Montessori Philosophy

«We are the sowers; our children are those who reap. We labor so that future generations will be better and nobler than we are.» — Dr. Maria Montessori

 

Philosophy

Prunelle School develops every child’s natural love of learning. We are proud to provide a prepared environment where our students engage in meaningful work under the guidance of our highly-trained educators and staff.

Prunelle School boasts the traditional Montessori Method with the belief that cognitive development is the product of interaction between the individual and the environment. We have a uniquely designed, activity based learning environment structured to meet your child's needs. We recognize that children learn and adapt differently and stress the importance of adapting the curriculum to a child’s developmental level. Our goal is to spark a child’s interest in learning, thereby helping them to become life-long learners. The school strives to assist children in personal development, as well as educational development. We strongly believe that the community of the child, parent, and educator is the foundation of the school’s success.

 

About Maria Montessori

Maria MontessoriOn January 6, 1907 Maria Montessori founded the first Casa Dei Bambini, or “Children’s House” and began developing the Montessori Method of education. The Montessori method of education is based on Maria Montessori’s scientific observations of the children at Casa Dei Bambini.

Maria Montessori deduced that children teach themselves through tireless manipulations of materials and absorb information constantly. This motivated her lifelong pursuit of educational reform, teaching, and educator training. She was dedicated to the self-creating process of the child.
