At Karter Schools, we believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals who are not only academically proficient but also equipped to excel in our ever-evolving world.

5 Areas OF LEARNING IN KARTER SCHOOLS CHANTILLY MONTESSORI
1. PRACTICAL LIFE
The practical life area will help children learn how to care for themselves and their surroundings. They will acquire skills in food preparation, grace, and manners. As each kid gains skills in time management, multi-step tasks, and problem-solving, these will help develop their executive functioning. Through high-quality education, children will gain confidence and independence.
2. SENSORIAL
Sensory activities teach children to distinguish one object from another, which broadens and hones their senses. Children are capable of absorbing information whether consciously or subconsciously, helping them in identifying and understanding the world. The use of Montessori materials and sensory activities helps the child develop, perception, and awareness of their surroundings.
3. Mathematics
Your child will develop numeracy skills in this subject area which will help them succeed in math classes in the future. The self-correcting nature of Montessori materials encourages your kid to learn independently. They will be able to identify any errors they may have made and then fix them.
4. Cultural Studies
Your kids will discover more about the larger world in the Cultural Studies area. They will learn items related to geography, history, science, art, and music. As a result, a wide variety of materials will be available here, including maps, globes, flags, instruments, artwork, and art materials.
5. Language
Your kid will begin studying letters, phonics, and reading. As your child learns about language and hones their early literacy abilities, they will utilize storybooks, the moveable alphabet, paper, writing tools, and other items in the language area.
