Children arrive, unpack, and prepare for the day. Quiet, focused starter activities like journaling, reading, or maths warm-ups help them transition smoothly into learning.
Together, the class enjoys a healthy breakfast. Children take responsibility for serving themselves, practise table manners, and enjoy conversations with friends — small steps towards independence.
The first academic block is dedicated to English. Children refine reading comprehension, grammar, and writing skills. They may read short texts, draft creative stories, or explore new vocabulary — building fluency and confidence as communicators.
A brief reset to prepare for the next subject.
Maths becomes more challenging, moving from basic operations to problem-solving, patterns, and early multiplication. Lessons mix hands-on resources with more abstract thinking, helping children master key skills step by step.
Children stretch, refresh, and get ready for physical activity.
PE lessons combine fun with focus. Whether running, balancing, or playing team games, children build coordination, strength, and resilience — while also learning teamwork and sportsmanship.
A balanced meal of protein, vegetables, and grains fuels both body and mind. Around the table, children practise independence, conversation, and community.
Science sparks curiosity through experiments, observation, and questioning. Children might explore forces, test materials, or observe nature — building early scientific thinking and practical skills.
A short break to reset before diving into the arts.
Creativity takes centre stage. Using paint, clay, or drawing materials, children explore self-expression and develop fine motor skills. Projects often link to class themes, weaving imagination into the curriculum.
Time to stretch and settle before the final session.
The classroom falls quiet as every child picks a book of their choice. This daily ritual builds stamina, comprehension, and a lifelong love of reading.
The day ends with reflection and calm preparation for home. Children share highlights, celebrate effort, and leave feeling proud of their progress.
Maria Montessori, born in 1870, was an Italian educator who developed the Montessori Method, emphasizing independence, hands-on learning, and self-directed activity. Her work revolutionized early childhood education.
Naming our Grade 1 class after Maria Montessori symbolizes our commitment to fostering independence, curiosity, and a love for learning. The class encourages children to explore their interests, learn at their own pace, and engage in meaningful activities, developing critical thinking, cooperation, and responsibility.
