Practical life exercises essentially provide the blueprint of life and emphasize building fine motor skills and increasing attention spans. Sensorial Sensorial lessons define shape, color, size, weight, sound, smell and texture.
Sensorial experiences appeal to the five senses of sight, touch, smell, taste and sound.
The use of concrete sensorial materials establishes the necessary foundation for the child to later recognize the abstract ideas with greater understanding and a more organized mind. Language Language development spans all areas of the classroom and is alive with movement. In the Montessori classroom children learn through phonetics as well as sight reading through labels in the classroom. Individualistic lessons are based on phonetics, linguistics and sight reading skills. The children s interest in reading is never stifled by monotony, rather it is cultivated as their most important key to future learning.
