Create happy links to home as your child’s independence grows. Familiar activities like polishing, folding laundry and sewing all help in your child’s conquest of independence, with the added benefit of simultaneously strengthening their fine motor skills.
Refine your child’s senses as they explore and discover the world. The Montessori Method’s sensorial tools require children to match scents, sounds, colors and more. These tools are designed to isolate a specific sense to allow your child to further develop their sense of touch, sight, taste, sound, smell and propioception to allow your child to beceome more aware of their bodies and the environment around them. Using purposefully designed materials, such as “sound cylinders” that make different noises, the games and extensions are endless!
We want your child to fall in love with language, and the wide array of linguistic materials in the classroom take advantage of the young child’s desire to communicate. Over the three year work cycle, your child will expand their vocabulary, learn to recognize letters and their phonetic sounds, and even how to write and read!
Hands-on math experiences make a life-long impact. Your child can grasp numbers through the use of our math materials, like our “100 square”. Not only seeing the symbol for 1, 1000 or ½, they hold each in their hand: demonstrating to themselves the basics of arithmetic. Their learning is lasting as they can easily count, share, separate and compare numbers in this fun and tactile way.
My little dude is flourishing at PVMA. He surprises me everyday with how capable he is. Thank you!
So happy and blessed to be a part of a great community and so many amazing people who are so positive and kind. PVMA
We’ve had our son at PVMA since January and seen a huge change in his personality and development since! His teachers have been great and very open with their techniques in working with our son and he really seems to enjoy going every day!
