Our Vision
Children and nature go together! Young children need opportunities to explore the world around them outside the structures of modern living. In our “outdoor classroom”, children apply what they have learned indoors when they dig, plant and watch things grown in the nature. Rather than the usual climbing equipment, Alpha Montessori has created a miniature forest and meadow which provides a unique space for exploring tree bark, leaves, soil, tiny insects and butterflies. We feel that children naturally find great joy in planting and watching their little garden of vegetables grow. There are areas of creative expression in music with outdoor instruments and art tables for construction are all from nature. Our little scientists have clipboards and paper to record their discoveries and binoculars to spy on birds in the top of the trees to see what’s happening in the surrounding neighborhood.
Our vision for the students at Alpha Montessori is to have the kind of environment which will give them a great start in acquiring intellectual skills while developing necessary social and emotional awareness. The beautiful, manipulated Montessori materials that are arranged logically are treats to any child’s eye because they appeal to the senses and their interests. All children deserve a great beginning for learning, and it is our goal for each one.
