Education for life

Montessori is an educational method designed to meet the needs of the life of the growing child.  Montessori Education is an established methodology in which trained adults aid the child as he grows and develops.  Montessori Environments promote self-development allowing the child to function as independently as possible. 

 

Montessori education is not a causative education.  It is based upon psychological and physical characteristics of development.  The child goes through four distinctive planes of development.  The four planes of development can be defined as such as

1. Infancy, 0-6 years of age

2. Childhood, 6-12 years of age

3. Adolescence, 12-18 years of age

4. Maturity, 18-24 years of age
