PEDAGOGY AS LIFE AID
While respecting the rhythm of the child and his development plan, we create learning conditions based on freedom of choice, autonomy and positive discipline. We support each child in a way that allows them to achieve the desired goals and thus promote self-confidence and self-esteem.
Who we are:
In order to be able to observe and accompany each child we welcome, we limit the number of children per class. This operation in small groups is beneficial to everyone.
The school is private but does not respond to any political or religious movement.
Within our classes, the age ranges are quite wide. This division is part of the traditional Montessori pedagogy. It promotes work on mutual aid and mutual respect. The small community thus formed lays the foundations for the life in society of the future adults they will become.
The kindness we show towards children does not mean that the child does not develop in a clear framework. The teachers are guides, they are the bearers of the rules to be respected within the group. Among the older ones, its rules are drawn up at the beginning of the year for the creation of the community.
“It is not a question of leaving the child to itself so that he does what it wants, but of preparing an environment where the child can act freely.”
Maria Montessori
MONTESSORI METHOD OF EDUCATION
Maria Montessori is one of the first female doctors of her time. A graduate in natural sciences, philosophy and psychology, she is a remarkable figure of the 20th century. In contact with the children of San Lorenzo, she draws on her observations to develop educational precepts that are so avant-garde that they are still relevant today.
THE METHOD OF WHICH IT HAS ORIGINED IN ITALY DEVELOPS THE PRINCIPLES OF:
FREEDOM
To learn to make choices
by the exercise of our will.
RESPECT
Learn self-respect,
of others, of all that
surrounds us.
SOLIDARITY
Benevolence of some towards
others, concept of cooperation and
of interdependence.
IT IS BASED ON 3 KEY POINTS:
THE IMPORTANCE OF
THE ENVIRONMENT
The material is attractive
and perfected. It arouses interest and
appropriation of concepts
through sensory education.
THE IMAGE OF THE TEACHER
The educator is the guarantor
of this environment.
It presents itself to every child in
a state of “humility” suitable for facilitating
the outbreak of personality
thereof.
CONSIDERATION
OF INDIVIDUALITY
Each and every one of us
is a unique, responsible being
of his personal choices.
