Elementary

Students that have completed Montessori early childhood programs are often more advanced than their peers. Montessori students enjoy their freedom of choice and ability to work through the curriculum at their own pace. Teachers understand that students may accelerate in some areas and require additional time in others. We provide opportunities for more complex and in-depth discovery of subjects students are interested in. Our students do not just memorize facts, they learn the “hows,” “whens,” and “whys”.

For students that wish to continue to first grade at Stockton Montessori the transition is seamless. Our prepared environment offers continuity with familiar routines and learning materials. Teachers introduce materials to students according to their level and readiness. Older students that have mastered beginning skills require new challenges so the classroom and curriculum will reflect their maturing needs. For example, practical life and sensorial activities may no longer be a focal point as they learn more advanced math and science. Please see our curriculum list for an overview of the subjects taught.
