Annika attends Childrens’ Manor Montessori School and has been doing so since she was 5 months old. She is now 3. I confess that I am totally ignorant about Montessori curriculum so I have no idea how well they follow it at her school.  However I am flabbergasted at the kind of things that forms Annika’s syllabus. Apart from the usual letters & numbers & colors & months of the year – here is a smattering of the things that Annika learnt in school this year:
Geography :Â Georgraphical landforms such as islands, archipelagos, isthmus, straits, bays,
peninsula
World: European animals & minerals, Australian animals, South America food, sports and animals.
Science: Three states of matter. Experiments to prove that hot air expands and how plants absorb water
