What is The Montessori Homeschooling
by Nishtha Garg Promoter Recent surveys indicate that parents are actually quite fed up with the public school systems where much of the learning is superficial and compulsory. They are also concerned about the negative school environment ranging from drug abuse to negative peer pressure.As a result, we have a surprising mix of people who form the homeschooling
world of today. They cut across all religious and regional borders. Their main
aim is to provide meaningful and productive learning through a method that
strengthens the bond between the various members of the family.
Why Homeschooling
All these families have one thing in common - a long enduring commitment to the sanctity of childhood. The children in these families are accorded a primary position. Many believe, and rightly so, that homeschooling allows parents to bring up children in a more natural and nurturing environment.

Public schools
can make one nervous, diffident, and downright mean. Children who get schooled
at home are protected from these damaging negative influences until they reach
an age where they can handle it. Homeschooling draws the whole family into the
almost religious task of schooling. Everyone is put to work. The parents form a
bond with their children.
What is Montessori Homeschooling
Developed from the work of Dr. Maria Montessori, this style of teaching aims at duplicating natural laws that a child faces in life. Thus the aim of the teacher is to control the environment and not the child. It was observed that children who are left free to interact with their environment developed an innate self-discipline, love for order, and natural curiosity.
The Montessori Method
The Montessori method of teaching is especially suitable to the preschooler who wants to do everything by himself. Finding ways in which your child can participate in the cleaning, washing, cooking, gardening and other 'adult' activities set the perfect backdrop for the learning experience. By providing such opportunities for independence, the child's self-esteem also gets a huge boost.
Creative Activities
Artistic, cultural and scientific activities abound in the Montessori 3-6 class. There is no TV, junk food, or a computer. Material is selected carefully. The child is never forced to work. Instead, he is encouraged to do things that interest him, and the teacher picks up the teaching from cues given by the child.

The Montessori method focuses on the child's inborn ability to learn
from his surroundings. Thus the teacher aims to encourage the natural curiosity
of the child. He is never forced to learn or explore. When the child
understands why he needs to learn something, he will love the learning process.
