Montessori Method
The Montessori methodology was developed over a century ago by an Italian Physician and an educator Dr. Maria Montessori. She believed that children learn naturally by developing their inquisitive nature. Montessori education involves self-directed activities and is prominently impactful in early childhood. An interesting characteristic of Montessori education lies in its multi-age prepared environment.

Exercises of Practical Life
The Exercises of Practical Life curriculum in Montessori provides a scope and sequence for everyday practices like chopping vegetables, dressing oneself, cleaning, courtesies and more. The activities in Exercises of Practical life helps your child to become more independent and to gain life skills.
Sensorial
The sensorial activities in the Montessori Environment helps your child in developing the six senses – Sight (Visual), Touch (tactile), Smell (olfactory), Taste (gustatory), Sound (auditory), Stereognostic (kinesthetic), Sensorial material isolates one defining quality such as colour, weight, shape, texture, size, sound, smell and taste.
Language
The development of language in the child begins at birth. In the Montessori Environment, children are introduced to vocabulary by naming the objects in the environments. The Montessori language approach is through phonetics, where the sounds of each letter is given to children which help them in their reading skills.
Arithmetic
Children learn to organize numbers in their mind and understand what numbers mean in the real sense. The Montessori Math includes the development of concepts such as numeration, place value, fractions and the basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division using numbers up to 9999.
Science
Through the Science curriculum, children are introduced to the world of plants and animals, and they are taught to explore and compare their similarities and differences. By engaging with the natural world in this way, children gain knowledge in both geography and biology.
Maria Montessori’s Message
Dr. Maria Montessori’s Vision was to create a child centred educational approach that fostered independent, Self-motivated and Curious learners.
Her vision included:
- Self-directed learning- Children take ownership of their learning, exploring and discovering concepts at their own pace.

- Mixed age classrooms-Children of different ages learn together, encouraging socialization and community building.
- Uninterrupted work periods- Children work independently for extended periods developing concentration, focus and self-discipline.
- Trained observant Teachers-Teachers observe, guide and support children rather than dictating their learning.
- Prepared Environment-The classroom environment is carefully designed to promote exploration, movement and discovery.
- Emphasis on practical life skills-Children develop everyday skills like cooking, cleaning and care of environment, promoting independence and self-care.
- Respect for the child- Children are treated with dignity, respect and empathy, fostering a positive self-image and emotional well-being.
