Toddler Curriculum

Our toddler Montessori program have an atmosphere of loving support and respect where children of 18 months to 3 years learn to care for themselves and to interact with one another. Special attention is given to language and motor skill development.

Development of Language & Communication:​ Enrichment of vocabulary

Children absorb language around them very fast and they must be given maximum opportunities to expand their vocabulary, listening and conversation skills. Various activities such as naming, matching, sorting, painting, singing, music, and both one on one and group interaction help in enhancing their language and Communication.  

Montessori Toddler Program offer a curriculum that emerges from each child's unique skills and interests. Based on daily observations, teachers introduce new materials and activities that pique curiosity and stimulate learning. Learning objectives for your child at this age include developing skills such as language, concentration, problem solving, visual discrimination, and physical coordination. Activities promote independence, order, coordination, and concentration, as well as support social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development. These learning activities include: 

• Self-care: washing, dressing, toileting, and eating, according to each child’s individual capacity
• Care of the environment: cleaning, food preparation and food service; plant care.
• Large-motor activities (indoors and out): walking, climbing, running, jumping, balancing, climbing steps, and more.
• Fine-motor skills: reaching, grasping, picking up objects, transferring objects, using tools and utensils, doing art work
• Language: naming objects, describing actions and intentions, discussing pictures, conversation, music, and singing.

Mathematics: Development of Numerical skills.

Montessori believed that a child's mind is mathematical and based on the order of perceptual awareness found in the development of the senses. The acquisition of mathematical principles is seen as developing logically from concrete to abstract, and from simple to complex.
It start from 1-10 and involves associating number names, quantities and symbols. This area of learning follows a definite pattern based on which concrete materials are offered. The child conceives all the abstractions of operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Culture: Awareness of the world around us

The Montessori cultural area includes variety of subjects - geography, botany, zoology, science, art, and music. By studying these subjects will provide children pan opportunity to explore their curiosity of different and worldly ideas.

Geography: Children learn about the world through tactile feelings of the Globe through puzzles and picture cards. The landforms like Lakes, Islands, Bays and Capes are hands on learning and the children can see visually the water bodies. The continents are colour coded so that the child can associate the Continents easily. This way the child can work through the activities with joy and interests.

Zoology: Children in the Montessori classroom learn about insects and animals through puzzles, objects and pictures. They learn about Vertebrates and Invertebrates through nomenclature cards which helps to child to know the parts of the animals. They are also introduced to Life Cycle of animals through stories and songs. This way the child connects with nature and understand that animals too live in Earth.

Botany: In the Montessori classroom child learn about different kinds of leaves with the Botany Cabinet and match it with the cards. They also learn the parts of the plants through puzzles and rhymes. Through the hands on learning the children experience visually about the plants and names of different flowers along with the colours. Nomenclature cards helps to identify the parts of the plants and this way Botany becomes a lesson with utmost joy and curiosity to learn about the plants and is also encouraged through art and music.
