Dr. Montessori believed that children were born with extraordinary creative potential inside each and very one of them just waiting to blossom. After working with special needs children, she wondered if some of the techniques that were so effective on them could be applied to children without so called special needs.

The Montessori method of teaching includes grouping children into three year age groups. This is so the children will naturally teach each other and learn from each other. This give and take process creates nurturing, helpful children that understand the value of teamwork and community.
