Montessori education is an innovative approach that nurtures a child’s natural curiosity and desire to learn. Rooted in the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori, this method creates a supportive environment where children engage in self-directed activities, developing independence, creativity, and a love for learning.
Practical Life Activities in Montessori education foster independence, coordination, and mindfulness by engaging children in everyday tasks that promote care for themselves, others, and their environment.
Children use their senses to explore and understand their environment through Montessori materials, which lay the foundation for intellectual growth and prepare them for geometry, math, and writing.
The Montessori environment fosters Language Arts by letting children explore letters and sounds themselves, using materials like sandpaper letters to link symbols to their sounds and develop writing skills.
Montessori education blends Geography, History, and Science with Sensorial and Language Arts, using maps, flags, and hands-on activities to teach concepts, cultural awareness, and natural phenomena, guided by a creative and observant teacher.
Children learn Mathematics in Preschool by using concrete materials to physically handle quantities and understand the decimal system, as well as performing operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with bead materials and number rods.
