Curriculum 6-11 years

At Montessori School of Bucharest, we compare the requirements of the national curriculum with the Montessori curriculum, to ensure that all mandatory areas in the traditional system are covered. The expansive nature and purpose of the Montessori curriculum gives children the opportunity to cover many topics that are not included in the traditional curriculum.

The Montessori curriculum is organized as an upward plan of interrelated information. The lessons are introduced in a simple and concrete way in the first years of school and are reintroduced several times over the years, at increasingly high levels of abstraction and complexity. Each subject is correlated with the others. One lesson naturally leads to many other lessons. In accordance with the method that best represents him, the child exercises skills and achieves goals by using a wide range of Montessori materials. The child gradually passes at his own pace, from the concrete to the abstract understanding. When the concepts are introduced, we start with the whole and then move on to studying the parts in more detail. Each main theme of the three years included in the curriculum is studied thoroughly and more and more abstractly.
