Pre-Primary Program: Shaping Early Explorers (Ages 2.5-4)
In tune with Maria Montessori’s profound insights into a child’s earliest years, our Pre-Primary classrooms are thoughtfully crafted to create a rich and organized environment, fostering exploration and hands-on learning for children aged 2.5 to 4. We prioritize independence, social awareness, and motor skill development to lay a strong foundation for their educational journey.
Holistic Goals for Growing Minds:
Our goals extend beyond traditional education. We aim for positive separation, cultivating independence, providing a language-rich setting, offering practical life lessons, and nurturing a community built on respect. This holistic approach is the cornerstone of our Pre-Primary program, ensuring a well-rounded early education experience.
Hands-On Learning in a Tailored Environment:
Within an environment abundant in physical, sensorial, intellectual, and social learning, custom-made, child-sized elements support the biological need of our youngest learners to move and develop gross motor skills. In our Pre-Primary classrooms, students actively engage in hands-on experiences like preparing simple snacks, caring for plants and classroom pets, moving lightweight chairs, rolling up mats, and contributing to the cleanliness of the classroom. This hands-on approach fosters independence, offering a sense of accomplishment and autonomy.
Language Enrichment and Practical Life:
Our approach to language development is dynamic, incorporating real objects, sound cards, songs, stories, and conversations during the sensitive period of language development. Practical life experiences further enhance movement and self-help skills, ensuring a gradual and sensitive approach tailored to our youngest learners.
Everyday Life Skills:
Children in our Pre-Primary classrooms actively participate in practical life activities, immersing themselves in tasks like folding napkins, pouring liquids, and engaging in everyday chores. These seemingly simple yet essential activities are carefully designed to develop fine and gross motor skills, enhance coordination, and instill a sense of order and responsibility.
Beyond Daycare: Nurturing Young Minds:
Sending your child to our Pre-Primary program is not just about daycare; it’s an investment in their early development. Unlike traditional settings, we provide a varied and stimulating environment aligned with Dr. Montessori’s observations, creating platforms for future learning. These crucial early years are not just a phase; they are the building blocks for a lifetime of curiosity, independence, and a love for learning that lasts. Choose a Montessori education for your child, where exploration, discovery, and hands-on learning are at the heart of their educational journey.
