dc.description.abstractDisplays of children's artwork are common in early childhood classrooms. Maria Montessori, however, did not write about visual displays. Just like in all other areas of the classroom a Montessori guide should ponder over the materials' purpose. In an action research project with a class of 40 children, 33 months to 5-years-old, this article offers insight into how children's artwork and visual displays should be used in a Montessori classroom to benefit children's learning. Over 7 weeks the Montessori Children's House bulletin boards were changed weekly. Each week parents completed surveys and children were interviewed. Parents loved seeing photographs of their children working and their child's artwork on display. Ultimately, Montessori guides should continue to leave freedom to the children about what they would like to display to create more personalization in the classroom.en
