Montessori
Method might be defined as "education by
means of freedom in a prepared
environment". The "prepared environment"
consists of an open and airy classroom with many materials in each
area of learning displayed in an ordered fashion. This ordered
environment strives to create an ordered life. The child learns to
return each "job" to its place before choosing a new
project.
The
pre-school child has the free choice of jobs within the prepared
environment, which creates independence and self-direction. The free
choice is limited to each material not already in use by another
child unless the child using a specific material "invites"
another child to and or share in the project. This develops the
respect of individuals and their rights.
The
elementary child works on a "contract" basis. The child has
the responsibility of scheduling his or her time to complete a given
amount of work in a given amount of time, yet has the freedom of
sequence.
At
Bambini Montessori School a Montessori environment is integrated along with
a traditional learning environment. Through theme based activities
the children are exposed to general and practical knowledge that will
avail the child in the real world (i.e. The 4 seasons,
Transportation, Hygiene). Our graduates leave the school equipped
with a solid foundation in the Montessori method, the ability to read
and write, and general knowledge and cognizance that give them a head
start on the other children. To this date many of our graduates have
excelled on the GATE (gifted and talented education) exam and have
been admitted to this prestigious program. So give your child a head
start in life!
