Educational Philosophy
|
Spark Studio embraces the core Montessori principles of whole-child education, nurturing social, emotional, physical, and academic growth simultaneously.
We deeply respect each child's individual genius, speaking to them as capable thinkers rather than talking down to them. Our guides provide individualized lessons tailored to each child's development level and interests, acknowledging their feelings and needs while supporting their natural curiosity. At Spark, children learn to master subjects at their own pace in an environment designed to foster both independence and community. |
Montessori Curriculum
Half of each day at Spark Studio is dedicated to
focused work in the five core areas of Montessori learning:
focused work in the five core areas of Montessori learning:

|
Practical Life - Children develop independence, coordination, and concentration through everyday activities like pouring, scooping, and caring for their environment.
Sensorial - Through hands-on materials, children refine their senses and build cognitive understanding of concepts like dimension, color, texture, and sound. Mathematics - Concrete materials make abstract math concepts tangible, building a solid foundation for mathematical thinking. Language Arts - Children explore language through phonics, writing, and reading activities that spark a lifelong love of communication. Culture and Science - Learners discover the world around them through geography, biology, and cultural studies that inspire wonder and respect. |
Play-Based Learning
The other half of each day embraces play-based learning,

Outdoor Play - Children enjoy outdoor play at a large pavilion or a nature area for 1.5 hour every day. They play with sports equipment and large open-ended materials that promote physical development and joyful exploration.
Maker Space - Our dedicated area filled with everyday household materials and recyclables allows children to design, build, and problem-solve while bringing their imaginations to life. Imagination Station - This space fosters dramatic play, storytelling, and social skill development, making learning both fun and meaningful. |
