Dr. Maria Montessori spent her life observing and interpreting children’s behaviors.

Frequently, our teachers are asked 'is Montessori school good for a gifted child?’ The short answer is ‘yes,’ but it goes deeper than that.
This upcoming September, many public school system districts will give each entering kindergarten student their iPad. It’s an interesting development to think that a five-year-old can log into a website to learn. But the real problem is how a five-year-old thinks—not if he can operate a computer. Let’s explore how technology and the Montessori classroom work.
Many toddler and preschool teachers are trained to identify specific behavioral signs in our youngest students who may have difficulty expressing themselves. Whether these behaviors are based on nature or nurture, identifying a child’s behavioral needs is being determined well before the child reaches elementary school.
