Wondering what the curriculum is like in Montessori? Check out this snapshot of the Toddler and Casa Programs from Westbrook Montessori Academy.
Westbrook Montessori Academy is a recent winner of the 2014 Top Choice Award for Best Montessori School in Mississauga. Keep reading for an overview of the curriculum they offer at their Montessori school.
Toddler Programme – 18 months to 2.5 years
Our Mississauga Montessori School’s Toddler program is comprehensive, challenging and diverse. This is a time when the child absorbs effortlessly from his/her surroundings, just by living. This is the period of the 'absorbent mind.' They need to be able to explore and discover. These children are curious about everything and need to touch and manipulate objects in order to learn. They are attracted to everything that stimulates their senses, which they are learning about through their surroundings. Our Daycare in Mississauga offers an introduction to the Montessori Philosophy and Methodology for children from 18 months to 2.5 years of age.
Casa Programme – 2.5 to 6 years
Our Casa programme at Westbrook Montessori Academy is based on the Montessori philosophy that strives to provide each child with an environment in which they learn, and also develop essential work ethics. This in turn, will lead the students to success and prepare them for their future school years. It is recommended that parents compare the difference between the public system’s Full Day Kindergarten programme compared to our education based Casa programme.
The Casa classroom has five areas of concentration: Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics and Culture.
The children explore various areas of study, absorb independent learning, and develop self-esteem and leadership with age appropriate Practical Life activities.
