On September 28th, Neshaminy Montessori opened its doors to a new community of learners- our devoted parents!
Our “Curriculum Night “provides the opportunity for our adult learners to experience the classroom through their child’s eyes. The directresses provide classroom tours, go over daily schedules, present innovative lessons, and highlight curriculum content.
In addition to learning about the Montessori method and instruction, our educators explain their personal philosophies of education. Each directress strives to create an environment rich in creativity, peace, and academic success.
Building a bridge between parents and teachers is essential in creating a foundation of a lifelong love of learning. Parents are a critical part of the learning experience in our classrooms. When educators and parents work together, our children benefit in the following ways:
1. Student Motivation- Parent involvement boosts your child’s motivation and improves self-esteem. Attending “Curriculum Night” and other parental workshops demonstrates to your child that their educational journey is important. When parents actively support their child’s academic life, children tend to perform to their fullest potential.
2. Educational Experiences- Parents learn about and gain an understanding of the Montessori philosophy of teaching. When parents feel confident in their knowledge, they can provide meaningful educational opportunities at home.
3. Security- By being actively involved in your child’s academic functions, it conveys the message that school is a safe and loving environment. Your children witness that you enjoy their school and learning just as much as they do.
We look forward to a continued partnership with parents and invite you to join our monthly workshops on academic topics related to your child.
