Throughout a child’s life, education has played a significant role, starting from pre-school to university and sometimes even beyond. Children can become upstanding citizens and make positive contributions to society if they are given the tools to build the foundation for their future. The goal of the Montessori Education system is to develop the whole person… someone who is more than just their test scores.

Early Childhood Education

Early education is centered around the child, according to the Montessori education system invented by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 1900s. A unique aspect of the program is the use of child-driven activities (work), the use of classrooms with children of varying ages, and the promotion of independence among the students by the teachers. This system focuses on making sure that education promotes the development of children—socially, emotionally, physically, and academically—holistically.

Providing a nurturing environment for your child’s development and early education is part of our mission at Springdale Academy, a certified Montessori school. Through discovery and exploration, we would like to restore a sense of pleasure and passion for learning and move away from the nervousness that accompanies academic accomplishments. The educational experience of a child should transcend academics. It should assist them in developing more confidence, independence, self-motivation, and a caring attitude.

With advanced degrees and extensive experience, teachers from schools imparting Montessori education lead classrooms in a prepared environment. They are among the most creative and nurturing people in society. The staff at Springdale Academy facilitates kids’ quests for self-learning by establishing an environment that inspires creativity and exploration. Moreover, our teachers can evaluate and chaperone each child through a flexible curriculum that focuses on cognitive development and self-correction through a small teacher-to-student ratio. It is a life-changing experience to be a part of a system that prioritizes each child as an individual and acknowledges that each of these children can make a significant difference and transform the world in their distinctive manner.

Montessori Education Classroom @ The Springdale Academy

The typical classroom at Springdale Academy is spacious and lit by natural light. Children can select from a variety of activity stations throughout the day at this facility. Our certified teachers lead these stations while moving from group to group rather than manning the front. The accessibility of a sensory-based environment is vital as children influence their understanding through the use of learning aids. Because of this, it promotes children’s distinct personalities, recognizes their talents, and gives them the freedom to learn and develop at their own rate. Uninterrupted work periods help children focus, concentrate, and maintain discipline while also enhancing self-control and regulation.

Exploration and discovery are interwoven throughout the Montessori curriculum as a child progresses. As a result, it becomes driven by a child’s need to understand “why” something is going on. Along with traditional core subjects like math, science, reading, and writing, it includes discussions about society and nature. This gives the children the opportunity to question why things are as they are. Additionally, the children are taught ideas such as time management and keeping personal spaces clean as part of their accountability curriculum.

Activity must lie in the phenomenon

The Montessori education system emphasizes the creation of classrooms for children of various ages who are in the same developmental stage and age range. Students remain in the same class for an entire three-year cycle. These children must work together to solve problems and learn new skills. As time passes, older students have the opportunity to become mentors to their younger classmates, which allows them to develop camaraderie, empathy, patience, and leadership skills. It also helps children understand the importance of cultural diversity while teaching them constructive conflict resolution strategies. This underlines the value of interacting with people from various backgrounds and perspectives. Furthermore, the three-year cycle within a classroom contributes to a more sustainable student and teacher experience by reducing the effort and energy required to adjust to a new classroom, teachers, and peers at the start of a new school year.

The educational experience at Springdale Academy allows students to learn at their own pace and in their own way. This enables them to become passionate about education and develop a lifelong curiosity about the world around them. Through a Montessori education, your child will learn advanced literacy and math skills that can be applied in several contexts. These include reading and understanding abstract and practical mathematical concepts.

Building cordial relationships between students and teachers requires an understanding of why children behave in particular ways and providing them with developmental opportunities that satisfy their inner drives. At Springdale Academy, having fun while learning, respecting, and caring for one another and their surroundings is the norm. This, in our opinion, is the core of becoming ready for real-world existence.
