LEARNING THROUGH ALL SENSES:
Sensory exploration is fundamental to the Montessori approach. Our classrooms are divided into distinct learning areas like Practical Life, Sensorial, Language Arts, Math, and Culture. These areas provide materials that engage all the senses – visual, tactile, olfactory, auditory, and kinesthetic – fostering a deeper understanding of the world around them.
FREEDOM TO EXPLORE:
The Montessori classroom is a vibrant learning laboratory. Children have freedom within limits to explore, discover, and choose their own work. This fosters a sense of ownership and intrinsic motivation in their learning journey.
LEARNING AT THEIR OWN PACE:
Montessori education respects each child's individual development. The diverse materials and activities cater to a wide range of learning styles and developmental stages. Children progress at their own pace, mastering concepts before moving on.
SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT, GRACE & COURTESY:
The Montessori environment encourages collaboration and social interaction. Children learn to work independently, with a friend, or in small groups. Our focus on grace and courtesy equips them with the tools to navigate social situations effectively.
THE ROLE OF THE MONTESSORI TEACHER:
Our highly trained teachers act as facilitators, observing each child's progress and tailoring their approach accordingly. They utilize detailed learning sequences for various materials and meticulously document children's development for regular discussions with parents.
STRONG PARENT-TEACHER PARTNERSHIPS:
At Springfield Montessori, we believe parental involvement is key to a child's success. We foster open communication through regular parent-teacher conferences, encouraging questions and discussions about your child's progress. Your active participation ensures a consistent learning experience for your child, both at school and at home.
Welcome to Springfield Montessori, where your child's natural curiosity can blossom!
