0-3: The setting is calm; mobiles hand above beds to help with focus; muted colors, soft rugs and rocking chairs enhance the peaceful environment.
3-6: the toddler environment consists of areas safe for exploring--furniture is low to the floor and baskets of toys are available for touching. Tiny cups of water help the toddler learn to use their fingers to grasp and poor.
The Montessori elementary student enters a classroom with various structured learning spaces. Natural materials create hands-on opportunities for students to learn math, science, language and geography.
The Montessori "Child of the Earth" experiences a student-centered approach that will enable them to learn time management, exercise freedom of choice, and how to self-regulate within a group.
