[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I can speak for number 3: Academically, Kindergartners in Montessori learn so much more than in the public school - the math particularly is light years removed in rigor and depth. Ex: my son did the thousand chain, which besides learning to count to 1000 is also a springboard for cubing numbers. All his classmates could read fluently by the end of the year (my son has a speech delay and was the only one who could not reach that particular goal). The critical thinking involved is much more rigorous than in public school and thus is a much better preparation for academics than public K.
