School Year: Toddler
School Year: Preschool
Respond to your toddler's desire for independence in our Toddler Environment, following Maria Montessori's philosophy and methods.
• Independence and decision making skills are nurtured as the children select Montessori activities designed for the young child. • Circle time includes vocabulary building, reading comprehension, language development, sorting and classification, letter and numeral recognition, sound/letter association, and music expression.
Begin the foundation your child will use for a lifetime using the materials and philosophy developed by Maria Montessori.
• Concrete, hands on learning. • Lesson plans developed based on the abilities and strengths of the individual child. • Independence, self-esteem, and confidences are the product of individualized learning. • Practical Life experiences develop focus, concentration, and fine motor skills. • Sensorial materials use the senses to further develop concentration and introduce beginning math concepts. • Language begins with familiar objects and relates the initial sound of the name to the letter. Children relate letters and their sounds to the world around them. • Math materials provide concrete learning for numeral recognition, counting, addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. Children master skills at the concrete level before moving to the abstract. • Cultural experiences include geography, botany, zoology, and continue through the interests and imagination of the child.
School Year: Elementary
Children continue and expand their love of learning as they refine the use of the materials and philosophy developed by Maria Montessori.
• Learning begins to move from the concrete to the abstract. • Individualized lesson plans continue with the children working at their own pace. • Independence, esteem, and confidence further develop as the children take more responsibility for their learning. • Traditional education and Montessori methods are combined to give students a well-rounded experience. • Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math, and Culture continue as the core of the curriculum and are extended and expanded as the child is ready.
