M3 Montessori Homeschooling Sensorial Curriculum

What Is The Montessori Primary Sensorial Curriculum?

Searching for a multi-sensory homeschool curriculum? Look no further! Montessori is the original whole brain learning methodology. The pedagogy has valued teaching concepts by involving multiple areas in the brain and engaging all of the sesnes for over a century.

In fact, the primary Sensorial curriculum is a truly unique component of the Montessori method because it trains kids to view the world with an analytical mindset and to explore using all of their senses. Through the use of focused multi-sensory learning activities, this refinement of a child’s senses helps them learn to focus for long periods of time, a quality which we now call "grit." Modern research tells us that a child’s ability to develop grit is the single most reliable predictor of success in life. 

What To Keep In Mind When Using Montessori Sensorial Activities?

According to Montessori philosophy, sensorial impressions actually begin at birth (and possibly sooner!) A child’s first few years of life are the most important years for development as a whole. These Montessori sensorial materials were designed to develop and refine a child’s senses. Through this multi-sensory curriculum, a child learns to become aware of details and is provided materials to learn to discriminate and appreciate said details.

With the introduction of Montessori sensorial materials, children develop their:

• visual sense through careful discrimination based on qualities such as height and width
• tactile sense through the introduction of concepts such as rough and smooth
• olfactory sense by completing such activities as literally stopping to smell the roses on a nature walk
• gustatory sense when helping with food preparation and tasting to see if the right amount of spices has been added
• auditory sense through incorporating music and songs into daily life
