Everyday activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, and physical
coordination as well as cognitive preparation for future intellectual academic endeavors. The
holistic curriculum, under the direction of a specially trained teacher using the Montessori
method, allows the child to experience the joy of learning, the time to enjoy the process, and
ensures the development of self-esteem. It provides the experiences from which children
create their knowledge.
The Montessori method of education that will be used at the Coastal Empire Montessori
Charter School has long been established as an approach that successfully meets children’s
individual needs while simultaneously accomplishing the goal of educating children to
become contributing citizens to our society. The highly structured teaching methodology is
designed to provide an activity-based curriculum using an individualized approach
supplemented with experiential components such as discovery-based activities. The
program initiator, Dr. Maria Montessori, was a woman physician (the first in Italy) who
worked with and developed a method whereby mentally deficient children could learn and
even pass national education exams. The amazing success of these children, who could read,
write, and carry out mathematical functions at ages 4 and 5, has been celebrated worldwide.
