Title: Language skills with Montessori schools


1
Language skills with Montessori schools
  • Approach adopted by Montessori is to help in the
    development of childrens unique self, which
    gives the opportunity to the child to develop at
    his/her own pace. This allows the children to
    think freely while learning. If you are
    considering Montessori teaching for your child
    then understandably you would be curious about
    the curriculum it has to offer. Language skills
    play a big role in the learning process of a
    child and it is an important aspect of Montessori
    learning.

Definition
  • Definition of language according to Merriam
    Webster is system of words or signs that people
    use to express thoughts and feelings to each
    other

Drawings and Pictures
  • Initial human language or way of communication
    was through drawings and pictures. Over a period
    of time the pictures and drawings developed into
    diagrams, when different kind of pictures turned
    into symbols and soon the same symbols turned
    into words. As we, all know words involve letter,
    therefore, vowels surfaced which led to
    alphabets. Over time, language has evolved and it
    will continue to evolve from one generation to
    another.

Montessori Classroom
  • A toddler at an age of 18 months can be enrolled
    into most Montessori classes. Children start
    learning language skills as soon as they are
    enrolled into Montessori classrooms.
    Communication triggers the thought process so it
    is of utmost importance that the child is spoken
    to and listened to as well. Child has to be made
    to feel comfortable then only he will be able to
    speak his mind without any hesitation.
    Communication has to be encouraged but it is
    something that happens spontaneously. For
    instance, telling stories to children is a great
    way to engage them into using their language
    skills. Letting the child learn at his/her own
    pace through appropriate activities will build
    their confidence, which is crucial.

Exercises and Vocabulary
  • Matching exercises and vocabulary classification
    that are taught via flash cards are some of the
    tools used by Montessori Method of learning, this
    helps a great deal in the development of visual
    perception. Children are not forced into any kind
    of learning in fact they are encouraged to learn
    at their own speed through different reading
    programs created for them. Books, interactive
    reading, audible stories keeps the child
    interested and the engaged in the task at hand.
    Tracing and writing down words or different
    letters that children have worked on is very
    important. Writing material such as pencils,
    markers, different kinds of papers allows the
    children to be creative.

  • These are only a few techniques that are used by
    Montessori Method of teaching. It is very
    important to research and discuss different
    facets of learning to get the full curriculum
    from any potential school.
