Learn to Concentrate, Learn to Love
by Jennifer Rogers
Jennifer Rogers weaves the subtle relationship between concentration, purposeful work, and
love into a delicate web of spirituality. Deep and compelling in her description of engaged and
self-motivated activity, this article reads almost like scripture, the reverence for child development
is both idealistic and original—yet very recognizable as part of the Montessori perspective that
every parent should understand.
James
James is one of our best students. His is very smart but not precocious; he is athletic but not the
star of his soccer team. James has several good buddies, but he is not the most popular boy in
the elementary class. His area of greatest strength is his ability to concentrate. Almost every day,
James fully engages in work that he has selected and works without interruption for hours.
After his first day of fifth grade, James told his parents he had a good day. He talked about his
friends, the playground, and the people he sat with at lunch. “It wasn’t a great day, though,” he
said. “Over the summer I forgot how to do some of my challenging work. I wasn’t able to concentrate like I usually can.”
James ran off to play; he was not upset or worried. His parents were shocked. “James has a good
vocabulary and we knew he understood the meaning of concentration, but we were amazed that
he could apply the word to himself in a way that was so insightful.”
James knows what concentration means. He also knows what concentration feels like, and he
loves it.
Jennifer Rogers has been a primary teacher for twenty years and the last ten
have been at Countryside Montessori School (IL). Mrs. Rogers has a bachelor’s
degree in religious studies and English from Albion College and a master’s degree
in theological studies from Candler Seminary at Emory University. She completed
AMI primary training in Atlanta, AMI assistants to infancy in Denver, and the AMI
Montessori Orientation to Adolescent Studies. She has completed the Catechesis of
the Good Shepherd training at the primary level as well as the comprehensive and
advanced continuum Orton Gillingham training. Her articles on children’s spiritual
development have been published in several professional and parenting newspapers
and magazines, and her first short book on these topics, Faith in a Child, can be
purchased through NAMTA.

Concentration
Healthy adults are a diverse population, and we are outstandingly different in our goals and
intentions. The legendary psychologist Erik Erikson noted that most healthy people mature in
predictable phases. He also pointed out that all healthy people have two things in common: We
engage in constructive work and we invest in love.
Maria Montessori uses different terms to describe the growth of children, but
her conclusions are very similar to Erikson’s. She noticed that when they are
offered time and space to work, children respond with abundant joy. Children
have two fundamental needs she said: constructive work and consistent love.
Montessori’s observations of children working with joy sparked a revolution
in early childhood education. She said that children who are concentrating
should be treated like royalty, cherished and protected.
The notion that healthy children can concentrate remains as counter-cultural
today as it was one hundred years ago. We suspect that there are several
ways in which concentration is more compromised today than it was for the
children in the impoverished communities that Montessori first observed.
Distractions definitely abound and proliferate. Television, Internet use, cell
phones, and iPods—the list is obvious and long. Attention does often seem
to be in a deficit and plummeting. Nonetheless, the ability to concentrate
remains the hallmark of human health and is the only path to a lifetime of
loving and learning.
Purposeful Work
Maria Montessori believed that every child should have opportunities to select her work in her
home and classroom. Montessori also believed that the work a child chooses is less significant
than the experience that should follow. The child’s absorption should be complete and specific,
and attention should be fully directed to the task. A child’s concentration should be evident in
the tireless repetition, furrowed brow, and the ability to ignore the movement and noise that
often surround the work space.
Montessori built low cupboards for her first young students and left them unlocked because
“the children knew the objects so well that they could make their own choice” (The Secret of
Childhood 121). The small change in cupboards made a huge difference in the lives of those
fortunate young people. “The children could take from them the material that corresponded to
their own inner needs” (ibid).
Concentration may begin with a button frame or a watering can, but it always involves the coordinated, intentional use of both mental and physical energies. E.M. Standing notes that “concentration is the key that opens up to the child the latent treasures within him” (Maria Montessori:
Her Life and Work 174). A toddler can become completely absorbed in setting the table. Older
children scrub tables, sew burlap, read, calculate, weave ,and write with a concentrated vigor
that has nothing to do with rewards or punishments. An adolescent may become so engaged
in the preparation of a community meal that time loses its meaning.
Maria Montessori noticed that when a young person finished a task that had commanded his
full attention for an extensive period of time, he was refreshed and invigorated. She expected
her young students to be exhausted, but they were full
of joy and renewed in energies. Given uninterrupted time

our planet.

The Intelligence of Love
The energy that can help mankind is that which lies within the child. (The Secret of
Childhood 207)
Maria Montessori believed that the simple love that is evident in the work of young children is
also the fire that inspires all great works of creation. “Every work which is done according to the
laws of nature and creates a harmony among beings attains consciousness under a form of
love,” she writes (The Secret of Childhood 103). Like Erikson, Montessori understood that work
and love are essential to human health, for people of all ages, on every continent.
Children who can concentrate grow up to
be adults who succeed in corporate finance,
household management, performance arts,
and global politics. Regardless of intelligence
or talent, young adults who can concentrate
are well prepared to synthesize information,
create, and contribute knowledge in fields that
have not yet been imagined. Young people who
can concentrate are also eager to engage in
the ultimate human endeavor, demonstrating
tireless love for a partner or a child, a neighbor
or a stranger.
Concentration is a teacher’s word. Love is more
spiritual, a deeply personal and private word.
Loving is, though, a form of concentration. To
love is to give our full attention to another person, over and over, with great joy. Maria Montessori believed that education should not be a preparation for school, but for life. She announced
the secret of childhood because she knew children who are offered choice and opportunity can
and will concentrate. She believed in their capacity for constructive work. She also understood
that it is through concentration that children learn how to work and love.

Hooked on Sugar
by Margaret Adamek
Nutritional awareness in Montessori programs shape palates, build skills, create community, and
support the health of young children. Research that links brain biochemistry, nutrition, gardening,
and brain development demonstrates the importance of integrating holistic education for young
children and their families. Margaret Adamek’s longstanding experience in urban, rural, tribal,
local, state and federal contexts informs her rich expertise in food systems change.
The Statistics Aren’t New, and They Aren’t Pretty
Nearly one-third of American children are overweight. Forty percent of girls and a third of boys
born in 2000 will acquire type II diabetes by the time they turn 50. At the same time, increasing
numbers of children are diagnosed with attention deficit disorder, depression, and generalized
anxiety disorder.
While many schools focus on diet in combating childhood obesity and
diabetes, few pay attention to how diets affect student behavior and
academic performance. Most often, the interventions for these problems
are pharmacological — the Drug Enforcement Administration reports
that 85 percent of all amphetamine prescriptions are administered to
children, and doctors now prescribe 30 times more legal amphetamines
to children than they did in 1990.
Research suggests that a
dependency on refined
carbohydrates that
begins early in life also
creates a higher risk of
addiction to drugs and
alcohol as adults.
As schools and communities consider the importance of food in the
lives of our children, it is critical to acknowledge how what we eat —
in particular, the glut of refined carbohydrates in our diets — affects
our brains, behavior, and health. Since 1970, American consumption
of high-fructose corn syrup has increased by 40 times, and we eat 300 calories more per day.
One-third of American children eat fast food every day — in addition to the processed foods
they receive through school meal programs and packaged foods at home.
An array of evidence suggests that obesity, diabetes, depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, and assorted addictions share neurochemical roots that are seriously influenced by this
high-carbohydrate diet. According to Dr. Kathleen DesMaisons, bestselling author of Potatoes
Not Prozac, “sugar sensitive” people are born with low levels of the brain chemicals serotonin
(a condition tied to depression, aggression, and poor attention and impulse control) and dopamine (drug and alcohol addiction, low self-esteem, violence, and anger). They also have volatile
blood sugar (associated with diabetes, fatigue, moodiness, feeble concentration, and emotional
Margaret Adamek is the owner of Terra Soma LLC, a consulting
firm that helps communities and organizations working on systems
change to build effective collaborations. She has worked for nearly
two decades on improving food environments for urban, rural, and
tribal communities. Her innovative work on connecting agricultural
production, food environments, brain chemistry, behavior, and the
contemporary American diet has been featured on Air America Radio, in Alternative Healing Magazine, The New York Times Sunday
Magazine and at national and international conferences.

outbursts). Additionally, these people are born with low beta-endorphin, a condition associated
with chemical dependence and a sense of victimization and alienation.
As with any addict looking for a fix, sugar-sensitive people with these traits seek substances
that alleviate the symptoms, if only temporarily. And, as with any addiction, the short-lived relief compounds the problem — people grow helpless to the pull of refined carbohydrates and
low-protein foods (the template of the contemporary American diet), which only deepens their
despair. Research suggests that a dependency on refined carbohydrates that begins early in
life also creates a higher risk of addiction to drugs and alcohol as adults.
“The good news about biochemically based behavior is that it can change, and it can change
rapidly,” DesMaisons says. “You do not have to pursue years of psychotherapy to get results.”
Nor do we have to imagine a future where young people, just to feel healthy and normal, are
treated with insulin for diabetes, antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication, amphetamines
for hyperactivity, and gastric bypass surgery for obesity.
DesMaisons has developed a food plan that stabilizes the biochemical conditions behind sugar
sensitivity and improves the body’s regulation of blood sugar. The diet is highlighted by the steady
removal of refined carbohydrates and processed foods. DesMaisons champions quality protein
and complex carbohydrates, fresh fruits and vegetables, essential fatty acids, and consistent
mealtimes. For children, sweetened and caffeinated drinks are out. Even diet soft drinks are
excluded, as sweet taste alone stimulates the addictive opiate response in the brain. Regular
snacks are in, if they contain protein and a complex carbohydrate.
I have partnered with DesMaisons to found the Sugar Project, to explore and design treatments
based on the relationships between brain chemistry, the unprecedented consumption of refined
carbohydrates, and our health. We believe we have a nation of children facing lifelong, irreversible health and psychological difficulties due to their diets. A key part of our strategy is offering
local, sensible tools for transformation in family diets, school meals, alcoholism treatment, and
public health interventions. We have seen powerful results in thousands of people from these
low-cost, food-based solutions.
After a recent workshop I gave to high school
biology teachers, a teacher told me, “My rural
school district is worried about methamphetamine and our kids. This is true for maybe ten
students. But the behavior and psychological
issues associated with teenage diet that you
describe fit every single one of my 130 students.
This is a huge epidemic happening right under
our noses.”
A public alternative high school for at-risk
students in Appleton, Wisconsin, responded
to the same issues by changing student diets.
Students were required to eat breakfasts and
lunches at school that contained omega-3 fatty
acids, dense protein, fresh vegetables and fruit,
complex carbohydrates, and freely available water. Truancy and dropout rates, school violence,
classroom disruptions, and academic underachievement evaporated.
“Even though it may seem obvious and simple, the foods in this plan actually create profound
physical and emotional change,” DesMaisons says. “Don’t be deceived by the simplicity. This is
powerful medicine.”
