The MEIPN Early Childhood course is a study of Montessori philosophy and curriculum, and of the developmental and cultural factors that impact a classroom composed of two-and-a-half to six-year-old children. The academic phase offers the knowledge and practical skills needed to prepare an environment that nurtures the physical, spiritual, emotional, and cognitive development of the young child. Respect for the individual, support of family, and differences in learning style and pace are emphasized. Other aspects of the teacher's role, including parent education and auxiliary staff training, are addressed. The yearlong practicum provides the student teacher with an opportunity to practice and refine the learning experienced in the academic phase. Practicum requirements are described in detail in the Practicum Phase section of this handbook.
