Our 3-5 curriculum is based on the philosophy and methodology of Dr. Maria Montessori. It is designed to engage children in thoughtful pursuits and encourages a lifelong love of learning. Students at LGM experience concepts and develop skills at each level of understanding. We challenge students by establishing a high standard for thoughtful work.

Each classroom is a structured environment. Teachers provide a consistent approach, which assists in the development of orderly thought. Hands-on materials are sequenced and activities are organized into the curriculum by degree of difficulty. Within this framework, children develop at their own pace. Respect for self, others and the environment are a fundamental theme and form the cornerstone of all relationships. Guided choice and freedom with responsibility, based upon self-discipline and developmental needs, are also important aspects of the classroom.

Multi-aged classes support educational goals in a variety of ways. Children are inspired through observation of others in the class. Younger children learn from the older children who serve as role modes. Older children develop leadership skills and a sense of social responsibility. This structure allows for flexibility in educational style and pace, so that the child may advance in areas of strength, and continue to work in areas that need additional support.

The goals of the 3-5 classroom are:

  • To provide a rich learning environment in which children are free to explore and grow academically, socially, physically and emotionally.
  • To cultivate self confidence
  • To develop a positive attitude toward learning
  • To enhance social skills
  • To introduce art, music and Spanish
  • To introduce students to the Montessori curricular areas of practical life, sensorial, math and cultural studies.
