WHY SOPHIE MONTESSORI?
Sophie Montessori provides a Mandarin immersion Montessori licensed home childcare experience that nurtures your child's innate curiosity and independence. Expert instruction, a low teacher-student ratio of 1:6 (we only accept a maximum of 6 students), and a bilingual curriculum create the ideal environment for your child to flourish. Welcome to a place where every student's learning journey is celebrated and where every student can feel at home.
Practical Life
Practical life activities are designed to enhance children's fine motor skills, foster eye-hand coordination, promote independence, encourage concentration, and boost confidence and self-esteem.
Sensorial
Sensorial activities are purposefully tailored to awaken children's senses and cultivate an awareness of their surroundings. These materials meticulously isolate individual sensorial concepts, rendering each one distinct and easily understandable. Specifically designed to define concepts such as weight, size, shape, colour, sound, smell, and texture, these materials empower children to develop a nuanced vocabulary under the guidance of their teachers.
Language
Our language activities introduce children to the phonetic sounds of letters, providing them with a foundational understanding of written language. By tracing alphabet letters, children are prepared for the physical act of writing. As they become ready, encouragement is given for them to craft stories that showcase the expressive aspect of writing.
Math
Our mathematical materials support children in grasping the transition from tangible to conceptual ideas by employing analysis, conception, and exercise. Through the use of these materials, children acquire knowledge of quantities, numeral identification, number sequencing, and a practical understanding of addition and subtraction concepts.
Science & Culture
Montessori culture materials introduce children to diverse subjects like geography, history, botany, and zoology. Students will delve into world maps, grasp concepts of seasons, dates, and time, while also gaining knowledge about the external features of plants and animals.
Mandarin Chinese
With Sophie Montessori your child will gain a foundation in one of the most widely spoken languages in the world in a fun and engaging manner through songs, games and a modern take on traditional Montessori activities.
