“Education is a natural process carried out by the child and is not acquired by listening to words but by experiences in the environment.” -Maria Montessori
MAW Elementary Program
Elementary (Grades 1- Grade 6)
Montessori Academy of Windsor offers an exceptional Elementary School program for Grade 1 through 6. Our Elementary curriculum meets and/or exceeds the Ontario Curriculum requirements while using Montessori Method and Philosophy making the learning process fun and enjoyable for children. The curriculum includes Language, Mathematics, Cultural, Geography, History, Biology, Science, French, Chinese Mandarin, Art and Physical Education. The Elementary environment is a mixed-age group setting with learning materials appropriate for each age. The younger children learn from the older ones, while older students can teach and be role models for younger ones. Students work at their own pace, and the learning environment is designed to accommodate a wide range of interests, abilities, and learning styles. During the work cycle, the teacher circulates and gives lessons and other assistance to individuals or small groups of students. The Montessori Program is open to students with or without prior Montessori experience.
