Continuing with Montessori education through kindergarten will provide your child a superior academic advantage. Montessori classrooms offer hands-on learning materials that help children grasp abstract concepts through concrete experiences. Montessori math materials, for example, the Golden beads, help children develop a deep understanding of numbers and the decimal system. These tactile learning experiences ensure that children are not just memorizing facts, but are comprehending the underlying concepts. This solid foundation is invaluable in kindergarten and first grade, where more abstract thinking and problem-solving skills are required. Our program offers kindergarteners a sensorial impression of abstract concepts, such as mathematics and language development, that become the foundation for a lifetime of understanding, while many public schools have fallen into a pattern of giving children exercises and drills that result in their getting answers on tests that “look” like understanding. Montessori is focused on teaching for understanding. Montessori children tend to never lose their thirst for knowledge and their desire to learn more.
Furthermore, studies of Montessori educated students have shown and proven that Montessori students’ rates of learning are significantly higher in the areas of their overall interest in learning, independence, interpersonal relationships, leadership and learning ability. This research also provides clear evidence that Montessori students outperform students in traditional academic programs. So why not give your child the best foundation possible?
