Montessori Method

What is the Montessori Method?

The Montessori Method is a unique approach to Education which has existed for over 100 years, and it is followed throughout the World.

This method emphasizes the uniqueness, inviduality, and potential of each child to instinctively learn and explore their curiosity at their own individual pace.

Montessori focuses on the Whole Child Education, which means that in conjuction to learing subjects such as Mathematics, Social Studies, Natural Sciences, and Language, the child attains a unique experience using their senses while exploring through the Sensorial curriculum, and Practical life. The Practical Life and Sensorial curriculum teaches children to take care of themselves, and their environment, through personal responsibility and intrinsic rewards, this approach being unique to the Montessori Pedagogy.

Through this curriculum, children explore a"freedom within limits" environment, learn to develop a sense of self and independence, learn through trial and error, develop decision making skills, manage social norms in peer relationships, self-character, integrity, develope emotional intelligence, motor skills, and cognitive skills. All while "playing and exploring".
