Philosophy
The core principles of Dr. Maria Montessori are incorporated into the philosophy that underpins the Apple Montessori School. Their approach is designed to continuously build on the unique abilities and information each kid learns at each age level. Thanks to the multi-aged classrooms equipped with rich Montessori resources, your kids will be actively involved in their learning process.
They won’t become bored while waiting for others to catch up, so they may move rapidly through a new, complex subject or on to another activity. They may carry out these similar tasks repeatedly until mastery is attained. This may be accomplished without feeling hurried or pressured before one is ready. Their sense of achievement serves as motivation for success.
They believe it is fundamentally important to
- Recognize, nourish, safeguard, and respect each child’s physical, emotional, and intellectual uniqueness. Create a secure atmosphere that fosters each child’s confidence and creativity.
- Give kids the chance to grow according to their abilities and interests.
- Offer educational opportunities and enrichment that will serve as the cornerstone for a lifetime of learning. Offer initiatives that promote autonomy, self-assurance, and social responsibility.
- The child’s sense of achievement serves as reinforcement to promote ongoing success!
