Montessori Casa International

Maria Montessori believed that the years from three to six are the most critical period for nurturing a child's natural curiosity and for laying the foundation for all future development. For the preschool aged child, we foster the process of self creation by providing an environment in which the child can develop independently at his or her own pace while still gaining those social, physical, intellectual and emotional skills needed to function at best in society. It is composed of all of the instructive materials developed by Maria Montessori with additional supplemental materials such as music, art and language components. The MCI primary program involves a series of sub sequential, developmental, manipulative and sensorial activities that are designed to ultimately bridge the gap between concrete and abstract learning. The materials contain within them a control of error so the child can self-correct without adult intervention. The children learn through doing, experiencing the joy of individual discovery and mastery on their own terms, at their own speed.
