Crescent curriculum is designed to support the developmental characteristics and needs of each child – intellectually, socially, physically, emotionally, and spiritually—along their journey. Our aim is to support children’s capability to build the skills they need to become adults who not only want to contribute to the world around them but who have the passion to do so in exceptional ways. We work to build respectful long-term relationships with parents as partners in the educational path of their children. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/1d0e85d7-d86d-4d4d-b473-985ab6f1fb72/IMG_20210722_091014597.jpg The Crescent Difference - We Understand How Children Learn Children are born with a natural curiosity. They want to know about the world and their part in it. While cultures and technologies change over time, the milestones of human development remain constant. Montessori education is aligned with children’s developmental stages, maximizing their learning potential at each level. This natural approach supports their curiosity with the rewards of the joy of discovery. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/4f2951d1-fffd-4f47-bac0-29ed2314d6c5/IMG_3762.JPEG The Crescent Difference - We Allow Uninterrupted Time for Learning The school day at Crescent is organized into blocks of uninterrupted time. This schedule, by design, supports a natural level of concentration and allows children to progress through the school day at their own pace. Children experience learning as knowledge that becomes understanding and moves toward application in the real world. The gift of time enables this important process to unfold. The opportunity to engage in meaningful, interesting self-chosen activity keeps the joy for learning alive and motivates children to want to learn more. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/eb609bef-a5e4-4583-bec8-5f5627b9c70f/VhSOFI7g.jpeg The Crescent Difference - We Create Active Child Centered Learning Environments Everyone knows children were designed to move. Active learning in our intentionally designed classrooms provides young children with opportunities for choice about where to work, who they work with, and how to structure the work of the school day. Hands on activities develop and refine physical skills supporting not only intellectual competence but human capability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/9d219240-b6fb-4b31-921b-ebae8dcf0dbc/IMG_3695.JPEG The Crescent Difference - We Foster Independence From the youngest in our classroom communities to the oldest, our staff guides each child in their quest for independence. Children are trusted with real responsibilities through meaningful tasks each and every day. In this way, as contributing members of the school community, their confidence in themselves and connection to others is intertwined. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/f4a72074-3237-4b31-acc5-a3d377664c2b/IMG_20210723_110059182.jpg The Crescent Difference - We Create a Community of Eager Learners We encourage our students to develop their unique talents and to teach them to others. Because children of different ages learn naturally and enthusiastically from one another, Montessori schools are built around a child’s developmental levels instead of single age groups. The three-year multi age classroom community benefits students through peer learning and peer teaching. Our collaborative social climate provides countless life-lessons in an atmosphere of support that appropriately enhances the social emotional development at each developmental level. https://www.crescentmontessori.com/a-typical-day daily 0.75 2026-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/f03f2cb4-8e9b-4166-8b0d-229c0e2bc340/IMG_3783.JPEG A Typical Day - 8:30am: Arrival We open the door to greet the students as they arrive. Ms. Persy stands at the door to greet the students and parents. The child greets the teacher with a “Good morning” and a smile and then hangs up his/her jacket inside the classroom. This morning greeting reinforces our practice of Grace and Courtesy and allows the students to have a predictable and enjoyable start of the day. Miss Isabella sits on the blue carpet and greets the students one by one and encourages them to find their name tag in the circle and be seated. Miss Isabella reads a story until all the students have arrived. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/96acc941-b999-4b3a-8588-2659c2159490/IMG_3644.JPEG A Typical Day - 8:45am: Morning Gathering Once the students have arrived, Ms. Persy begins the morning gathering with the “Buenos Dias” song. We review the days of the week, the calendar, the weather and our Grace and Courtesy. Group presentations are presented during the morning gathering. A special helper is chosen to help set the water bottles and snacks on the snack table. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/9e63d184-a619-46a9-a025-812255c40ac6/IMG_3726.JPEG A Typical Day - 9:00am-11:00am: Uninterrupted Work Cycle #1 & Snack Ms. Persy invites the students, one at a time to choose work. Each day the children have the choice of which lessons to work on or observe. While the students work independently, Ms. Persy provides individual lessons while Ms. Gloria observes the children and helps with any issue that might arise during the morning. All morning, the children can serve themselves the snack that they brought from home. After a child finishes his/her snack, the child cleans the area and moves onto the next project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/9edc8283-749f-461c-bba6-c5b6394de38b/IMG_3644.JPEG A Typical Day - 11:00am: Mid-day Gathering Ms. Persy rings the bell. The students know it’s time to tidy up their activities and come sit on the blue carpet for circle time. During the gathering, we read books, sing songs and learn some Spanish words and songs. Two children at the time are sent to the restroom to wash their hands and get ready for lunch. A special helper set the water bottles on the cart. The children line up to go to the garden to eat lunch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/bdaee77f-d89d-4b35-929a-16c68354fa66/IMG_3740.JPEG A Typical Day - 11:30am: Lunchtime First dismissal of younger children occurs at 11:30am, and the other children enrolled for Little Lunches and the Full Day program stay for lunch. Lunch is a calm and enjoyable social time. The children learn how to place their placemat on the lunch table and place their lunch items and cloth napkin on the table. Eating lunch is a great way to reinforce the importance of Grace and Courtesy in the Montessori environment. After lunch, the children return their lunch items to their lunchbox, put their lunchboxes away and enjoy outdoor play time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/edb4c158-a2b7-4ee9-a264-539f15100682/IMG_4823.jpeg A Typical Day - 12:00pm: Outdoor Play Children can climb on the climbing structure, run with friends, check on the marigolds, and play with additional outdoor toys chosen for the season. Outdoor play allows the children the opportunity to follow their imagination and play after their morning of focused and determined work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/bef8a8b9-191c-4b4b-b3d1-4e558b3d5acc/IMG_3716.jpg A Typical Day - 1:30pm: Clean up, rest time, Uninterrupted Work Cycle #2 and Snack The children help clean up and put the toys away. The children line up to go inside. The students rest for a few minutes. Ms. Persy invites the children, one at a time to choose work. This is our second work cycle. During this time, Ms. Persy gives individual and group lessons to the children. In the afternoon, the children can serve themselves the snack that they brought from home. After a child finishes his/her snack, the child cleans the area and chooses work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/575b3027-0283-47e0-9e7b-b883ac1116a5/IMG_3654.JPEG A Typical Day - 2:45pm: Clean-up and End of Day Gathering Ms. Persy rings the bell. The children put their work away and gather around the blue carpet. The children choose their job for the day. A child vacuums the carpet, while another child sweeps the floor. A few children clean and wipe the tables, while another child takes out the trash. Once the room is tidy for the next day, the children go back to the blue carpet to wait to be picked up. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/23380e12-d32c-434e-b217-e77cb86c493a/IMG_3780.JPEG A Typical Day - 3:00pm: Dismissal The children had another day filled with impressive efforts and enjoyment.

Primary Program Five distinct areas make up the Primary-level Prepared Environment: Practical life activities enhance the development of task organization and cognitive order through care of self, care of the environment, coordination of movement and exercises of grace and courtesy. Sensorial activities enable children to order, classify, and describe sensory impressions in relation to length, width, temperature, mass, color and other measurements of the world. Mathematics makes use of manipulative materials to enable children to internalize concepts of number, symbol, sequence, operations, and memorization of basic facts. Using self-correcting materials, children learn not only number recognition and place value, but also problem solving and development of a visual image of mathematical concepts. Language arts include spoken language development, written expression, reading, the study of grammar, creative dramatics, and literature. Basic skills in writing and reading are developed through the use of sandpaper letters, the movable alphabet, and vocabulary enrichment activities, which allow children to link sound and letter symbols effortlessly and to express their thoughts through writing. Cultural activities guide the children to explore the basics in geography, history, and life sciences. Art, music and movement education and cultural immersion for Spanish language are part of the integrated cultural curriculum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/1634876426736-POY20G38H375DGBOXNI1/vwuQooRg.jpeg Programs - Primary Program The Primary environment is designed to support the social, physical, and cognitive skills of each child. Its important task is to provide students with an early foundation that includes: a positive attitude toward learning inner trust and confidence a sense of order pride in the physical environment an abiding curiosity a habit of concentration the ability to make decisions self-discipline a sense of responsibility to other members of the class, school, and community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612d1c5f96827c254df3e60e/1634876766176-TCX1C45EWAI0VGT1R85N/IMG_5964-768x1024.jpeg Programs - Primary Program In addition to our prepared environment, our Garden, Cultural and Arts Enrichment programs are naturally woven into our Montessori curriculum Greenhouse & Gardening Curriculum: Crescent’s expansive open gardens are seen as a natural extension of our classroom. Our children have a garden program where they learn about the life cycle of plants, fruits and vegetables of the season. In 2020 a small greenhouse was built in our garden. Along with several flower beds, compost bin an abundance of tools and books, our garden curriculum allows our children to connect with nature and the food that they eat. Music Curriculum: The Primary children enjoy weekly music classes, songs are our sung daily in class and our garden is outfitted with a newly built music wall. Spanish As A Second Language Curriculum: Spanish is taught as a second language in our classroom. Children are provided materials in the classroom in Spanish and taught and sing songs in Spanish. https://www.crescentmontessori.com/programs-1 daily 0.75 2021-09-15 https://www.crescentmontessori.com/programs-1/big-kids-4rrdt monthly 0.5 2020-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e8b84ccdeec236234bf2c3b/1597773125254-HT6JI735I98FPFIAIXN9/schedule%402x.jpg Programs - Big Kids https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e8b84ccdeec236234bf2c3b/1597773151466-CL016QVUK2WP3PTO7SO8/wand%402x.jpg Programs - Big Kids https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e8b84ccdeec236234bf2c3b/1597773139499-1M3FFI6SJ3UXK2ZKR2JM/boot%402x.jpg Programs - Big Kids https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e8b84ccdeec236234bf2c3b/1597773188842-DYM9U5L86OCSJN4JKZSV/video%402x.jpg Programs - Big Kids https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e8b84ccdeec236234bf2c3b/1586539849461-Q4LO2ZPSTHBK3M078R5W/2273002.jpg Programs - Big Kids - Creative learning through making and moving It all begins with an idea.
