Goals and Objectives of a Montessori School:
Developing in each child a positive attitude toward school...
Most of the learning activities are individualized; i.e. each child engages in that learning task which has a particular appeal for him ... because he finds the activity geared to his needs and level of readiness. Consequently, he works at his own rate, repeating the task as often as he likes, thus experiencing a series of successful achievements. In this manner, he builds up a positive attitude toward learning itself.
Helping each child develop self-confidence as an independent learner...
Many grade and high school pupils have difficulty in school because they do not have confidence in themselves. In the Montessori school, tasks are programmed so that each new step is built on what the child has already mastered, thus removing the negating experience of frequent failure. Success after success builds upon inner confidence in the child, assuring him that he can learn by himself. These confidence-building activities likewise contribute to the child's sound emotional development.
Assisting each child in building a habit of concentration...
Effective learning pre-supposes the ability to listen carefully and to attend to what is said or demonstrated. Through a series of absorbing experiences, the child forms habits of extended attention, thus increasing his ability to concentrate.
Fostering in the child an abiding curiosity...
In a rapidly changing society, all of us will have to be students all our lives. A deep, persistent, and abiding curiosity is a pre-requisite for creative learning. By providing the child with opportunities to discover qualities, dimensions, and relationships amidst a rich variety of stimulating learning situations his natural desire to know is developed into a habit of being curious - an essential element in creative learning.
