Pleasant Hill Casa Dei Bambini

Doctor Montessori’s philosophy of education is based on “the personality, a harmonious growth of all potentialities of the child, mental and physical, according to the laws of its being…”

Dr. Montessori stated that children have natural tendencies toward learning, that stages of learning exist for which there should be corresponding educational environments and trained teachers who “prepare the environment”. The child learns independently using the components of the environment; the teacher coaches and observes the child who chooses her activities. The teacher is the link between the child and the environment.

The learning environment cultivates individualization, freedom of choice, concentration, independence, problem solving abilities, social interaction, interdisciplinary breadth, and competency in basic skills.
