Nido (infant) community
Toddler Communities
Primary Classrooms
This class, which includes the 3 year olds, 4 year olds, and Charter Kindergarteners, builds on the foundations of the toddler class. Now the child is taking his developing concentration and applying it to work in the areas of Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, and Mathematics. Explosions in learning happen at this age as the child learns to write and read. The foundations of math and geometry are also explored. Conflict resolution is expanded upon and so many “why” questions begin to emerge. The child is fascinated by the real world and in this reality-based environment, they are always encouraged to explore the world. We have 2 primary classes and the maximum enrollment for each class is 29, with 2 – 3 adults depending on class size. One adult is a Montessori trained guide with 1 – 2 assistants.
