Description: Montessori education is designed to help children with their task of inner construction as they grow from childhood to maturity. It succeeds because it draws its principles from the natural development of the child. The inherent flexibility allows the method to adapt to the needs of the individual, regardless of the level of ability, learning style or social maturity. The Montessori approach offers a broad vision of education as an aid to life. It is the task of each child to develop himself into as complete a human being as possible. Nature has endowed young children with absorbent minds and acute sensitivities, allowing them to acquire certain kinds of knowledge and abilities more wholly before age six, than at any time later life. How successfully each child accomplishes this task in the early years has great bearing not only on the amount of knowledge and skill he will have at his command in later years, but, more importantly, the attitudes toward himself, his world, and learning that he embraces. Montessori education is based on a heart-felt respect for this task of the child, and on a careful observation of the process by which it is accomplished. What we offer is a thoughtful response to this natural unfolding so that, in each case, it can be as successful and complete as possible. Discovering the joys of learning and developing social and intellectual discipline lay the foundation for a happy, productive life. The children develop an appreciation for the world while becoming responsible human beings and active members of a harmonious society.Montessori education achieves these goals, by supporting the following truths about learning, which are based on scientific observation.
