The Montessori Curriculum encompasses five key elements to educating children: Practical Life, Sensorial, Cultural, Mathematics & Language.
We have a flow to our school days. Children thrive when they know what to expect and lead each other as they learn and develop with Montessori teaching.
Country Garden Montessori School philosophy & curriculum guide children to freely learn and acquire inner discipline from exposure to both physical and mental order. Kindergarteners & preschoolers developing habits of order, concentration, perseverance and thoroughness established in the early years will provide a confident and competent learner in later years.

There are several types of learning styles commonly observed in children. Each child may have a dominant learning style or a combination of styles that work best for them. Here are the 3 main types:
These children learn best by seeing. They understand and retain information better if itās presented in visual aids such as pictures, diagrams, charts, and written information to understand and retain concepts.
Auditory learners understand and retain information best by listening. They benefit from discussions, verbal instructions, music, or storytelling to grasp new ideas.
Kinesthetic or tactile learners understand best by doing. They prefer hands-on activities, physical movement, and exploration. In a Montessori setting, they thrive with hands-on materials that they can touch, manipulate, and experiment with.
Our day starts with Circle Time, where we come together as a group. Afterward, the children engage in a variety of lessons during the work period, followed by snack time. If time allows, we continue with a second work cycle. The morning ends with outdoor play on the playground, before dismissal.
Parents take turns providing snacks for the class throughout the school year, on a rotating basis.
Each year varies. But we normally have between 14 ā 16 children each day.

Montessori promotes self-discipline by encouraging children to make choices, experience natural consequences, and resolve conflicts in a peaceful way, with teacher guidance when needed.
Montessori focuses on child-centered learning. Children are allowed to explore at their own pace, with hands-on materials. Teachers act as guides in following the progress of the child. Montessori fosters independence, creativity, and critical thinking.
Montessori classrooms have mixed-age groups, allowing older children to mentor younger ones, fostering collaboration, empathy, and communication among peers. The age groups are toddler, childrenās house (ages 3-6), lower elementary (ages 6-9), upper elementary (ages 9-12), and middle school.
Drop off is between 8:30 and 8:45 in the morning.
Montessori classrooms are designed to accommodate various learning styles. Each child is given individual attention based on their developmental needs. Teachers observe and follow the child so lessons can be adapted to meet the childās needs.
