Primary Environment (2 .5 – 6 years) <\/h4><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What is taught in the Primary Montessori classroom?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The term \u2018primary\u2019 in Montessori refers to education for children between the ages of 2.5 and 6 years. The prepared environment of a primary classroom is \u2018scientifically\u2019 designed to support the child who is at an age where he absorbs at ease (like a sponge) and learns at his own individual rhythm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Areas of the prepared environment support the following categories of activities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical Life \u2013 To develop concentration and coordination<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensorial \u2013 To develop and refine the senses<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Math \u2013 To develop the logical mind<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Language \u2013 To interact with society<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Science (Nature) \u2013 To learn about the wonders of the world from botany to zoology<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geography and Culture \u2013 To study the physical forms of the earth and civilizations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arts \u2013 To express the inner self<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physical Education \u2013 To develop and refine control over the body and movements and practice co-operation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Primary children also benefit from their active involvement in caring for themselves and their environment. They are allowed pro-active participation in all festivals, celebrations and programmes conducted in the school – from the unpacking and setting up for the occasion up to the end when everything used has been put away carefully, the children have an active role of responsibilities. The trust extended to every child allows them to blossom and become keen to learn just how everything works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
