Delfines / the dolphins Primary Children's Home ( 3 years - 6 years)

A day in the Home classroom Upon entering a Children's House classroom, you are immediately in a quiet environment, bathed in natural light. Beautiful photographs and framed artwork are placed at children's eye level, creating a visually stimulating environment. The room is carefully arranged with Montessori materials that are scientifically designed and crafted from high-quality natural materials. Each piece is not just a learning tool, but a work of art in its own right.

Various plants and flowers add life and vitality to space. Children participate in different activities, some sitting at child-sized tables and chairs, while others work on small rugs on the floor. Some children move resolutely around the room, exploring the different materials and activities on the shelves. Whether working independently or with a partner, each child is completely engrossed in the task at hand.

In this unique and dynamic space, children of different ages participate in a wide range of useful activities. They choose their own "work," such as polishing, painting, making snacks, watering plants, or sorting button cylinders and pink buckets into towers. Other children may be practicing letter recognition on sandpaper, labeling a map of the world, or exploring math concepts with spindle rods. Each child enjoys considerable freedom of choice, guided by an environment carefully prepared and adapted to their size, abilities and developmental needs. Space encourages children to thrive within a community of respect, love, and order.

The Montessori approach nurtures each child's individual development. Children are provided with materials and activities that align with their interests, needs, and dispositions, allowing them to progress at their own pace. This method encourages the development of essential life skills, including problem-solving, concentration, and independence.

In our mixed-age classrooms, social interaction happens naturally. Younger children are inspired by the work of their older peers, while older children reinforce their own learning and grow in confidence by teaching younger children. This collaborative environment helps all children feel valued as contributing to members of the community.

In addition, our Spanish immersion environment offers children the opportunity to learn several languages simultaneously, fostering cognitive growth and improving their communication skills in a natural and engaging way.
