A Time To Discover

Maria Montessori believed that movement and learning are inseparable, and this principle is central to our Kindergarten program. At this age, children use their entire bodies and senses to explore and absorb knowledge, and we dedicate our largest classroom to accommodate the specific Montessori materials and high-energy activities needed for our 5 to 6-year-olds. This dynamic, age-appropriate environment encourages active participation while fostering a deep sense of independence and joy in learning.

The Kindergarten program builds on the foundations established in the earlier years, offering a continuation of the Montessori curriculum while incorporating an interdisciplinary teaching approach. Subjects such as science, geography, history, music, art, Spanish, cooking, and cultural diversity are integrated into language and math studies, creating a rich, holistic learning experience. This interdisciplinary approach not only deepens their understanding of each subject but also encourages creativity and critical thinking as children see the connections between different areas of knowledge.

Our teachers focus on each child’s unique developmental stage, providing targeted learning experiences during their sensitive periods—windows of time when children are most receptive to acquiring specific skills. These sensitive periods allow us to guide children in mastering key concepts with enthusiasm and ease. In our Kindergarten program, children develop social-emotional skills as they experience a strong sense of community, engage in purposeful activities, and continue to build concentration, confidence, and self-reliance. With the freedom to move and choose activities, children thrive in a teacher-guided environment where their individual learning needs are met, and they develop a lifelong love for learning. Our Kindergarten students eagerly look forward to coming to school, where their growth is nurtured in a vibrant, supportive atmosphere.
