...born for greater things
( Age: 2 years - 6 years )
The Montessori approach was designed to help children grow by letting them explore the world around them. Classrooms are called "prepared environments" where children's innate zeal for learning is encouraged allowing them opportunities to choose among an array of purposeful activities to work on with the guidance of a trained adult.

The method is based on the child's imperious need to learn by doing and has a profound respect for the child's personality. It enables the teacher to deal with each child individually in each subject. Each child works at his/her own pace, and the child has the freedom of movement in the classroom. Children pursue their own self-paced curriculum, and learning takes place individually or in small groups.

The classroom is composed of several learning areas: Language , Maths, Practical life , Sensorial, Science, Geography, Art & Music. The abundance of materials makes it possible for the children to exercise more self-direction and independent work than is usually possible in a traditional class room

The Montessori method develops the whole personality of the child, not merely his intellectual facilities, but also to become a self-directed, self disciplined person.
“we must help the child to liberate himself from his defects without making him feel his weakness”

Dr. Maria Montessori
