Integration of Montessori into Mainstream 

Welcome to a day in the life of our integrated kindergarten teaching method where we blend the principles of Montessori education with mainstream approaches to provide a holistic learning experience for our young learners.

Starting with Mindfulness and Prayer

Our day begins with a moment of mindfulness and prayer, setting a positive and calm tone for our students. This practice, inspired by Montessori ideals of respect and reflection, helps our children connect with their inner selves and cultivate a sense of gratitude.

Rhymes: A Multisensory Learning Experience

Rhymes are not just fun songs but essential tools for cognitive development. In our programme, we integrate Montessori’s hands-on approach with mainstream techniques to teach rhymes. Through tactile experiences like sandpaper tracing and rhythmic movements, we help children understand language mechanics while enhancing memory and critical thinking skills.

Mathematics: Hands-On Numerical Exploration

Our math curriculum combines Montessori materials like beads and number rods with mainstream methods such as flashcards. This integration allows children to explore numerical concepts through concrete experiences and visual aids, fostering a deep understanding of numbers, shapes, and patterns.

Language and Literacy: Engaging with Alphabets and Words

In the realm of language and literacy, we blend Montessori’s emphasis on tactile learning with mainstream practices. Children learn alphabets through activities like sandpaper tracing and clay modelling, enhancing their letter recognition and phonetic understanding while promoting fine motor skills.

EVS (Environmental Studies): Discovering the World Together

Our thematic units in Environmental Studies integrate Montessori’s hands-on exploration with mainstream activities. Children learn about their environment through sensory experiences like nature walks, gardening, and art projects, fostering a deep connection with nature and the world around them.

Social-Emotional Development: Cultivating Empathy and Resilience

Our integrated approach to social-emotional development combines Montessori’s focus on independence and self-regulation with mainstream strategies for promoting social skills. Through collaborative activities, role-playing, and problem-solving tasks, children learn empathy, cooperation, and emotional resilience.

Conclusion

A balanced approach to Holistic Education In conclusion, our integration of Montessori and the mainstream programme, offers a balanced approach to holistic education. By combining the best of both worlds, we create a nurturing environment where children develop academically, socially, and emotionally. Join us in nurturing young minds and laying the foundation for a lifelong love of learning and growth
