• Here at Little Dreamers in the Clouds, we chose to focus on Montessori’s model because we appreciate the autonomous teachings provided by educators. We agree with providing children with the opportunity to challenge what they know through exploration and experimenting. Providing a safe space where children are unconsciously learning through play. Montesorri acknowledged the importance of how significant the environment children participate in. The absorbent mind focuses on the role of a child’s surroundings while they are at play.
• Cowan et. al. (1969) describes how Piaget's general theory of development claims to describe changes in stages of cognitive organization. In other words, different stages in a child’s life define what level of understanding they see in their environment due to biological maturation. Piaget’s theory of development supports Montessori’s model by catering to how a child’s understanding of the world around them develops over time.
• Students will be provided with an enriching play area to support them in learning not only about their intrinsic education, but also an understanding of how they conceptualize the world around them.
