Morning Program (AM)
The Montessori classroom is a carefully prepared environment with materials created by Dr. Maria Montessori for children between the ages of 3 and 6. Each material is a concrete representation of an abstract idea. Â The materials provide a challenge for various ages and stages of development. Â The classroom is comprised of children ages 3 to 6. Â The mixed age groups in each class allow each child to advance at his or her own pace, and gives the older students an opportunity to reinforce their knowledge by helping the younger students. Â The students in our Morning Program stay with the same class and teacher through Kindergarten.
The Montessori classrooms are commonly referred to as prepared environments. Â The classroom is organized into several areas of activity including Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math, Geography, Science, Art, Snack Area and a Computer Station.
Our current educational curriculum is enriched with Music (once a week), Gym (twice a week), and Spanish (once a week) conducted by our teachers. Â The Morning Program runs from 8:45-11:45a.m., five days a week.
