Ways to support the Haven Montessori Community!

Age Group Communities

The Nido (Infant) Community is for infants 3 months to 12/15 months. This class offers a safe and beautiful environment for infants to have freedom of movement and exploration. All manipulatives in this environment are made of natural materials, and the infants are encouraged to explore and experience the world around them independently with much love and encouragement.

The toddler community is for children 12/15 months to 3 years. These classes engage the now mobile child with real work. Even at this early age, the child can be seen washing dishes and mopping floors. A heavy emphasis is put on language as the child is in a sensitive period for learning words and expressive communication. All work in this class has the ultimate goal of enjoyment and the development of concentration.

This class, which includes 3 year olds, 4 year olds and Charter Kindergarteners, builds on the foundations of the toddler class. Now the child is taking his developing concentration and applying it to work in the areas of Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, and Mathematics. Explosions in learning happen at this age as the child learns to write and read. The foundations of math and geometry are also explored.

When the children reach elementary age, their psychological characteristics change. They become more social beings, they are interested in justice and moral values, developing their sense of right and wrong, and they experience great mental growth. Maria Montessori calls this the second plane of development. The child changes from a concrete, absorbent, sensorial learner to a child with a reasoning mind and a child who can abstract. We make use of these changes by opening up our curriculum with great lessons that build a framework of knowledge. The children hear stories about the creation of our earth, the evolution of life from the beginning of time, the coming of man, the emergence of writing, geometry, numbers and math. Subjects are not taught in isolation, but encompass key lessons within a multidisciplinary framework.
