The outdoors offers limitless potential to young children. It becomes a place where they can relax their mind, be inspired, and deep dive into the world of imagination. It’s a place where they can design, create and explore. The possibilities are endless ~ Angela Hanscom
“Movement, or physical activity, is thus an essential factor in intellectual growth, which depends upon the impressions received from outside. Through movement, we come in contact with external reality, and it is through these contacts that we eventually acquire even abstract ideas.” – Maria Montessori.
“In our work, therefore, we have given a name to this part of the mind which is built up by exactitude; we call it the ‘mathematical mind.’”
– Dr Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind
While singing the continents song, the kids will identify continents with a specific colour representing each continent.
They noticed the continents on the Coloured Globe and the World Map are the same colours, giving the child that ‘aha’ moment of recognition.
In a Montessori classroom, we bring the world to the children through real-life experiences.
Culture is a custom of a group of people in society. As we live in a multicultural nation, introduction to different cultures at a young age is important to nurture love and understanding among children.
