"The Montessori Notebook
for parents
for educators
for children"
Direzione: Grazia Honegger Fresco e Lia De Pra Cavalleri
This was the issue for the 100 year celebration in 2007.
One of the Questions I received in Prague at the International Montessori Congress (July 2017) was how one can purchase this Italian Montessori journal. At our information table for our Saturday presentation of the Cosmic Task of 0-3 we were selling a small selection of these journals that we had brought with us. Grazia Honegger Fresco and a group of colleagues in Northern Italy have been publishing this journal "the Montessori Notebook" since 1984 and they just finished the final one (#133). Il Quaderno Montessori will continue to have an online presence at www.quadernomontessori.weebly.com/
The cost of each yearly subscription was 30 Euros for Italian orders and 43 Euros for foreign orders. Contact the below email address to find out about purchasing single issues or a partial set. Some numbers of the back issues are no longer available so a full set is no longer available.
To order back issues (only available in Italian) you can write an email to: quadernomontessori@fimail.org
The journal has beautiful photos, furniture designs with measurements, project ideas for children, and many, many articles on different aspects of Montessori education across the age span (birth through elementary school).
