How is a Montessori school different?
A Montessori preschool classroom is a specially prepared environment deigned to allow the child to explore the many areas essential to his development during this crucial time. It is equipped with well-made, attractive materials designed by Dr. Montessori and each having a specific purpose. It is a child-centered environment based on a profound respect for children. Each child works individually at his own pace and is allowed a large measure of independence. This forms the basis for self-discipline. As each child successfully completes the self-correcting exercises, he develops confidence in his ability.
