Riverchase Montessori School and Day Care, Coppell

Our classrooms are called environments. Entering into a Montessori environment is entering into a place specially prepared for the fulfillment of every child’s needs; a place in which comfort and motivation take place. It is a carefully designed classroom with mixed ages working together or individually, with materials that invite all children to touch, think, discriminate and associate. Within this prepared environment the child works freely, learning to concentrate, thus fulfilling their internal needs. A sense of self-discipline naturally takes place which provides limits, respect for others, and choices of Montessori activities and curriculum work. Montessori Certified and Trained Teachers welcome each child and show children gradually how to do all the work in the classroom, giving to all the opportunity to repeat the lessons freely and as needed. By observing the children a Montessori Teacher will know when it is necessary to assist or to occasionally structure and or re-direct behavior. More importantly, in this environment, each child preserves his/ her self-esteem and learns to respect others. These are character traits which will last them throughout their lives.
