The main purpose of the Country montessori preschool and kindergarten is to help develop the whole child, physically, intellectually, and socially.
It aims at helping him/her discover and then fulfill all their potentials.
To achieve this end, an attempt is made to create an environment and atmosphere where the child will develop a great love for learning.
Dr. Maria Montessori believed that no human being is educated by another person.
He/she must educate themselves or it will never be done.
A truly educated person continues learning long after the hours and years they spend a classroom because they are motivated from within by a natural curiosity and a love for knowledge.
In the Montessori classroom this objective is approached in two ways; by allowing each child to experience the excitement of learning by his/her own choice rather than by some outside force; and secondly by helping him/her perfect all their natural tools for learning so their ability will be developed at a maximum in the future learning situations.
The Montessori materials in the classroom have this dual long-range purpose in addition to their immediate purpose of giving specific information to the child.
