Our Classroom

The Prepared Environment

Our classrooms are spacious, open environments designed to encourage independence and exploration. Low open shelves display a wide range of carefully prepared learning materials, allowing children to freely choose activities that match their interests. Materials made from wood, ceramic, metal, and glass are self-correcting in nature, enabling children to assess their own progress without constant adult intervention. Child-sized furniture can be easily moved, helping children adapt their environment to different purposes.

The Presentation

Learning is introduced through individual or small group presentations. Educators demonstrate activities calmly and precisely, seated beside the child to allow close observation. Once introduced, children are free to repeat and explore the activity independently, gradually mastering both physical skills and abstract concepts such as size, length, or color.

The Work Period

Our full-day program includes structured indoor and outdoor work periods. Children choose their work from classroom shelves and carry it to a table or floor mat of their choice. Each child works independently or with a small group for as long as their interest continues. After completing an activity, materials are returned to their place, encouraging responsibility and order.

Active Participatory Learning

Our curriculum includes Montessori learning areas such as Practical Life, Sensorial exploration, Mathematics, Language development, Culture, and Imaginative Play. Materials are organized so children can independently access and return them, promoting confidence, concentration, and real-life skill development.

Mixed Age Learning

In our mixed-age classrooms, children progress at their own pace. Younger children learn by observing older peers, while older children build leadership, confidence, and responsibility by guiding others.

Teaching Methods

Educators focus on observing each child’s interests and developmental needs rather than directing the entire class. Teachers work at the child’s level, supporting individuals or small groups.

Assessment & Communication

Children’s progress is observed daily using individual goals and developmental checklists. Parents receive regular feedback through meetings, daily conversations, and our Montessori Compass communication app.
