Mercy Montessori Center in Cincinnati, OH

Day Care Center Description

A childs first experience of school sets the tone for years to come. Between the ages of 3 and 6 children love to learn, and from the earliest age do so through their senses. They touch, feel and explore everything in their world.
The Montessori Education system builds on this innate instinct, and makes each childs first days in school a process of increasingly focused discovery. This lays the groundwork for the more rigorous learning experiences that will come later.
Simply put, the goal of the Primary years is to help each child fall in love with learning. Exercises in practical life, language development, mathematics, geography, history, biology, music, art and religion are offered. Each child is shown how to use the Montessori materials, and the self-correcting quality of the work chosen enables each to participate as his or her own teacher. Meanwhile guided repetition helps each child focus and gain greater confidence in his or her abilities.
Gradually a sense of independence emerges and the delight that comes with knowing "I can do it by myself." Younger children are in class for half of each day. Kindergarten students remain at Mercy for a full school day, beginning the transition between the primary and elementary years.
Beyond schoolwork, these early years are also a time when children learn to create loving and respectful bonds among themselves. Throughout their education at Mercy children will remain with the same teacher in each level (ages 3-6, 6-9, and 9-12) for a period of three years. This continuity fosters supportive and enduring relationships with each other.
