The most important concept we like about Montessori is that they let the children grow at their own pace and don't force the entire class to learn the same thing at the same time.MUSIC
Children are innately drawn to music. Music's melodic and rhythmic patterns awaken and stimulate neural pathways in the brain that help develop memory, math skills, and powers of abstract and creative thinking. It touches all spheres of development - including language, self expression, concentration, social interaction, listening, teamwork, and self esteem.
Music is an important component in the development of the whole child. Weekly music class provides an opportunity for singing, movement, listening, playing of simple instruments and exploring musical concepts all at a developmentally appropriate level.
Our music teacher at MCHL brings her energy, creativity and knowledge of early childhood development to each class, ensuring a fun and age appropriate musical experience for our students.
"Music is an essential part of everything we do. Like puppetry, music has an abstract quality which speaks to a worldwide audience in a wonderful way that nourishes the soul."- Jim Henson, television producer and puppeteer
