Zaragoza Schoolhouse is a good option for children with high abilities.
Montessori schools are a good option for families who have an AACC child because:
- Mix ages in the same environment: Montessori schools do not rely on the year of birth of the children to form the groups but on their period of development, so you will find groups from 3 to 6 years old, from 6 to 9 years old and from 9 to 12 years old (the last two can be joined in some schools). This is beneficial for AACC children because, in general, they are children who like to be with older children.
- Respect the student's pace. In the same way that a child in Montessori will not be forced to learn to read, for example, if he is not ready, you must also accompany the child who shows signs of wanting to learn to read much earlier than "expected". In Montessori there is the maxim "follow the child".
- They are not expository classes, made in a homogeneous way for a group. The teachers (guides) give personalized attention, with presentations prepared for the stage in which the child is according to his or her development.
- Highly qualified teachers. Architects and teachers are at the heart of our school. With an initial university education, we have also been trained in Montessori pedagogy through the International Montessori Association. Day by day the Zaragoza SchoolHouse team continues to train and update itself. Consult our team in this link.
- Expanded curriculum. Latin, philosophy, in the area of Humanities and Science and Mathematics on the science side are subjects that are expanded or included in the curriculum. With the aim of expanding the field of work of our students, motivate them and learn to the best of their abilities.
- Multilingual environment. English language is offered from the age of 2 years old, and from the age of 6 we introduce French language in primary school. We are an American school and our community of families is international. In addition, starting in Secondary we have exchanges with other Montessori schools in Europe and the United States.
- Computational thinking. From the age of 9 the curriculum of Sciences and Mathematics is combined with computational thinking in order to develop complex projects in which to learn different programming languages.
Flexibility and adaptation
At Zaragoza SchoolHouse we observe each child. The teachers or guides evaluate what the student is ready to learn. And, apart from that, they guide and accompany him or her so that he or she can get the best out of him or herself in order to learn autonomously. In short, everything an AACC child wants: to have the freedom to decide what he/she wants to work on, when and how (within limits, of course).
We adapt to each student thanks to our low ratio and individualized curriculum. We know that each child is unique and we guide them to develop their full potential and talent.
If you think your child is AA CC or is diagnosed but is not comfortable or is having difficulties, contact us and we will talk.
