At this time most parents of preschool children have to decide where their children will go to school in the fall. I would like to take this opportunity to share my experience in Montessori Kindergarten Education. My son has completed his second year of Montessori kindergarten and has been participating since the age of three and a half.
Montessori was chosen for a number of reasons. My eldest son is a bright and curious child with a strong foundation so he can learn the alphabet of shapes and numbers even before he starts school. I was worried it would get bored in a more traditional garden. Montessori’s highly personal program means she is always excited and interested. My son is also a very active child and the Montessori program gives him more freedom of movement while standing or sleeping on the floor as well as many opportunities to play freely inside and outside the classroom.
The biggest thing about Montessori is that it is the children who lead the educational experience. My son’s interests and abilities define his unique educational program so that his classes can overlap but he is not the same as his classmates. It makes him a passionate and motivated student.
The education program offered by Montessori also includes numerous advantages. My son's experience includes the trades, calculation and wisdom, language, and life chops. He regularly impresses our musketeers and family with his knowledge of wisdom, subscribe language, and other areas not traditionally included in preschool programs.
I also like the fact that his classroom includes a wider range of periods so he has musketeers who are both youngish and aged. In addition, he really enjoys having regular contact with the abecedarian- age scholars who serve as both part models and musketeers.
Eventually, as a parent, I can not stress enough the benefits that a program like Montessori offers in terms of life chops. All scholars are anticipated to be responsible for their own particular hygiene as well as conservation and cleaning of the classroom and food areas. While support is offered by grown-ups and aged children, indeed youthful children can learn to clean up after themselves. It has clearly had an impact on my son's amenability and capability to help out at home.
I recommend every parent at least consider Montessori for their child as it's a child- centered literacy approach that can give an excellent foundation for a child's unborn growth and literacy.
