VMS - Our Montessori Philosophy
Village Montessori School in Flemington educates children in the manner formulated by
the famous Italian Physician and Educator, Maria Montessori (1870-1952).
Dr. Montessori felt that the goal for early childhood education should
not be to fill the child with facts, but rather to cultivate his own
natural desire to learn.
"There are many things which no teacher can convey to a child of three,
but a child of five can do it with the utmost of ease."
Our carefully prepared environment fosters
learning in all areas. It is a place where the child can do things
for himself/herself. The Montessori environment helps bring out
the potential of each individual and is constructed to satisfy his
physical, mental and social needs. Within an atmosphere of
order, each child experiences the excitement of learning by his own
choice. |
