This is a fair question, and it deserves careful consideration. The following article, Why Montessori for the Kindergarten Year, written by Tim Seldin with Dr. Elizabeth Coe offers an excellent answer.
We stress respect and help your child put that to action from the start.
When occasional behavior challenges do arise, we handle them in an age-appropriate way with firm sensitivity. The rules are clear and the consequences fair and consistent. We primarily use redirection.
If the situation escalates, your child is asked to “sit out” until they gain self-control. Physical punishment or shaming is never practiced.
The foundation of all American Montessori Society accredited Montessori programs is adherence to Dr. Maria Montessori’s philosophies regarding the education of the “whole child.” The methods are founded in decades of research, and the results continue to receive acclaim in numerous research studies.
Here are just a few of the differentiators:
- Children initiate their own learning based on their unique learning style, and their exploration is supported by highly trained teachers
- Children engage in independent, self-directed learning as well as in small and large group activities within a multi-age classroom
- The environment of each classroom, including the types and locations of multi-sensory resources and activities, is meticulously organized and maintained to provide optimal learning conditions for students of all ages.
- Children have the freedom to explore their interests, within a carefully monitored structure, with teachers’ help.
- Goals of the program are to help children develop:
- Respect for others and the environment
- Self-esteem and self-confidence
- Self-discipline
- Coordination
- Independence
- Social skills
- Emotional growth
- Cognitive preparation
