Environment Plus Liberty
- Montessori pairs a highly designed environment with child liberty to let children meet real needs and learn practically.
- The method combines tiny furniture, practical-life tasks, and sequenced learning materials to ignite early interest and skill-building.
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.
