At Century Private School, we are proud to inspire excellence by embracing the Montessori approach, nurturing children to grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Our core curriculum is designed to encourage exploration, independence, and critical thinking while catering to individual learning styles. Here’s an in-depth look at the subjects that form the backbone of our Montessori program:
Personal and Social Development
Montessori education places a strong emphasis on personal growth. Students develop self-awareness, self-reliance, and social skills while fostering an understanding of their surroundings. Grace, courtesy, and problem-solving are woven into daily activities, nurturing a sense of community and collaboration.
Music and Movement
With a focus on creativity and motor skills, music and movement lessons help students refine their gross motor abilities and coordination. These sessions also serve as a joyful outlet for self-expression and creativity.
Practical Life Skills
Practical life activities teach children essential life skills such as concentration, independence, and fine motor control. Through tasks like caring for their environment and developing hand-eye coordination, students build confidence and a sense of responsibility.
Sensorial Education
This area stimulates all five senses while indirectly preparing students for advanced subjects like mathematics and language. From the Pink Tower and Brown Stair to geometric solids and sound boxes, each material is carefully designed to enhance sensory discrimination and cognitive development.
Mathematics
Mathematics in Montessori is hands-on and engaging. Materials like the Sandpaper Numbers, Golden Beads, and Bead Chains offer a tangible way to understand concepts ranging from counting to the decimal system and operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Language
Language development begins with foundational tools like Sandpaper Letters and progresses through word-building with movable alphabets. Reading comprehension is nurtured through phonics, sight words, and interactive storytelling, fostering a lifelong love for reading and communication.
Cultural Education
Students explore history, geography, botany, zoology, and science to develop a broad understanding of the world. This interdisciplinary approach fosters curiosity and helps children appreciate the interconnectedness of knowledge.
French as a Second Language
Recognizing the importance of bilingualism, our program introduces French with a focus on oral communication, enabling students to develop essential language skills in Canada’s second official language.
Art
Art education enhances creativity, concentration, and fine motor skills. Through various mediums, students learn to express themselves while exploring their artistic potential.
