Prioritizing Education- Your Child’s Right

As your child grows and reaches the pre-school age, choosing the right education system becomes a priority. With all the different education forums available these days, this can be a challenging task. Ultimately, the decision is up to you. One method of study that is often preferred and recommended by teachers, trainers and researchers alike is the Montessori Method.

Choosing Montessori- the Upsides

If you are choosing the Montessori Method of study for your child, here are a few reasons why you may just have chosen an amazing method that’s changing education across the globe:

Pays special attention to developmental stages: The Montessori Method is mainly for children from the ages of 3 to 5. At 3 years old, the focus is emphasized on toning language skills, 4-year-olds focus on motor skills and getting through everyday activities while 5-year-olds are taught more community-based skills through trips and social activities.

Child centered learning: Unlike many other methods, the Montessori Method keeps each child’s needs and abilities in mind while trying to encourage them to explore and discover their talents on an individual as well as group basis.

Children learn naturally: Even though the Montessori Method is open to innovative methods to ensure that children are having a good time learning, there are rules of behavior that the children pick up on as they move along.

Creativity: Montessori pushes for creativity and puts a constant emphasis on praising the children and encouraging them to develop their individual creativity.

Facilitating teachers: Teachers in the Montessori system act as guides rather than determiners of exactly what the content should look like. They help the children pick up on learning techniques, which they can use to learn on their own, rather than constantly being dependent on the teachers.

Learning through play: The children help each other by playing together and learning in groups while having a good time. This greatly enhances their social skills while developing their rate of comprehending education contents.

Hands on learning: Children are taught through hands on activities and involvement.  Teaching is not only about the typical board and marker nor is it about the latest technological uses. Children are taught through a combination of both conventional as well as old-school methods, which keeps hands on learning at a focal point.
