About the Curriculum

Practical Life Exercises

Children are naturally drawn to activities they've observed, making practical life exercises pivotal in Dr. Montessori's methodology. These exercises immerse children in daily tasks, fostering community connection and skill development. Purposeful and realistic, they enhance coordination, concentration, and independence, laying a foundation for holistic growth.

Sensorial Material

Children perceive the world through senses, and Montessori's sensorial materials refine this perception. By engaging with colors, shapes, sounds, and textures, children classify impressions and understand abstract concepts. These hands-on experiences develop observation, order, and cognitive skills, nurturing a deep connection with the environment.

Language Material

Language proficiency is paramount in Montessori education, beginning with rich oral experiences and progressing to literacy. Through songs, stories, and phonetics, children build vocabulary and phonetic awareness, laying the groundwork for reading and writing. With a focus on functional language use, children naturally develop confidence and fluency.

Mathematical Material

Montessori harnesses children's innate mathematical curiosity through concrete materials. From counting to operations, children grasp abstract concepts by manipulating tangible objects. This hands-on approach fosters numerical fluency, problem-solving skills, and real-world applications, instilling a love for precision and order.

Culture Area

Montessori embraces cultural diversity, offering immersive experiences in geography, biology, music, art, and drama. Through hands-on exploration and appreciation, children gain a global perspective and cultivate creativity. Language enrichment programs and a holistic sports curriculum further enhance cultural understanding and physical development.

Language (Additional Language Program)

Beacon House Montessori expands linguistic horizons with dynamic Italian immersion. Leveraging the absorbent mind, Italian is integrated into daily life and activities, nurturing language acquisition effortlessly. Through verbal engagement and musical experiences, children embark on a journey of multicultural discovery.

Sports Program

Physical development is integral to holistic growth, and Beacon House Montessori fosters it through non-competitive sports programs. From gross motor skills to ball handling, children engage in purposeful movement with joy. This approach instills confidence, coordination, and a lifelong appreciation for active living.
