Lower Elementary:  Ages 6 to 9 years  

Welcome to our Lower Elementary Montessori Classroom, a dynamic learning community where children ages six to nine embark on a journey of intellectual exploration, collaboration, and discovery. Rooted in the renowned Montessori philosophy, our program offers a rich educational experience that fosters a lifelong passion for learning and a deep sense of responsibility towards oneself, others, and the world. 

In our carefully prepared environment, children engage in purposeful work across a diverse range of subjects, including language arts, mathematics, geometry, history, geography, science, and the arts. Through hands-on exploration, experiential learning, and guided inquiry, students develop a deep understanding of core educational concepts and acquire essential skills that prepare them for academic and life success.  

Central to the Montessori approach is the recognition of each child as a unique individual with their own interests, strengths, and learning styles. Our Montessori-trained educators serve as knowledgeable guides, nurturing each child’s intellectual curiosity, creativity, and intrinsic motivation. By providing a balance of freedom and structure, students are empowered to take ownership of their learning, pursue their passions, and reach their full potential. 

In our mixed-age classroom setting, older students mentor and support younger peers, fostering a sense of community, collaboration, and mutual respect. Through peer-to-peer interaction, cooperative projects, and group discussions, students develop essential social-emotional skills such as empathy, communication, conflict resolution, and leadership. 

Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to inspire a love of learning and a deep appreciation for the interconnectedness of knowledge. Through interdisciplinary studies, real-world connections, and hands-on experiences, students develop an understanding of the world and their place within it. Field trips, guest speakers, and community service projects further enrich the learning experience, providing opportunities for students to apply their knowledge and skills in meaningful ways. 

At our Lower Elementary Montessori Classroom, we strive to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child feels valued, supported, and inspired to reach their highest potential. We invite you to explore our website to learn more about our program, our dedicated educators, and the transformative experiences awaiting your child.
