Nature’s Way International Montessori
Founded in 2021 Nature’s Way International Montessori currently offers a method of education based on a self-directed, hands-on approach from 18 months – 6 years as these are the most crucial years of a child. The curriculum is carefully structured and sequenced based on the developmental needs of each individual child in a ”prepared environment”. We encourage creativity and curiosity through ”freedoms within limits” that leads children to ask questions, explore, investigate and think for themselves. Foundations are laid for building skills to engage the world as active citizens and become successful leaders for our future.
Nature’s Way International Montessori follows the International Montessori Curriculum principles. We continue the tradition first established by Dr. Montessori in 1897, a tradition that incorporates standards based directly on Dr. Montessori’s work. Our teachers use the holistic approach of Maria Montessori, helping all children become truly capable and productive individuals by focusing on their Physical, Intellectual , Linguistic , Emotional and Social Development.
NWIM’s has an outdoor class where students learn about the outdoor environment and have an active role in planting, harvesting, caring for the flowers and animals. This hands-on experiences with the natural world provides physical activity opportunities, improves their motor skills, and strengthens their immune system stimulating all senses.
NWIMs offers ”home based” designed classrooms with child size furniture and accessible shelves which facilitates independence. Our classrooms are well lit, spacious and well ventilated. In such an environment, grace and courtesy values will be developed and enhanced. Classes host mixed aged groups. This is to promote responsibility. The older children serve as role models to encourage appropriate behavior.
