Our Programs

The toddler years are the time when children use their bodies, senses, and emerging problem-solving skills to learn about and make sense of their world, in ways most meaningful and effective for them.

Dr. Montessori was one of the first educators to recognize the first few years of a child’s life as critical to the development of personality and intellect. Toddlers are actively seeking out information, they learn quickly and easily, and are especially interested in demonstrating independence. Our toddler classrooms allow them the freedom to learn as much as they can, as quickly as possible.

This is the time for children to explore and discover through active play, since children learn best by doing. In addition, our educators give toddlers responsive, individualized attention to help build skills in:

• Sensory and Perception.
• Self-help.
• Language.
• Physical and Motor Skills.
• Social and Emotional Growth.

Please note: Programs for younger children may not be available. Age for programs varies by location. Check with your local school.

The Primary program offers a unique, mixed-age classroom environment, for children approximately 3 to 5 years old. Here, children engage in individual learning experiences, as well as one-on-one interactions, which are integral to the Montessori Method.

As children get older, they tend to see things that adults find ordinary as very interesting and special. Practical life exercises like sorting, pouring, or washing dishes absorb them completely.

We recognize this as the beginning of control and coordination of mind and body. That’s why Montessori learning revolves around tangible, hands-on experiences.

Children use concrete materials to learn math; movable alphabet letters to explore language; and cubes, cylinders and other objects to categorize, find spatial relationships, and more. Practical learning experiences explore key subjects including:

• Science and Nature
• Music and Movement
• Sensorial
• Cooking and Nutrition
• Cultural Awareness
• History
• Geography
• Language Arts
• Mathematics

In the process, children are discovering independence, confidence, and innovation.

Our schools offer educational programs in the summer months, to continue the Montessori experience.

The authentic Montessori approach to summer combines physical and emotional development with exciting endeavors involving art, music, science, culture, and more.

Events, speakers, and activities are determined by individual schools, offering a unique program for their students. Don’t let the excitement and inspiration of summer pass your child by…
