School Special Classes

S.T.E.A.M. Technology

STEAM Education is an approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking. We encourage our students to ask questions and discover answers in a way that keeps them engaged and still asking more questions.

Art Education

The art area in a Montessori classroom provides developmentally appropriate and open-ended experiences that foster creativity and sensory development. We feel that art is one of the many ways children express themselves and communicate their feelings.

Music

Music is incorporated in the classrooms in many ways throughout the day. From transition times to lessons, music and song is infused throughout the day. Montessori bells and other instruments are available for experimentation and formal instruction.

Spanish

Capitalizing on the young child’s propensity for language acquisition, foreign language is integrated into the prepared environment through individual and small group instruction utilizing hands-on materials and experiential, conversational interaction.

Physical Education

Children want to move and need to move.  Our environments allow for movement, both purposeful and playful.  From gross motor work in the classroom to running on the playground to music with movement, children can engage in physical activity throughout their day, promoting both  emotional growth and intellectual growth.
