About
The Montessori Method
The Montessori education is not a system of teaching,
but a method of helping children in the total development of their personality
during the fundamental period of
development. The child must have freedom in order to develop his or her
personality to the fullest - a freedom that is achieved through work,
order, and self-discipline.
The world of the child is full of sights and sounds which first appear
chaotic. From this chaos, the child must gradually create order, and
learn to distinguish among
the impressions that assail his senses, slowly but surely gaining mastery
of himself and his environment. We at Countryside Montessori school have
designed a preschool and kindergarten program
that incorporates the ideals of learning for that age group.
Our goals:
-
To stimulate children to development socially, emotionally, intellectually, and physically towards their full potential.
-
To allow children the freedom to learn at their own pace in an atmosphere of respect and understanding of individual differences.
-
To encourage children to experience the joy of learning and the intrinsic satisfaction that comes with the mastery of concepts and fundamental skills through creative use of attractive, self -correcting materials and activities.
-
To capitalize on their natural curiosity and guide their energies to enhance their sensory - motor and perceptual skills, language ability, creativity and social development by caring, well-trained staff.
