[quote=Anonymous]We are thinking of enrolling our daughter in a nearby montessori preschool. It seems pretty similar to all other preschools we visited, perhaps with a bit more of a focus on independence, self care and care for the classroom (e.g. there's a focus on the kids feeding themselves, cleaning up after meals, etc.). Other than the slight focus on self care, it seems pretty similar to all other preschools--kids can play and explore at different stations during the day, have outdoor time, art time, etc. I feel like I'm missing something about what Montessori means at the pre-school level. My daughter will be in the "2s" class. She's a quiet kid who tends to get overwhelmed when there's a lot of noise and chaos. The thing we liked about the Montesorri environment is that it seemed pretty calm when we visited. Thoughts?[/quote]
