[quote=Anonymous]I'm trying to decide between the two for my 2.5 year old. The LAA program would be 2 or 3 days a week full-day (9 am -4:30 pm) whereas the Montessori program would be 5 days a week, 3 hours per day (9 am-12 pm). My son is very energetic, verbal, and loves being outdoors--I like the 3-hour-a-day schedule at the Montessori, but cannot picture him tinkering with tiny toys for 3 straight hours. I am also concerned about the class size of the montessori, which is close to 30 students, with only one teacher and 2 TAs (is that typical?). With respect to LAA, I like the way they break their day up into various activities (playground, afternoon activity, snack time, etc.), but am concerned that the day runs very long, and my son's week would be kind of jolty, with being in school for almost 8 hours 2 or 3 days a week, and then not at all for the other days. Are there any LAA parents here with children in the PT program? Would appreciate any advice/insight![/quote]
