Classroom

Allo Montessori Classrooms have a very different vibe than the traditional school classroom. Our classrooms are learning environments designed for children to thrive independently of constant teacher direction. Shelves are low and all materials are within reach of even the youngest children. Lessons are thoughtfully arranged from simple to complex, most concrete to more abstract concepts and in the sequence they will be presented and mastered. This strategic organization gives children a clear understanding of which lessons to do and when. They simply work their way through the materials on the shelves moving from left to right, top to bottom.
