Montessori Curriculum:

The basic Montessori curriculum is divided into five parts. The Practical Life section is devoted to teaching the child how to master everyday, self reliance skills such as dressing one’s self, preparing one’s own snack, pouring one’s drink, cleaning up after one’s self, etc. How proud our students are when they can peel and slice a banana (safety cutters, of course!) on their own and serve it to their friends for snack. The Sensorial exercises help to teach children to use their senses as a pathway to discovery.

By the time our students graduate PMC, many are already reading and have a fundamental grasp of the English language. The Cultural Studies dimension of the curriculum includes exposure to geography (maps, globes, land forms, ecology, etc.) biology (care and study of plants and animals) and social studies (exposure to different countries, cultures, customs, holidays, etc.).
