Five Areas of Work in the Montessori Classroom.


 

Practical Life

 Practical life exercises instill care for self, for others and
for the environment. These activities include some of the daily routines the
child has already observed at home: preparing food washing dishes, dressing
  oneself and practicing accepted societal role of grace and courtesy. Practical
  life activities serve to enhance muscular coordination, develop powers of
  concentration and control in the child that he will need for other work in the
  classroom.

 Sensorial

 Sensorial materials are designed to develop cognitive skills and
to help children classify and order impressions by touching, seeing, smelling,
tasting, listening, and exploring all the physical properties of their
environment.

 Language

 Language development is vital to all development. The Montessori
classroom is rich in oral language opportunities, allowing the child to
experience conversation, poetry and stories. Children effortlessly link sound to
symbol while tracing sandpaper letters with their fingers thus encouraging the
natural progression of written expression and reading skills.

 Math

 Mathematical activities help children learn and understand the
concepts of math by manipulating concrete materials. The work helps children
acquire a solid understanding of basic math principles and prepares them for
later abstractive reasoning.

 Geography and Cultural Studies

 Geography, biology, botany, zoology, art and music are presented
as extensions of language activities and are integrated into the environment as
part of the curriculum.
