[quote=Anonymous]Montessori is probably different in that its methods are so rigid (and I also did not consider it for my child), but as for the other styles . . . I had a similar Q when we were looking at preschools and a well-respected teacher at our public PS told me that the best PS teachers/programs take the best of all those models. It would not surprise me if there is a lot of overlap in the play-based models for early childhood education and there is as much variation between and among teachers as there is among curricula. As an example, we have a standard curriculum at my child's preschool but the way it is implemented by the different teachers is extremely different. So I'd just tour the schools (during the school day) and see which ones you are most comfortable with.[/quote]
