The Montessori environment provides an opportunity for young children to develop to their fullest potential. The classroom is designed with great precision providing a prepared environment which stimulates the child's natural desire to learn and explore. The young child's mind is like a sponge and his/her curiosity is at a peak during these early years. This enables the child to form patterns of learning that serve throughout life. Each child's learning experience is unique and tailored to meet his or her needs. The children are able to progress as rapidly as their skills and interests indicate.
WHO IS MARIA MONTESSORI?
Maria Montessori, the first woman M.D. in Italy, was one of the great pioneers in the study of child development. Using her scientific background, she began observing children in Rome. Based on her unbiased observations she developed unique materials, a child-centered environment, and was one of the first persons to revolutionize educational thought by stressing respect for the child, freedom of expression, self-education, and training through use of movement and the senses.
