study of mathematics and the dead languages, the military discipline of the army, mortification of the flesh, make character.

. Montessori gives us a new rule for developing character in children. She says:

“Seek the child’s first longings if you would train his will. Give him the foundation of will by helping him to concentrate on something he
instinctively craves to be busy about and so lay the foundation stones of his character.”

Montessori will-training proves itself in results.
