The Elementary Program at Bergen-Lafayette Montessori
Elementary children possess great physical, mental and emotional capabilities. In this stage of development, children are learning about the social relationships that exist in their society.
“Imagination does not become great until human beings, given the courage and the strength, use it to create.”
- Maria Montessori
Our Elementary classroom builds on the strengths of having learners of several ages (6 years-11 years) working together. Rather than trying to dampen student enthusiasm for being with their friends, the Elementary classroom supports collaboration so that students work together to research the big questions they have about the universe, the nation in which they live, the plants in their garden, or historical figures they admire.
