Montessori thought it was important that the works be beautiful to capture the interest and imagination of the child. Volkswagen, interestingly enough, has an initiative (http://www.thefuntheory.com/) to test how beautiful and interesting things can change social behavior in adults.

Hello world!
Because I can never remember even half of the great stuff I would like to use in my Montessori Middle School Class, I’ve created this little, external, supplement so I don’t have to.
The theme of this blog is spotlighting the beautiful, odd, perplexing things that might attract the curiosity of the early adolescent.
Please help yourself, and I’d love to have your comments if you use something and it worked (or especially if it did not).
