Education That Transforms Lives

General Info

The Philosophy The care of the Dublin Montessori Academy approach to education is individuality. More important than any of the countless ways in which children are alike is the way in which children are alike is the way in which each is different. A child must and will develop in his own unique way. The school environment is carefully prepared with exclusive concern for the well being of young children and with the goal of fostering the joy of learning in each child. In the classroom, there is interaction between children as they work together to solve a common problem or seek assistance from an older child. Each child has the right to work alone uninterrupted. Understanding teachers gently guide and evaluate each child's own unique progress as a free human being. This is the essence of the Montessori philosophy as practiced of Dublin Montessori.

Academic The academic exercises are a natural continuation of the sensorial and practical life experiences. Children who have learned to listen carefully are able to perceive subtle difference in the sounds of letters. Discrimination of size by using the cylinder blocks as well as the fine control of small finger muscles will help prepare a child for writing. Sandpaper letters and numbers, geometric metal insets to practice pencil control, the moveable alphabet, matching words and pictures all help to prepare a child for reading and writing. Children use rods, beads, and spindles to sort, count and measure in preparation for the mathematical operations. Although some children read at four or five years and may be able to tell time, understand the calendar or add and subtract, it is not the practice of Dublin Montessori to push children into academic activity. Pre-school children can and do absorb many difficult concepts if they meet them in concrete form at an early a ge when they enjoy manipulating material. But each child has his own sensitive periods, his own timetable for development.
