Montessori of Calabasas & Montessori of Calabasas Too
Dr. Maria Montessori’s pioneering approach to education is rooted in observation and experimentation, harnessing the child’s natural inclination towards self-directed learning. This method honors the child’s unique essence, which Dr. Montessori termed “the child’s true normal nature” in 1907.
– Child-led learning with minimal adult intervention
– Specially designed materials that isolate specific concepts, fostering independent exploration and mastery
– Children learn through concrete, hands-on experiences, developing a deep understanding of abstract ideas
– Unfettered access to materials, allowing children to work at their own pace
– Emphasis on self-correction, encouraging children to embrace mistakes as learning opportunities
To uphold this method, our teachers create an obstacle-free environment, dividing the classroom into logical areas that cater to diverse learning levels:
– Practical Life
– Sensorial
– Language
– Math
– Art
– Music
– Science
– Art
– Mandarin
– Computer
– Dance (Tap & Ballet) – optional
– Soccer – optional
– Spanish – optional
– Music
By embracing the Montessori Method, we empower children to embrace their natural curiosity, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love of learning.”
