Preschool Program

Our Montessori classrooms for Preschoolers focus on these main areas of progression;

Fine and Gross Motor Skills, Sensory Awareness, Foundational Numerals, Language and Sound Development, Physical Activities and Creative Play.

Nurturing Independence and Motor Skills

In the early years children’s spontaneous learning is of paramount importance. Our Pre-School classrooms provide the tools for students to acquire positive social interactions, independence, and self- confidence which enable them to make smooth transitions to other social situations they will encounter.

Fine/Gross Motor Skills/Life Skills

These life skill activities, though seemingly simple, strengthen each child’s focus, attention, reinforces eye-hand coordination, and develops Fine Motor skills.
Many of these activities isolate one particular skill, allowing children to master each skill one step at a time before advancing to more challenging lessons.
Students enhance their Gross Motor skills through cutting, gluing, coloring, painting, outdoor physical activities, music, and creative movement.

Developing Language, Sensory, and Numeral Skills

Discovery and Sensory Development

Explore the use of their five senses through matching, touching, and discriminating varying objects.
Discover direct experiences through the use of geometrical and mathematical dimensional sensory activities.

Language Development

Introduce letter sounds (as opposed to letter names) and classification of objects and pictures.
Children are also encouraged to sing, memorize songs, poems, etc., as a part of their Pre-Literacy Development.
Books are read to daily for vocabulary enrichment and comprehension.

Numeral Skills

With age-appropriate readiness, children are introduced to recognize numbers using numeral tracing on sandpaper.
After mastery of numeral recognition, the corresponding quantities of same are presented.

Reviews

"I knew instantly that this was the school for my kids. After touring a couple other places I was so impressed with how engaged the kids were yet calm. The staff have been pleasant and encouraging, and the Director has always be prompt/responsive with communication. I am so grateful for this school and for us it has been a great experience."
