What is Montessori Education?
Montessori is a method of education that is based on self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play. In Montessori classrooms children make creative choices in their learning, while the classroom and the teacher offer age-appropriate activities to guide the process. Children work in groups and individually to discover and explore knowledge of the world and to develop their maximum potential Montessori classrooms are beautifully crafted environments designed to meet the needs of children in a specific age range. Dr. Maria Montessori discovered that experiential learning in this type of classroom led to a deeper understanding of language, mathematics, science, music, social interactions and much more. Most Montessori classrooms are secular in nature, although the Montessori educational method can be integrated successfully into a faith-based program. Every material in a Montessori classroom supports an aspect of child development, creating a match between the child’s natural interests and the available activities. Children can learn through their own experience and at their own pace. They can respond at any moment to the natural curiosities that exist in all humans and build a solid foundation for life-long learning
Benefits Of An Integrated Traditional & Montessori Education
This blending of learning styles will benefit your child in the following ways:
- Creativity: Childhood is a beautiful stage where young people learn how to interact not only with each other but with visuals and sound. At Bolster Juniors, art and music are essential and the Montessori-inspired aspects of the curriculum not only stimulate children's minds but also allows them to be imaginative.
- Discovery & Handling: Sometimes, investigation and manipulation of a child's surroundings within a nurturing environment are the best way for a child to study. Through theme-related materials and engagement with technology, students are able to discover information on their own.
- Purposeful Activity: There is no "busy work" at Bolster Juniors, every task leads the student to reach a clear objective. This concept is included in the academy's Physical Education classes, and the children take part in exciting, yet meaningful physical activities that promote wellness.
- Child-Centered Learning: Emphasize the Montessori principle of fostering independence and catering to each child’s unique developmental needs. Holistic Development: Focus on the development of the whole child, including intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth.
- Community Engagement: Stress the importance of a collaborative community involving educators, parents, and students.
- Prepared Environment: Highlight the significance of a thoughtfully prepared environment that supports self-directed learning.
- Lifelong Learning: Promote the idea of nurturing lifelong learners who are equipped to adapt and thrive in a dynamic world.
