Cultural Subjects

The Cultural area gives children a chance to explore geography, general science, botany, zoology, music, and art. Dr. Montessori felt that knowing and understanding these subjects was what made a person “cultured.” The Cultural area is unique to the Montessori curriculum; it distinguishes Montessori schools from all other preschools. The Cultural area also prepares children for reading.

Beautiful Outdoor Space

Big City has a beautiful, large outdoor space divided into three areas. Each one offers the child a different experience while playing outside. The padded grass area has a play structure and climbing wall designed for children 3-6 years old. The large rubber area offers the children a place to run, dance and play games with their peers. The large covered deck area provides shelter from the sun and rain - designed for dramatic play, individual play, and group play. During the rainy months we can roll down the curtains and bring out activities for energetic fun.
