Have you ever heard of executive functioning? It refers to being able to plan, organize, focus, control impulses, and make choices. In Montessori all of these skills are nurtured and encouraged. You can do these things at home, too. We encourage focus and concentration by giving the children uninterrupted time to work on high interest tasks. We have a 3 hour work cycle daily. Upon arrival the children eat a snack and then the three hour work cycle begins. The kids have a combination of lessons and independent work until lunch time. Our students are free to choose their work when not attending a lesson. To promote impulse control, we have lessons on grace and courtesy starting at age 3. As the children get older and their organizational skills are being developed, we support them in planning their work for the week.
