What is Montessori?
Exploring Practical Life
Whether it's pouring and mixing different ingredients, polishing shoes, gardening or sifting flour, children will start to care for themselves and the environment while completing a task from beginning to end

Sensorial experiences
Children will use their sense of smell,sight, hearing, and taste to learn and experiment with different materials and textures.
Developing Language Skills
Children are introduced to language activities such as sound games, word play and the alphabet as a means to discover and explore skills that lead to reading.

Discovering Math Concepts
Rather than memorization, Montessori relies on the use of hands-on activities to teach concrete math concepts in a fun, interactive way that will set children up for a lifelong love of learning.
