Upper Elementary (Ages 9-12)
The Upper Elementary students are concerned with the workings of society. To meet their needs, the curriculum for the 9 to 12 year old is based on history, geography, and science - what Dr. Montessori grouped as the cultural subjects. Each student works individually to master language skills and mathematics while studying the cultural areas as a group, a structure which facilitates both independent study and group work. During the school week, elementary students have work periods focused on art, Thai language, and Physical Education. Senior Upper Elementary children in our program are prepared to graduate and go on to a variety of educational programs. |
