About the Montessori Method

The Montessori Method of education was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. It is a child-centred educational approach that is based on scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood. At Kids Fort Child & Out Of School Care in Edmonton, we follow the Montessori program approach to make your children learn better.

The Montessori Method has been successfully tested for over 100 years in diverse cultures all through the world. In this method, the child is viewed as one who is naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully prepared learning environment. The Montessori approach values the human spirit along with an all-round development that includes the social, physical, emotional, and cognitive well-being of the child.

Montessori Approach during the Early Years

During early childhood, Montessori students learn through working with materials and sensory-motor activities. This helps in the development of their cognitive powers through direct experiences, such as hearing, smelling, touching, tasting, and movement.
In the elementary years, child continues to learn with the help of Montessori learning materials. With an interdisciplinary curriculum, the child organizes thinking while passing from the concrete to the abstract.
Due to this organization of facts, information, and figures, the child is better prepared for the world of adolescence. This is a time when emotion and thought evolve into abstract understanding and universal concepts, such as justice, freedom, and equity.
