SOCIAL STUDIES CLASSES FOR ROCKVILLE STUDENTS
Social Studies Classes in Rockville, Maryland
Social Studies Classes
Preschool- and kindergarten-aged children are naturally curious individuals with an innate love for learning. Dr. Maria Montessori understood this concept, and spent her life developing a comprehensive curriculum designed to help children thrive in academia. Part of this curriculum involves a strong focus on social studies, exposing children to the different people, places, and belief systems around the world.
At Norbeck Montessori, we are committed to helping your child learn social studies in a way that’s fun and easy to understand. Using the time-tested Montessori curriculum, our team will help prepare your child for lifelong academic success.
Rockville Social Studies Classes for Preschool & Kindergarten Students
Social studies focus on social science and the humanities, including history and geography. These concepts can be quite challenging for small children to understand as they are forced to think outside themselves and conceptualize the reality of our large and varied world. Our team helps present social studies in a way that is easily digestible and understandable by breaking down these concepts into two main parts:
-
Geography: Our skilled educators introduce students first to the larger concept of the world, then guide them through more detailed concepts, such as land and water formations, individual cultures, continental maps, capitals, flags, and more.
-
History: The passage of time can be an incredibly difficult idea for young children to grasp. Norbeck Montessori takes time to break this concept down into easily understandable materials, such as months, days, and hours. From there, we teach students how to tell time and apply these concepts to the broader context of history.
What Makes Social Studies at Norbeck Montessori Different Than Other Schools?
Learning in a Montessori school is inherently different than at other preschools. When you enroll your child at Norbeck Montessori, you’ll be able to tell the difference right away through the following distinguishing features:
-
Our Staff: Not only do our teachers hold the highest educational qualifications, but our educators have all been with our school for years with very little turnover at our institution.
-
History: The passage of time can be an incredibly difficult idea for young children to grasp. Norbeck Montessori takes time to break this concept down into easily understandable materials, such as months, days, and hours. From there, we teach students how to tell time and apply these concepts to the broader context of history.
-
Our Values: We are family-owned and -operated, and each of our programs is backed by the long-standing values of Montessori’s time-honored curricula and focus on the whole child.
Our instructors carefully observe the individual needs and interests of each child, using this information to develop an individualized learning plan that fosters real learning and retention. We don’t lecture children: We guide them into real learning through our personalized approach.
