"Education is a natural process carried out by the child and is not acquired by listening to words but by experiences in the environment". - Dr. Maria Montessori
The Montessori Method has specialized learning materials which are presented, depending on your child's readiness. Learning in a Montessori Environment is so individually paced, helping your child to be confident and self-directed learners.
The Exercises of Practical Life curriculum in Montessori provides a scope and sequence for everyday practices like chopping vegetables, dressing oneself, cleaning, courtesies and more. The activities in Exercises of Practical life helps your child to become more independent and to gain life skills.
The sensorial activities in the Montessori Environment helps your child in developing the six senses – Sight (Visual), Touch (tactile), Smell (olfactory), Taste (gustatory), Sound (auditory), Stereognostic (kinesthetic), Sensorial material isolates one defining quality such as colour, weight, shape, texture, size, sound, smell and taste.
The development of language in the child begins at birth. In the Montessori Environment, children are introduced to vocabulary by naming the objects in the environments. The Montessori language approach is through phonetics, where the sounds of each letter is given to children which help them in their reading skills.
Children learn to organize numbers in their mind and understand what numbers mean in the real sense. The Montessori Math includes the development of concepts such as numeration, place value, fractions and the basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division using numbers up to 9999.
Through the Science curriculum, children are introduced to the world of plants and animals, and they are taught to explore and compare their similarities and differences. By engaging with the natural world in this way, children gain knowledge in both geography and biology.
