joy of the creator.

- Maria Montessori
