Welcome to Nashoba Montessori.

A child’s fine motor skills, care of the environment, care of self, as well as grace and courtesy develop through activities in daily living. Once in our primary classrooms, the sensorial materials develop the skills of observation in every sense, develop rich vocabulary, as well as an appreciation of the materials used. Language develops through many materials in the classroom. Stories, songs, poems, the names used in geography and science, and the tactile sandpaper letters all contribute to a multi-faceted approach to learning.

Math concepts initiate with concrete materials including sorting, counting and problem solving. Eventually, children move on to use the many math materials available in our classrooms. Maria Montessori designed all of her materials to initially isolate a concept before unifying ideas.
