Primary Program 学前班

The heart of Montessori education — a comprehensive, bilingual learning experience. 蒙特梭利教育的核心——全面的双语学习体验。

Our Primary Program is the cornerstone of the Little Tree experience. In a mixed-age classroom, children ages 3 to 6 work with Montessori materials across five core areas: Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, and Cultural Studies — all delivered in both English and Mandarin. 学前班是小树苗教育体验的基石。在混龄班级中,3至6岁的孩子使用蒙特梭利教具在五大核心领域学习:日常生活、感官训练、语言、数学和文化研究——均以中英双语教授。

Children choose their own work, developing concentration, self-discipline, and a love of learning. The curriculum is thematic, with each week focused on engaging topics that spark curiosity and deeper understanding of the world around them. 孩子们自主选择学习内容,培养专注力、自律能力和学习热情。课程以主题为导向,每周围绕引人入胜的话题展开,激发好奇心和对周围世界更深层次的理解。
