Preschool Class: Montessori Program
The Grand Rapids Islamic School's Preschool Montessori program aligns with American Montessori Society's model and expectations. "The program helps children to reach their full potential in all areas of life—cognitive, social, emotional, and physical. A Montessori teacher functions as a role model, demonstrator, record keeper, and meticulous observer of each child’s behavior and growth. It is the Montessori teacher who prepares the active, developmentally appropriate learning environment, furnished with specially designed materials, where students explore, discover, and experience the joy of learning." For more information on the Montessori program, please visit https://amshq.org/Teacher-Resources/Become-an-AMS-Montessori-Teacher-or-Administrator.
