The early years of a child are undoubtedly the richest, thus, it is necessary to cultivate this time with the utmost care and attention. Observing a child between the ages of three and five, you will see that he is at constant play, meaning that the child is working out, making conscious, something that his unconscious mind has earlier absorbed. Through this game and play, the child explores, creates, and thoroughly examines endless possibilities and problems, which through the virtue of experience, the child learns a task and activity which helps develop sense perception, cognitive skills, and overall manipulative skills. The Montessori Classroom is divided into five main areas of study; Practical Life, Mathematics, Language, Sensorial and Culture. The Montessori Curriculum builds literacy and numerical skills through manipulation of specially designed learning material under the guidance of Montessori trained teachers. It focuses on the child's creative potential, self confidence, motivation to learn, and the drive to work independently while respecting other students. It also emphasizes development of initiative and sense perception through physical freedom and self help instructional material.
