[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think someone just wants to stir things up. We visited some Montessori schools when we looked at pre-K, but decided to pass because we thought DC would be bored and we knew some other parents whose kids had to be held back when they left for public school because they were too far behind. However, this is not everybody's experience, and I know quite a few people whose kids have done Montessori and done quite well. SO I don't see the need for this sort of thing.[/quote] What? Montessori is known for getting kids above grade level (as long as they display aptitude for it) because of the mixed-age setting. 4 year olds have access to the same reading-development and mathematical materials as the 5 and 6 year olds -- as well as a teacher who is capable of teaching early reading as well as typical 3 yr old curricula. I have heard of zero kids who did not transition to public K or 1 seamlessly.[/quote] Lol[/quote]
