Casa/Pre-School Program
The goal of the Casa/Pre-School program is the development of the whole child. We strive to develop the children's self-esteem and to cultivate their natural desire to learn by fixing their attention on a task they are performing with their hands.
Using the Montessori Method of Education, the child’s development and growth are achieved through exercises in:
- Practical Life
- Sensorial Education
- Language Arts
- Mathematics
- Arts (Music, Visual Art)
- Physical Education
- French
- Cultural Studies
The Montessori classroom is based on "freedom of movement", where the teacher is a guide, introducing the materials appropriate to each child's individual abilities and interests. The "Prepared Environment" is organized to meet all children's developmental needs: freedom, purposeful activity and cultural involvement. The whole Montessori environment is designed to complement the activities and the children's participation in them. The classrooms are furnished with child-size furnishings, floor, tablemats, and open shelving for apparatus, materials and books.
Each apparatus enables the children to attain a determined goal and achieve true independence, self-confidence, self-control, muscular co-ordination, good concentration skills and a sense of order.
The Montessori program accommodates different abilities, thus avoiding boredom. It starts with concrete hands-on activities, which give a solid grounding for later abstractions.
