| Education
(December 28, 2007) Montessori method "Montessori is not a system for training children in academic studies; nor is it a label to be put on educational materials. It is a revolutionary method of observing and supporting the natural development of children. Montessori educational practice helps children develop creativity, problem solving, critical thinking and time-management skills, to contribute to society and the environment, and to become fulfilled persons in their particular time and place on Earth. The basis of Montessori practice in the classroom is respected individual choice of research and work, and uninterrupted concentration rather than group lessons led by an adult. Group lessons are seldom found in a Montessori classroom but learning abounds. As you read through these pages you will discover the unique practices that make Montessori the fastest growing and most successful method of education today. " (http://www.montessori.edu/) |

Health (September 5, 2007) I have been following news about a research at the Southern Illinois University Carbondale Vivarium. A dwarf mouse called GHR-KO 11C, lived for 4 years, 11 months and 3 weeks old. OK! That is equal of 180 to 200 years. In a previous study, another mouse died in 1996, she was 4 years and 2 months old. Photo: Michael Bonkowski |
