Bright Horizons Montessori Programs
Deciding what is best for your child is an ongoing consideration for any parent.
Of course, you want to provide your child the best start in life, with educational
opportunities that allow him or her to thrive. Bright Horizons’ Montessori Programs
may be one of the learning approaches you are considering.
What is Montessori?
Montessori is an approach to education grounded in the belief that a child learns
best within a social environment that supports and respects each individual’s unique
development. Children develop at their own pace and through their own experiences
in a carefully prepared environment. The primary goal is to help each child reach
full potential in all areas of life.
The Method
In the Montessori Method, activities promote the development of social skills, emotional
growth, and physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation. Classrooms tend
to be quiet and calm, with children working, learning, exploring, and developing
in mixed-age groups. The holistic curriculum, under the direction of a specially
prepared teacher, allows the child to experience the joy of learning, time to enjoy
the process and ensure the development of self-esteem, and provides the experiences
from which a child creates his or her knowledge.
