On the contrary, Montessori's work has been validated and reinforced by research and scientific insights in recent decades. [1]
If you truly seek to understand the Montessori teaching method and materials, you should look into her writings, including the teacher's guides. She experimented and developed these materials and methods over decades. Her purpose was to teach children mastery of their mind and hands, our two unique tools of survival.

I have both German Mathematics Teachers Manuals right here. I work with her material nearly every day. My point is that there are better sources to base a mathematics game upon, not that her didactics are inferior (compared to what). Still if i could choose if my son should go to a "normal" Teacher or a Teacher with a Montessori training i'd choose the latter.
