Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Montessori saw that adult correction and praise disrupt the child’s concentration, which is necessary for cognitive development. The goal is that the child will develop a sense of satisfaction from the work itself, not be dependent on the approval of the teacher or others.

Detailed explanation-2: -Montessori’s theory identifies four planes of development that indicate what children are motivated to learn during each stage. The planes are: absorbent mind (birth-6 years old), reasoning mind (6-12 years old), social consciousness (12-18 years old), and transition to adulthood (18-24 years old).

Detailed explanation-3: -The Montessori philosophy helps young children to build emotional intelligence through relationships, interactions, and activities. Instead of hovering over the child, directing them at every moment, the Montessori educator acts as more of a guide. This allows the child to take control and learn how to self-regulate.

Detailed explanation-4: -The three-period lesson includes: Introduction, Association/Recognition, and Recall. This is the child’s very first exposure to a new topic being learned. In this period, we are simply providing a name for the concept and allowing the child to explore.
