Enrichment opportunities for students at Montessori Time School:
Spanish Program – We offer an intensive Spanish program for all students, even Preschoolers, since statistics show the best time to learn a 2nd language is during the early years (ages 1 - 6).
Music Program – Using the Cycle of Seasons program from Musikgarten, students will celebrate their love of nature and gain independence through activities involving the four seasons. This music program develops listening, focused attention, imagination, creativity and self-expression.
Field Trips – We go on several field trips during the year. Some of our past field trips have included seeing a play at Carco Theater, visiting Remlinger Farms in the fall, and going to the Fire Station.
Show and Tell – Children learn to speak in front of a group and practice their listening skills, as well as learn to take turns and respect others' point of view. Items shared include items such as natural artifacts, books and cultural items.
Book club – Parents and children have the opportunity to buy books, videos, and software at reasonable prices through the Scholastic Book Club.
Activities of a religious nature – No specific religious belief will be emphasized, however we welcome ethnic and cultural diversity which helps to raise children's awareness as well as gain an understanding and respect toward all peoples of the world.
Community Service – Students have the opportunity to earn money at home by doing little tasks around the house such as making beds, putting away toys, setting the table, etc. and then donating approximately $2/month towards a community service effort. This is a good opportunity for children to learn about giving joy to another child.
