Global Montessori goals for our education programs is to help children become responsible, self-motivated learners competent in all areas of life.
Grouping children at important development levels is very important for Montessori education. This helps ensure success for the children. It distinguishes our program from similar educational programs. Three year grouping is an educational unit with a start, middle, and ending. The third year is a capstone year, which culminates not only the academic experience but also social and emotional development.
Montessori Goals for each specific ages
We know certain ages are important in academic and intellectual development. Montessori encourages a child’s emotional and social growth in the third year of sequences.
Students in each transitional year are not considered the youngest of the group; they are the oldest and more mature. We encourage age-appropriate responsibility, and consider them as leaders within their community.  Older children who lead impact the health of the three-year community. The student leaders gain self-confidence. The third year is an import time for academic work from the first two years to sink in as they share knowledge and experience with others in the group. The leaders grow as role models for the younger students. The younger students then aspire to reach similar levels of academic proficiency and community leadership.
Montessori Goals for each classroom
In addition, each of our classrooms encourages the natural appetite of the child by offering age-appropriate materials to satisfy the child’s intense desire for knowledge. A child who acquires the basic skills of reading and mathematics in this natural way has the advantage of beginning their education without pressure, boredom or discouragement. By pursuing his or her individual interests in our classrooms at an early age, they gain an early enthusiasm for learning, which is the key to becoming a truly educated person. The teacher works toward developing the child’s sense of order, concentration and coordination while the Global Montessori program builds on the early childhood experience with the child’s own questions providing the basis for exploration of the world.
The Global Montessori environment promotes self-esteem, encourages fundamental motivation, spontaneous activity and self-education. A Montessori education teaches a child respect for one’s self, others, and the environment. The Montessori method allows each child the ability to obtain a good self-image enabling them to feel secure, independent and self-confident. The fundamental motivation of a Montessori education is to guide the child to grow in knowledge and strength as a whole person and thus gain the practical skills and insight into initiating success in their future life.
