Northstar Montessori, under the direction of Tami Elliott, has been providing quality care for children in the Saline area for over 18 years. With two convenient locations on Ann Arbor-Saline Road and Maple Road, we provide a safe, loving, home-like enrivonment for children to learn and grow, using the Montessori method.
At Northstar Montessori, we believe young children learn by doing. They acquire knowledge about their world through playful interaction with objects and people. Children are motivated to learn by their own desire to make sense of their world. We are committed to providing a developmentally appropriate program with the help of trained teachers, using a variety of materials and equipment. We engage children in an environment that is child-initiated, child-directed, and teacher supported. Best of all, we have lots of fun.
Our director, Ms. Tami, has created several videos on the principles of Montessori including lessons in many of our curriculum areas. Below, we have included links to some of these videos. Additional links can be found on "Our Curriculum" page. By clicking on the links, you will be directed to EHOW.com, which is separate from the Northstar website.
