The Early Childhood Montessori Course

The Early Childhood Montessori Course introduces a child-centered educational approach designed for children aged 2½–6 years. This method emphasizes self-directed activity, hands-on learning, and collaborative work in a thoughtfully “prepared environment.” By focusing on the whole child, the Montessori approach promotes independence, social-emotional growth, and cognitive development through the use of specialized, tactile materials.

In this course, you will gain a deep understanding of the Montessori Method and how it supports young learners. You’ll explore key Montessori concepts, including prominent developmental milestones, independence, concentration, and social skills, and learn how to foster these skills in practical, real-world settings.

The course provides hands-on guidance on using Montessori materials across the five main curricular areas:

• Practical Life Activities: Teach children essential everyday skills, coordination, and responsibility.

• Sensorial: Help children refine their senses and develop critical observation skills through specialized tactile activities.

• Language: Support early reading, writing, and communication skills in a nurturing, exploratory way.

• Mathematics: Introduce concepts of numbers, quantity, and logical thinking using concrete, engaging tools.

• Cultural Subjects: Broaden children’s understanding of geography, science, history, and the world around them.

By the end of this course, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge and confidence to create a prepared environment, facilitate meaningful activities, and guide children in becoming independent, curious, and lifelong learners. Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or early years educator, this course provides practical strategies and insights to implement Montessori principles effectively, both at home and in the classroom.
