Montessori Preschool Curriculum
at Kidoz Montessori in Chennai
At Kidoz Montessori, our Montessori preschool curriculum is meticulously crafted to support the holistic development of children aged 1.5 to 6 years. Rooted in the Montessori philosophy, we emphasize independence, curiosity, and a lifelong passion for learning.
Core Areas of Our Montessori Curriculum
-
1. Practical Life Activities
These exercises develop essential life skills, fostering independence, coordination, and concentration. Children engage in tasks like pouring, dressing, and cleaning, enabling them to care for themselves and their surroundings.
2. Sensorial Learning
Our sensorial materials refine the senses, assisting children in distinguishing and categorizing information. Activities involve exploring textures, colors, shapes, sounds, and smells, laying the foundation for complex learning.
3. Language Development
We enhance communication skills through listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Utilizing phonetic awareness and tactile materials like sandpaper letters, children progress from recognizing sounds to forming words and sentences.
-
4. Mathematics
Introducing mathematical concepts with hands-on materials, we guide children from concrete to abstract thinking. They explore numbers, operations, geometry, and problem-solving, developing a deep understanding of mathematical principles.
5. Cultural Studies
This area broadens children’s global understanding, covering geography, history, science, art, and music. Through interactive activities, children gain respect for diverse cultures and an appreciation for global interconnectedness.

Individualized Learning Approach in Our Montessori Preschool
Recognizing each child’s uniqueness, our educators observe and assess individual interests and developmental stages. This personalized approach allows us to tailor lessons, ensuring every child progresses at their own pace and reaches their full potential.
Prepared Environment at Kidoz Montessori
Our classrooms are thoughtfully organized to encourage autonomy and exploration. Child-sized furniture, accessible shelves, and a variety of Montessori materials create an inviting space where children feel empowered to choose and engage in activities independently.
Mixed-Age Classrooms
Implementing mixed-age groupings, we allow younger children to learn from older peers, while older children reinforce their knowledge by mentoring others. This community dynamic fosters collaboration, empathy, and a sense of responsibility among students.
Assessment and Progress Tracking
Continuous observation and documentation enable us to monitor each child’s growth across all developmental domains. Instead of traditional grading, we provide comprehensive feedback through regular parent-teacher meetings and detailed reports, highlighting achievements and areas for growth.
At Kidoz Montessori, our Montessori preschool curriculum is more than an academic framework; it’s a pathway to developing confident, capable, and compassionate individuals ready to embrace lifelong learning.
