The Classroom The Mission Viejo Montessori Infant classroom is equipped with Montessori materials specifically designed for your young child. We believe your child should experience the world around him or her through the five senses and we prepare our classroom with materials that stimulate their senses and support their language and cognitive development.
Be it singing songs, reading books, playing music or learning sign language all are an integral part of the curriculum aligned with Mission Viejo Montessori’s “whole-child” approach to teaching. We strive to create an environment that nurtures every aspect of a child’s development — cognitive, physical, social and emotional.
Communication Since all infants have different schedules, teachers take your child’s cue and gently respond to their basic needs such as eating and sleeping while encouraging independence. Mission Viejo Montessori believes that the communication between parents and teachers is greatly valued, and our teachers are always available to discuss any concerns or questions you may have.
The Toddler Program Classroom The toddler classroom is designed with each child’s growth and development in mind through a rich and well-planned environment in order to provide a special place for our toddlers to begin their steps towards independence and self-discovery.
Just like our primary curriculum, our toddler curriculum includes Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math, and Cultural areas with monthly thematic units. Our teachers design the curriculum and rotate the materials in the classroom to reflect their thematic unit. Our toddler program prepares children for our preschool classroom in which children work on fine motor skills for pre-writing and pre-reading, along with number recognition and letter sounds and recognition. Potty training is offered as part of our curriculum at no extra fee.
Music & Drama Program Mission Viejo Montessori believes in the “whole child” concept in your child’s growth and development. Because of this, we offer a full range of learning experiences and programs that will engage, enhance and allow your child to express her or himself in a safe and nurturing environment.
During Mission Viejo Montessori’s Music and Movement classes, children are led through a variety of activities to stimulate their motor development while instilling an appreciation for music and the arts. By singing songs, dancing, and improving spatial awareness and body coordination, your child will learn another form of self-expression and gain self-confidence as he or she commands greater control over their body and voice.
