A Play-Based Approach to Learning

We use the Montessori approach to learning, which is play-based. Children are naturally inclined to play, and the Montessori method builds on this motivation by using play as a context for learning. This allows the child to explore, experiment, and come across problems and solve them in a playful way.

A play-based approach to learning allows the child to initiate learning and is supported by the teacher. So, for example, if the child is playing with blocks, the teacher can ask him or her questions which encourage problem-solving and prediction. “What do you think will happen if you place all the blocks on top of each other?” for example.

Play-based early years programs can be free play, which is a spontaneous activity initiated by the child, and it can also be guided play which is also initiated by the child but has the teacher involved as another player. Both have their benefits when it comes to the child’s learning. Playing also helps the child to enjoy learning and want to do more. It encourages curiosity, imagination, enthusiasm, and perhaps above all, persistence.

In short, the Montessori method teaches the child a lifelong love of learning for the sake of learning, and the earlier the child achieves that, the better.
