Montessori Education
Montessori education is a child-centered educational approach based on Maria Montessori’s observations of children. It acknowledges that children are naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully prepared learning environment. It is an approach that values the human spirit and the development of the whole child—physical, social, emotional, cognitive.
Montessori offers a prepared environment that encourages children to work independently and fosters the internal curiosity of the child as motivation to learn and to learn respect for environment. The school has trained Montessori teachers and the complete battery of Montessori materials. |
