Campus
Founded in 1971, Casa Montessori has been educating students from preschool through 6th grade for over 50 years. Our experienced faculty and staff are dedicated to providing the finest Montessori education for our students. Our beautiful campus, located in Northridge, just a few blocks east of the CSUN campus, is landscaped with grassy knolls, beautiful garden areas, and many shade trees. Our children learn and play in spacious, sun-filled classrooms and activity-filled play areas.
Classrooms
Students in Montessori classrooms work with specially designed learning materials, manipulating and investigating them to master the lessons they embody. Each material, as presented by the teacher, teaches one skill or concept at a time. Built-in “control of error” allows the child to determine if he or she has done the exercise correctly. Materials offer multiple levels of challenge and can be used repeatedly at different developmental levels. Students use real objects and actions to translate abstract ideas into concrete form.
