Brooksfield Montessori school, located in McLean, Virginia, not far from Vienna, houses preschool through elementary school children.  The private school, unique not only for it's location on five gorgeous, wooded acres, but for it's mix of Montessori and traditional educational values, focuses on helping children develop an excitement for learning.  The children in the preschool and Kindergarten Montessori program as well as the elementary Montessori program are taught to be thinkers and problem solvers and to follow their natural curiosity. That innate curiosity is further ignited by Brooksfield School's superb teaching staff, a group of highly trained, experienced, Montessori certified teachers who guide the children using didactic materials that help them learn through experience.  Mixed with that method, is a pinch of traditional large group and "paper and pencil" activities that expose the children to group instruction and cooperative learning, helping them become well rounded students. Now THAT is a recipe for success!

Children from all over the DC metropolitan area come to tour Brooksfield private Montessori school, which is located in McLean, VA.  What they find is a warm, happy, industrious atmosphere where children and parents alike are welcomed with friendly greetings and the happy sounds of children.  They peek into classrooms in the lower school to see children in the Montessori preschool program and the Montessori Kindergarten program spooning lentils, counting objects, washing windows, having snack, painting, doing multiplication with beads, learning to read using the movable alphabet, writing creative stories, classifying living and non-living objects, studying the continents of the world, for example.  Or, they pop into the Montessori Elementary program to find students labeling parts of speech, working on "infinity street," writing poetry and studying iambic pentameter, studying respected artists, or making human element chains while learning the periodic table, for instance.   Touring parents are able to see the magic and artistry that makes Brooksfield Montessori school one of the most respected private schools in the area, something you have to see to believe.

Brooksfield Montessori School in Northern Virginia, offers a wonderful full-day Kindergarten program. The program is largely Montessori based, of course, but it also incorporates a few main-stream activities, such as small and large group lessons and some work in workbooks.  The children are mixed with the preschool Montessori children in the morning and then split into an all Kindergarten group while the little ones rest or nap. Further, the Kindergarten children have opportunities to work with the elementary program students during a program Brooksfield calls "buddy reading," where Kindergarten children read with Upper School children. And, Kindergartners are invited to join Brooksfield Players, the school's theatre group that is comprised of children ages five through ten.  Brooksfield's comprehensive program also includes formal lessons in art, music, movement, Spanish and Outdoor Adventures, to name a few.
