Northumberland Christian School
Montessori Based PreSchool |
The Bible forms the foundation of the school (Preschool - High School).
Instruction from the Bible is incorporated in all subject areas.
Because "learning to learn" is an acquired skill that must
be developed early, the early learning center at N.C.S. provides
preschool students of varied ages the opportunity to learn together
and separately in a prepared environment. Each child, no matter the
age, has a separate timetable for learning. An environment has been
established where the child will learn by "doing" within
the child's timetable. Manipulative "jobs" fill the prepared
environment and are designed to help the child in learning a skill or
concept. Our goal is to establish an environment where the child will
enjoy learning.
