The Montessori approach recognizes that children have a natural inclination to explore and discover, and our prepared environment supports their individual growth and development. By incorporating Kingdom values into this framework, we provide children with an understanding of their identity as sons and daughters of God as they navigate their early years in a culture that is in an identity crisis.

 One of the significant benefits of a Children’s House area in a Montessori school with Christian-based faith is the integration of Kingdom principles into the curriculum. Through stories, discussions, and age-appropriate lessons, children learn about Jesus’ teachings, the power of God and values such as love, kindness, and forgiveness, and the importance of living a life guided by the Holy Spirit. These teachings shape their character, promote empathy and respect for others, and help children develop a sense of purpose and a personal relationship with Jesus.

 Students direct their own activities, building knowledge, confidence and social skills along the way. Teachers empower children to use all the materials available to them, which include practical life activities, geography, literacy, sensorial and mathematics.

Ignite your child’s passion for learning

Students direct their own activities, building knowledge, confidence and social skills along the way. Teachers empower children to use all the materials available to them, which range from practical life activities to geography to mathematics.

Practical Life activities

In the Montessori classroom ignite your child’s enthusiasm by engaging them in meaningful and purposeful tasks using real tools. These hands-on experiences empower children to recognize and embrace their own capabilities and competence.

Mathematics

Your child will embark on an exciting mathematical journey filled with hands-on activities and engaging materials. From counting and recognizing numbers to exploring geometric shapes and patterns, our carefully designed curriculum will spark their curiosity and ignite a love for numbers. Through manipulative materials and interactive games, your child will develop a strong foundation in basic math concepts, problem-solving skills, and logical thinking.

Literacy

Your child will learn to associate each phonetic sound with its corresponding letter, and trace the letter to internalize the movements made in writing. Children are reading and writing at age 4, and mastering the component steps even earlier.

Sensorial

Our carefully designed materials and activities will engage their senses of sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing, allowing them to refine their perceptions and develop a keen sense of observation. From exploring color gradients to identifying geometric shapes, from distinguishing different textures to matching scents, your child will develop their sensory discrimination skills and lay a strong foundation for further cognitive and intellectual growth.

Geography

Our Montessori guides will guide our children in observing, questioning, and discovering the wonders of the world around them, igniting their innate curiosity and nurturing their passion for lifelong learning.

Program

Achieving outstanding academic performance

Through individual lessons with the teacher and during their own independent investigation, children gain advanced knowledge of math, science, geography, botany, language, and culture. Each area of the curriculum comes with enticing, sequenced materials, which are designed to appeal to the young child’s interests and stage of cognitive development.

Independence and expert guidance

Children benefit from personalized instruction that seamlessly integrates and progresses through the comprehensive Children’s House curriculum. Moreover, ample opportunities are provided for independent exploration and self-directed learning, as the teacher guides them in utilizing the educational materials and encourages them to take ownership of their work and its corrections.

Developing intelligence and increasing confidence

In addition to academic work, children are invited to take part in various practical activities, like setting the table for lunch and taking care of the classroom plants. These activities inspire children with real-world tasks and tools, helping them develop key executive function skills as they start to see themselves as capable and competent.

Encouraging literacy skills

Rather than impose a strict schedule on the children, Christian Montessori Academy staff wait for the moment when each child naturally shows an insatiable thirst to read and write. Up to that point, children are given activities which build the foundations of literacy without causing frustration or fatigue. This allows your child to learn reading and writing with confidence and joy.

A vibrant social environment

Within the Children’s House, students mutually inspire and support one another, fostering a sense of camaraderie. Younger students seek guidance from their older peers, while the older ones cultivate leadership skills by assisting their younger counterparts. Additionally, our staff provide lessons on social etiquette, such as offering snacks to guests or politely declining an offer. This nurturing atmosphere cultivates a harmonious community where children develop their own microcosm of society.

Maintaining strong connections between teachers and families

Teachers and families establish deep connections. Your child’s teacher will regularly communicate with you, providing updates on your child’s progress and extending invitations for you to join in on special occasions, such as birthdays and cultural events. Additionally, you will receive daily reports detailing your child’s routines and educational engagements, ensuring you stay informed and involved in their journey.
