Sign Language and How It Benefits Childhood Development

As a childcare center that values each child’s overall growth and development, we make sure that each of our students gets to communicate freely and creatively. As such, Montessori Kid’s Land Academy offers sign language courses that our students can learn from and apply to everyday life.

According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, “about 2 to 3 out of every 1,000 children in the United States are born with a detectable level of hearing loss in one or both ears.” Because of this, our Montessori infant and preschool education in Redlands, California, prepares students to learn sign language to communicate with others effectively.

Sign language should be an essential part of every curriculum in America. There are many people who have communication disorders who find it challenging to relay their thoughts and needs every day. As such, by giving your child the opportunity to learn sign language at an early age, they can help, make friends, and connect with ease.

Aside from improving their interpersonal communication skills, learning sign language at our infant center can also provide the following benefits:

  • Career and academic opportunities
  • Promotes better awareness of and sensitivity to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community
  • Long-term cognitive benefits of learning sign language
  • Enhanced ability to interpret body language
  • Better reaction times and peripheral vision

Montessori Kid’s Land Academy also offers yoga, music & movement, Spanish and cosmic Education for free. Give your child the Montessori advantage today! Enroll them in our sign language classes for a better, brighter tomorrow.

Montessori: Life Skills Embedded in Personal Learning

montessori-life-skills-embedded-in-personal-learning

The Montessori Method is a specific child-centered education method involving child-led activities. Montessori teaching is often taught in classrooms with children of varying ages and teachers encouraging independence among their pupils. This was developed in the early 1900s by Dr. Maria Montessori.

Dr. Montessori believed that children learn best when they choose what they want to know. This is a type of philosophy that our Montessori preschool also follows. A typical Montessori classroom at Montessori Kid’s Land Academy consists of the following:

  • Students select from a variety of activity stations throughout the day, such as preschool level life skills, arts and crafts, science, math, sensorial development, language and writing skills, cultural studies, music, geography, and preschool level biology and cosmic education.
  • Instead of manning the front of the classroom, teachers move from group to group.
  • A non-traditional grading system
  • A focus on the development of the whole student, taking into account their social, emotional, intellectual, and physical needs.

Our preschool and infant center in Redlands, California, provides a variety of lessons and activities within our Montessori Kid’s Land Academy curriculum. We make sure that each of our students gets to explore and learn as much as they can without limits.

Aside from that, our classroom environment provides opportunities for self-correction. The children at our Montessori infant and preschool education in Redlands, California, learn from their own mistakes and improve their judgment while doing the activities that interest them the most.

A Montessori classroom basically helps children learn life skills that are essential to their growth. Not only will it help them right now as children, but their learnings at our infant center will also guide them as they mature and dive into career and advanced education.

Give your child the Montessori advantage today! Visit us at 31587 Alta Vista Dr., Redlands, CA 92373, or call 909-312-9512/909-794-8530.
