Chaminade University Early Childhood Education & Montessori Programs

Happy Spring! Even though we’re distanced from the classroom, kids can continue learning! We hope to see our students practice germinating seeds for their own garden at home #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyeducation #ece

Last week, our on-ground Montessori Methods Summer 2019 courses kicked off. The students have been hard at work learning about culturally appropriate practices and the Montessori methods. Happy #montessorimonday! #cuhecemontessori

While physically distanced, we keep in touch by sharing the work we’ve been doing at home! It’s great to see our friends get creative with open-ended lessons like these. #montessorischools #earlychildhoodeducation #chaminadeuniversity #hawaiicatholicschools

Movement, or physical activity, is an essential factor in intellectual growth, which depends upon impressions received from the outside. Through movement we come in contact with external reality, and eventually acquire abstract ideas. -Maria Montessori #earlychildhoodeducation #montessorischool #earlyeducation #chaminadeuniversity #montessoriprimary

How long is a minute? Students explore the answer to this question through concrete representation - the way in which developmental research suggests is most meaningful to young children.

In the 3-6 classroom, the range of childrens’ ages allows many opportunities for collaboration. Our community spirit is growing strong #montessorischool #earlychildhoodeducation #chaminadeuniversity #schoolsofhawaii
