The child’s progress does not depend only on his age, but also on being free to look around him.

The teacher's task is not a small easy one! She has to prepare a huge amount of knowledge to satisfy the child's mental hunger. She is not like the ordinary teacher, limited by a syllabus. The needs of the child are clearly more difficult to answer.

Do not offer the child the content of the mind, but the order for that content.

The first idea that the child must acquire, in order to be actively disciplined, is that of the difference between good and evil.

Solicitous care for living things affords satisfaction to one of the most lively instincts of the child's mind. Nothing is better calculated than this to awaken an attitude of foresight.

We seek to sow life in the child rather than theories, to help him in his growth, mental and emotional as well as physical, and for that we must offer grand and lofty ideas to the human mind.

As soon as children find something that interests them they lose their instability and learn to concentrate.
