A highly “prepared environment” is essential to facilitating the combination of choice and self-discipline that is the hallmark of Montessori education. Our teachers take considerable time and care to create an environment that sparks a child’s natural curiosity.
La Printaniere Montessori classrooms are equipped for:
Concrete, multi-sensory learning experiences using genuine Montessori materials and their extensions
Individual and small group lessons
Scheduling that allows for extended, uninterrupted work cycles
Self-directed learning
Freedom within limits
Respect for one other and the environment
To assist a child we must first provide him with an environment which will enable him to develop freely.
