📚 Curriculum
Through careful observations, Montessori Guides will guide each child as he /she enters into various special developmental periods, and provide relevant materials that feed his / her interest. Each child will experience explosive growth in different areas of academic learning at their own pace and has an individualized lesson plan that's developmentally appropriate.
🎯 Teaching Approach
Our Guidepost Montessori prepared environment is supportive and inclusive. Children choose their work and work independently, with partners or in small groups, learning to set goals, challenge themselves, and tackle complex problems. Each child practices leadership and responsibility, playing a role as a mentor to younger students, caring for the school environment, and engaging meaningfully to resolve classroom issues. We take full advantage of the Montessori three-hour work cycle, where children choose and organize their own work. Children come to create, understand, structure, and iterate their learning goals – to work both independently and collaboratively – and to persist in difficult thinking and creative work.
