Early Childhood

The Early Childhood classroom has 4 and 5 year olds. There are six areas in the classroom: practical life, sensorial, mathematics, language arts, geography and art. Each area has materials carefully prepared for children. The work area has works for the children to explore and feel. the teacher helps guide the children to choose a material or work. The teacher gives individual lessons or presentations. Montessori Education, for the young child, is a method of education that hopes to instill a love of learning. The process of learning is more important than the product. We nurture independence, concentration, order and coordination. We believe touching, feeling and using all the senses are important. Maria Montessori once said, The had is the instrument of the mind.

We offer both full and half day kindergarten program. We offer half day program for 4 year olds.
