Math

Students use materials to work toward the abstraction of math concepts, naturally formulating rules and formulas themselves. Traditionally, the study of mathematics starts with the rules and the drills follow. According to the Montessori Method, the rules are points of arrival — not departure. Through the child's own effort, the internalization of abstract concepts is achieved. This carefully designed movement from the concrete to the abstract allows the child to develop a deep understanding of complex mathematical principles.

Areas of focus include:

• Number & Operations in Base 10
• Measurement & Additional Concepts
• Fractions
• Algebra
• Geometry
