Our goal is to create a self-motivated individual who can adapt to his time, space and group and fulfill his potential.
Allowing the child to have the choice for the materials spurs this motivation.
As the child successfully completes a task, the more confidence and security he gains to go on to a more difficult activity or area in the classroom.
