About Ms. Anu
I bring a diverse and enriching set of qualifications to Valley Blossoms Montessori. As a parent myself, my journey to understanding the importance of a nurturing environment began with my own children. As a parent volunteer, I found joy in helping in my kid’s classrooms, which sparked a passion for teaching. I pursued education in early childhood development and now have the privilege of shaping young minds and partnering with families. My qualifications reflect a commitment to holistic child development, blending the arts, education, well-being, and safety. I look forward to sharing this wealth of experience and knowledge with the young minds at Valley Blossoms Montessori.

The Curriculum
The Early Childhood classroom offers your child 5 areas of study: Practical Life, Sensorial, Math, Language, and Cultural Studies. Children Choose their work from among the self-correcting materials displayed on open shelves during work periods, using this base, can move into the academic areas. As children develop and mature, they gradually transition from concrete thinking to abstract thinking, making connections and understanding concepts in a more sophisticated way. When they are developmentally ready.
Practical Life
Children learn daily-life skills, such as how to get dressed, prepare snacks, set the table, and care for plants and animals. They also learn appropriate social interactions, being kind and helpful, listening without interrupting, and resolving conflicts peacefully. In addition to teaching specific skills, Practical Life activities promote independence, fine- and gross-motor coordination.
Sensorial
Children refine skills in perceiving the world through their different senses, and learn how to describe and name their experiences—for example, rough and smooth, perceived through touch. Sensorial learning helps children classify their surroundings and create order. It lays the foundation for learning by developing the ability to classify, sort, and discriminate—skills necessary in math, geometry, and language.
Math
Through hands-on activities, children learn to identify numerals and match them to their quantity, understand place-value and the base-10 system, and practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They also explore patterns in the numbering system.
Language
Activities throughout the Early Childhood classroom teach language, help children acquire vocabulary, and develop skills needed for writing and reading. The ability to write, a precursor to reading, is taught first. Using hands-on materials, children learn letter sounds, how to combine sounds to make words, how to build sentences, and how to use a pencil. Once these skills are acquired, children spontaneously learn to read.
Cultural Studies
A wide range of subjects, including history, geography, science, art, and music, are integrated in lessons in the cultural area of the curriculum. Children learn about their own community and the world around them. Discovering similarities and differences among people and places helps them develop an understanding and appreciation of the diversity of our world, and a respect for all living things.
