Montessori Language Curriculam

Parents are our partners in Ayelet, our Super Saturday sessions are organised to ensure parents are aware and informed. On the 7th of July 2018, we organised a session on Montessori Language Curriculum. We understand, language development is crucial and in a Montessori environment our plan works at meeting all the needs of a young child.

We told parents about how language is interwoven in the curriculum, discuss the amazing Montessori materials, and what their child is expected to get exposed to. We informed parents about the direct and indirect preparation, explosion into writing & reading, grammar, 2nd and 3rd languages etc. Parents had many queries which were also taken care of.

We ended the session by telling parents how important it is to read books to their children, communicate with them and listen to them. An enriching session with happy and satisfied parents.

Not Mere Words... But Experiences!

Montessori learning is unmatched because children are empowered to explore at their own pace, follow their natural curiosity, and build deep, lasting understanding through hands-on experiences in a thoughtfully prepared environment. Introducing language to young children at the right time and in the right way can truly shape their entire learning journey. In the Montessori approach, nothing is random — every lesson, material, and experience is carefully thought out to support the child’s natural development. And yes, we mean materials — not toys. Each one is a gift from Dr. Maria Montessori herself, designed after years of observing how children actually learn best. One such gem is the Large Moveable Alphabet . It’s a beautiful, hands-on material that does so much — from building phonemic awareness to strengthening early writing skills, spelling, and even confidence. Here's something we often say in Montessori: writing comes before reading . And the Large Moveable Alphabet...

🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important

If you are a parent of a young child and exploring preschools in Bengaluru, you will notice many schools claiming to be Montessori. But here’s the truth: calling yourself a Montessori school and being an authentic Montessori environment are two very different things. Unfortunately, many preschools use the Montessori label as a marketing strategy. But a visit to the classroom often reveals something else: Substandard or imitation Montessori materials Locked shelves with limited child access Untrained teachers directing instead of guiding A lack of observation and individualized learning Traditional practices like punishments and rewards When a school is not Montessori, these practices may simply reflect its chosen method. But when a school claims to be Montessori while not following the philosophy, it becomes a serious concern. 🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important because Montessori is more than materials or mixed-age classrooms—it is a philosophy of respect, in...

What is Normalisation?

‘Normalisation’ a term which you will hear often in a Montessori environment. This very term at times confuses parents, specially the ones who don’t know much about the method. Normalisation doesn’t imply that a child or set of children aren’t normal, we are no one to say that. Then what does normalisation mean? Normalisation is a very special process in the overall development of a child. When a child is able to concentrate on an activity, when s/he works freely in their Montessori environment. These children are self-deciplined and peaceful. It is a stage where the child's will, intelligence and coordination of movements work together. It is a very important stage of development. A child in this stage of development enjoys his/her work. In The Absorbent Mind, Dr. Montessori says the following about normalisation “the most important single result of our whole work.” Children go through 3 stages of normalisation in a Montessori environment: A child w...
