  Here Are Our Basic Fundamentals

 

                                                                                                                        Respect and Nurture the Child

                             

Respecting and nurturing your child's dignity and ability is a

critical element in our program. In Starting Point Montessori

classrooms our directresses address the specific needs of your

child who learns through work, play and practice with hands on

materials. Our teachers are clearly aware of your child's

developmental needs and introduces new challenges and materials

accordingly.

 

 

 

 

 

    

                    

 

Create A Learning Environment

 

Our classrooms are very busy places, indeed. Each is designed so

that your child can access materials easily, selecting and replacing

them at will. Always clean and tidy, our classrooms are also quieter

than traditional classrooms because children choose their own

activities. They remain interested and engaged in what they are

learning and accomplishing. Our directresses are always nearby,

observing the children and preparing the next lesson or question.

Children develop a love of learning that shines through as they treat

their materials with care returning each apparatus to its proper place

at the end of each activity.

 

Allow The Child To Learn At Their Own Pace

 

Montessori School children learn  individually and are encouraged to 

work at their own pace. We help every child discover and learn from

his and her own individual experiences. Our directresses observe your

child as he or she works and quietly offer guidance along the way.

As your child masters an exercise the director or directress guides him

or her to the next activity and the appropriate next challenge.

                             

 

Ask The Right Questions

 

Every child needs a special guide for his or her self led journey of learning.

Our teachers called directors and directresses are skilled at directing

the journey by asking questions rather than providing answers. This unique

approach is the result of hundreds of hours of specialized training. Each director

and directress are experienced at helping children build self -esteem and

self confidence through individual discovery. Our environment and method

provides the discipline. Our teachers provide the guidance.

 

Prepare For A Lifetime of Learning

                             

Our goal is simple we prepare children for a lifetime of creative thinking and

learning. Our directresses are committed to insuring that your child receives a broad academic education in the context of a carefully planned, stimulating environment. Through our proven methods we help children develop the essential foundation, habits,

attitudes, skills and ideas that will shape the way they discover, learn, 

and succeed in life.
