[quote=Anonymous]I'm trying to figure out what kind of preschool would be best for my daughter, as we consider where to apply into the PS3 lottery. I imagine others are doing the same, so I thought this thread could be useful. Three of the models I've seen are Montessori, Reggio, Expeditionary Learning, and IB programs. I'm curious what the pros/cons are of each of these, and what kinds of kids tend to do best with them. My own child is extroverted, and I'm thinking that schools that emphasize individual work to the exclusion of group work would not be a good fit for her, so I'm leaning away from Montessori. It seems like kids get a lot of choice in Montessori, which is great, but there is not much one-on-one time with the teacher, and kids don't do group work. My thought is that the other styles of learning, especially expeditionary learning, might be better for her. I'd be curious to hear others' takes on this. [/quote]
