Our curriculum
Our curriculum is designed to build a strong foundation in social, emotional, physical and academic development. This approach encourages a child’s independence, self-motivation, and decision-making skills.
Our activities are carefully crafted to capture the moment of readiness in each child, and cater to individual needs. Both inside and outside the classroom, children develop respect and courtesy, co-operation and self-control while growing their own individual talents, interests and abilities.
Preschool children experience intense periods of change, both cognitively and socially. The teacher, always observant, responds with appropriate lessons to support each child’s individual growth, interests and capabilities. The academic materials presented, are designed to stimulate a child’s senses as well as respond to their need for order and a sense of mastery within the world.
We guide each child to “to do it by myself,” thus satisfying the child’s basic need for independence. Additionally, by helping children believe that they are capable, competent, and confident, we help create positive attitudes toward learning that last a lifetime.
Our classroom is equipped with a full complement of Montessori educational materials that attract the child's attention and engage their natural desire to learn. Our Montessori materials provide the child with the opportunity for hands-on learning with concrete representations of concepts which are essential for the development of a strong foundation of understanding. Each student learns in a calm and orderly environment that is prepared to meet the cognitive, physical, social and emotional needs of children from 3 to 6 years of age.
