Early Childhood Program

math

We follow a 3 year curriculum for preschool through kindergarten. Children are taught individually, at their own speed and level of learning in core areas of learning.
Those core areas include:

  • math
  • language
  • sensorial development
  • practical life skills
  • geometry
  • zoology
  • art
  • geography

Lessons are given to each child as they develop new skills, and build upon previous lessons. The sequence of materials is one of the classic aspects of Montessori education. Lessons proceed from very concrete and hands-on to more abstract and complex ideas. Montessori teachers encourage exploration and growth of each child academically, emotionally and socially, through individual and group activities. Children have recess in the morning and afternoon, to promote physical activity, cooperative play, and social skills. The result is a total approach that follows the child through stages of development.
