Sensory Experiences

                                 To young children, there is something very special about

                                 doing things that adults find ordinary. Practical life exercises

                                 such as pouring and spooning, washing dishes or polishing

                                 shoes completely absorb them. At Starting Point Montessori,

                                 we recognize this process as the beginning of control and

                                 coordination of mind and body. Through sensory experiences,

                                 our Preschool/Kindergarten Program helps children distinguish,

                                 categorize and relate new information to what they already

                                 know. They learn math with concrete materials. They construct

                                 words with the movable alphabet, then they can progress to

                                 nuances of the English language, function of words and grammar.
