Our School
We believe that the first six years of life constitute an
incredible period of growth. Our
program seeks to capitalize
on this potential by providing children with ample opportunities for
development.
At Montessori Plus Preschool Academy we provide multiple and varied materials in
which children can explore literacy
and
mathematical concepts. We supply activities that help develop both fine motor
and practical-life skills.
Large-motor
skills are enhanced as we play in the multipurpose area or outside when the
weather permits. The classroom also
contains
toys, puzzles and books that will engage the children.
Our Program
Weekly music and art lessons are provided along with theme-based crafts. Story time, singing, group games and creative drama are part of our curriculum. We send home monthly calendars to inform parents of the social and science concepts we are studying and parents are invited to continue the expansion of these themes at home. In addition, related field trips are scheduled several times throughout the year. We also have class parties that celebrate traditional holidays and we enjoy putting together two concerts, one in December and another in June.

Reading Program
The joy of reading leads to a lifetime of learning and pleasure. With this in mind, our preschool teachers focus on phonetic development through the use of Montessori materials, games, stories and a variety of complementary activities. Sensorial experiences aid in memorization of sound to letter correlation. The children learn to trace or print each letter as it is introduced and then, as progress takes place, they are encouraged to spell words using moveable alphabet letters. As the children gain confidence, they will start to print words, put them into sentences and continue on to make up their own stories.

Each child is valued for his or her own unique personality,
talents and learning styles.
Children are encouraged to
interact with their peers appropriately, to learn independence, self control,
cooperation and communication
skills. Care
is taken to show empathy for one another.
We endeavor to make each child's first experience
