Montessori and My Student

Children possess a remarkable ability to absorb the world that surrounds them. Maria Montessori believed the years from three to six are the most critical period for nurturing a child's natural curiosity and for laying the foundation for all future development. Montessori schools provide a carefully planned and stimulating environment which help the child develop an excellent foundation for future learning. The specific goals for the students who attend a Montessori school are to develop within each student a positive attitude toward school, help develop self-confidence, assist in building a habit of concentration, foster an abiding curiosity, develop habits of initiative and persistence, to foster inner security and a sense of order. For the older student, this framework is used to maintain academic competency.
