“An education capable of saving humanity is no small undertaking; it involves the spiritual development of man, the enhancement of his value as an individual, and the preparation of young people to understand the times in which they live.”
- Dr Maria Montessori

Growing into an awareness of the world around them, the elementary student pursues knowledge in a community environment. As children transition into elementary, their worldview shifts to explore with genuine curiosity the thoughts, feelings, and actions of others. Elementary students are receptive to intense academics and show incredible ingenuity and imagination. Students in elementary classrooms build upon skills and concepts introduced in the primary environment. |
|
|
Montessori materials, along with timelines and impressionistic charts, are used to introduce new concepts. As they age, students continue working to build knowledge and master academic skills in all subject areas of the curriculum as they progress on the path to independence and responsibility. |
|
|
Mathematics, language, geography, history, and the cultural subjects are presented in such a manner that the reasoning mind and imagination of the elementary student are actively engaged. Academics are supported throughout the week by specialists who teach Spanish, art, and music. |

The students’ growing interest in society and their role in the bigger world are met through “Going Out” trips outside of the classroom environment and community service work both on-and off-campus. These trips and service projects become more frequent as students mature during the elementary program. As this growth occurs, Montessori materials and lessons related to the unity of the universe and the relationship of all things continue to play a key role, and students move in their education toward the abstraction of concepts.
The elementary environment is designed to meet the child’s growing social interest and provides opportunities for both individual and group work. The Smart Start Montessori Elementary Program is designed to encourage exploration, research, collaboration, and sharing. Developing independent, responsible, and capable young people, with an excitement about life and learning, is the primary goal of the elementary environments at Smart Start.
