INSIGHT

  • Montessori pairs a highly designed environment with child liberty to let children meet real needs and learn practically.

Protect Long Work Periods

  • Montessori's 3-hour work period protects extended concentrated work and deep focus.
  • Extended uninterrupted time builds persistence, problem-solving muscles, and authentic concentration.

  • Montessori reverses the usual reading order: writing via movable letters precedes pencil writing and book reading.
  • This sequence removes barriers and makes literacy intrinsically motivating for young children.
