Elementary Program (Ages 6–12)

Our Elementary Program offers a full-day Montessori experience for children aged 6 to 12. Designed to support independence, curiosity, and confidence, this program brings together live teacher guidance, rich hands-on learning, and a connected global classroom, all from the comfort of home.

Children explore big ideas, make connections across subjects, and develop strong academic and life skills. The program is ideal for families seeking a structured, high-quality Montessori education in a flexible, virtual format.

Content & Curriculum (CosmicEducation)

Our curriculum follows authentic Montessori principles and includes:

  • Language & Literacy

  • Mathematics & Geometry

  • Biology, Chemistry & Physical Science

  • History & Geography

  • Art, Music, and Physical Education

At this stage, we introduce Cosmic Education, a hallmark of Montessori elementary. Children explore the universe, life on Earth, human culture, and the interdependence of all things through imaginative, story-driven lessons known as the Great Lessons. These inspire curiosity and spark deep, independent exploration.

All lessons are guided by AMI-trained Montessori educators and tailored to each child’s developmental needs and pace of progress.
