The Montessori Kindergarten Year: A Foundation for Life
For our primary 3rd-year students…
“The kindergarten year in an early childhood Montessori program is a pivotal year. It is the end point of a three-year cycle. It develops the foundation for what Maria Montessori saw as a civilized human being, moving forward through their life.”
Three year primary cycle:
1st Year – Planting the seed
2nd Year – Watering, stem/leaves begin to grow
3rd Year – Beautiful flower finally blooms
“To miss the 3rd year would be missing the most important part of the cycle…it’s like taking the cake out of the oven before it’s done!”
