Montessori-Based

Born 1870 in Chiaravalle, Italy, Dr. Maria Montessori, Italy's first female physician, developed a unique educational approach that for nearly 100 years has been successfully applied to millions of children worldwide, starting with children with learning difficulties and extending today to children of all intellectual and socio-economic levels.

The Montessori method considers every child to be intelligent and highly capable of learning when placed in an environment and with materials that provide them with respect and privacy. It includes three key elements:

• Motor education
• Sensory education
• Language

With high-quality manipulatives, Three Period Lessons, multi-sensory lessons, and respectful language throughout, ShillerMath helps children to learn math and language arts and to become productive members of society throughout their lives.

Multi-Sensory with Catchy Songs

Our Montessori-based curricula is so effective because it recognizes that children have four primary learning styles:

• Each learning style reaches a different part of the brain. Without stimulating all parts of the brain, necessary connections are not made and learning is shallow and memory is short. That's why with ShillerMath children attain deeper understanding and longer retention.
• Every concept in the curriculum is covered from each learning style, ensuring a solid foundation for years to come.

Our songs are fully integrated into the curriculum. Children - and surprisingly, parents - love them. Take a listen!

Works for All Students

• Whether your child is gifted, ASD or normal, is a current or former Montessori student, or not, is a pre-K student or in junior high, ShillerMath ensures that math and language arts meets his or her unique situation and needs.
• Helping to ensure your child's success is our 2C approach, which provides a proven methodology for students to get both Competency and Closure. In practice, a student may do ten lessons in the space of an hour, and the eleventh lesson may take a week. No problem! That student is focusing efficiently on gaining both competency and closure, working at their own pace and using their own, specific abilities and knowledge to progress, without the anxiety and stress that so often accompany learning.
• That's why ShillerMath works so effectively for all students. And why so many parents have found ShillerMath to be the only curriculum they need for their family.

Pinpoint Placement Testing

ShillerMath provides a battery of diagnostic tests that:

1. Pinpoint exactly what holes exist in a child's understanding; and
2. Specify exactly what lessons to revisit to fix the problem

When children successfully complete the ShillerMath tests, they score well on standardized testing that is becoming the norm in middle schools and have the concepts, tools, and approach to make future learning fun and rewarding.

Have a 6 (or 13) year old? Other products say, OK, here's the 1st (or 8th) grade curriculum, that's where you start. But what if your child - of any age - has holes in his or her Kindergarten or even pre-K math or language arts foundation? Because the exact activities to complete are shown for each incorrect answer, these tests ensure that every student has a solid foundation before new concepts are introduced, avoiding the boring repetition of easy activities your child already knows and focusing instead on problem areas.
