About our
Kindergarten Program
|
"The
elementary child has reached a new level of development. Before
he was interested in things: working with his hands, learning
their names. Now he is interested mainly in the how and why...
the problem of cause and effect."
- Maria Montessori
Kindergarten Program
Our Montessori Kindergarten program is designed for children 5 - 6 years.
Miss Zulekha has been teaching this class for the
last 9 years. We offer the kindergarten program to students who
wish to continue the Montessori schooling through kindergarten. The program
helps them to master their interest in math, reading and writing before they
move into 1st grade in public and private schools. In these years we have had many students graduate and these
children are excelling in public school in Math, Writing, Reading, and Spelling
Bees and most of these graduates are in accelerated programs in public schools.
